The holiday season is one of the most exciting times of the year, but finding the perfect dress to wear to all of the suave seasonal soirées is another story.

    For curvy girlies...

    For all you babes with rockin’ hourglass figures, show off your killer bod with a tight fitted bodycon dress. The hip golden studs give this frock the ultimate cutting edge vibe and the lines ensure to enhance your curves. Pair it with a super snazzy pair of heels and some stunning accessories and you’re ready to (jingle bell) rock!

    For boyish babes…

    Is your body petite with zero curves? Create the illusion of a more hourglass-esque figure with a peplum dress that amps up your waist and provides you with a curvier silhouette. Pale pink is so sweet for party dressing and the jersey fabric means you can easily take it from casual to formal, depending on how fancy the fête.

    For long-legged ladies…

    So you’ve got legs that go on for miles and miles? Show off those model legs with a short cut dress that allows your best feature to shine on! This taupe stunner is a high-fashion frock that’s sure to rock any long ‘n’ lean chica’s frame! Love how a rad embellished cuff adds the ultimate bling factor.

    For pear-shaped pretties…

    If you’ve got bigger hips and a bitty waist, then focus on the features you want to flaunt! This princessy gown is cinched at the waist with a flower belt to totally flatter your mini middle. The girly vibe of this dress is super pretty and will leave all eyes on you this party season.

I know for a fact that my friend told my crush I like him. What should i say to my friend, and what should I do about my crush?

 

hey! ask her about it and see what she says. If you guys talk it out you'll both get a chance to say what's on your mind. As far as your crush goes, do you know if he likes you back? If so maybe you should ask him to hang out sometime.

my cousins wedding is on the 29 and i need to buy something to wear that day. the problem is that i never wear dresses or skirts instead i wear a pair of black dress pants for school concerts etc.i am allowed to wear either a dress or a skirt w/ a nice blouse to the wedding but since i don't really like skirts or dresses i don't know what to wear.




Hey girl! This is a great excuse to go shopping and spend a little extra dough on yourself! Grab some of your best friends and head to the mall one day. Pick out a bunch of different options in great colors and try them on. Buy what you feel best in! Good luck and have fun!

SO I am getting ready for my Christmas formal in a week and I'm looking for a dress. I have a curvy body. But have slightly a pear shape in the hips that don't look too well. I want to get a look to slim them down but also show off my abs I recently developed. But I don't want anything too skin tight. Any ideas? Thanks!




Hey girl! An peplum dress could be super cute! There are so many cute options out that it might be best to grab your best gals and go shopping this weekend. Try on a bunch of different styles and colors.  Go with what you feel your best in. Have fun! 




xoxo

I am sort of a mix of pear shaped, hourglass, and I have really long legs... What should I do??

 

Hey 1Derfulllife, look for clothes that make you feel comfortable. Anything that focuses on your waist will look cute. Sweater dresses with belts would be cute. High waisted skirts, jeans and shorts would work too. Hope this helps! Xoxo
