Fashion Trends Summer 2013: Midi Skirts and Dresses

Hello Lovelies!

Since I am a fan of vintage styles it should be very obvious that I do love midi skirts and dresses, but it is still very easy to find midi's that are of terrible taste and ill-fitting. Below I have some examples of midi skirts and dresses that have either terrible prints, or are oddly shaped. Not all prints work well on all shapes of clothing, some of these prints may work well for other pieces, but paired with the midi shape they just don't flatter.

Before I move onto my examples here are a couple pictures of celebrities sporting midi skirts and dresses and looking beautiful.

Below are some examples of how I would wear midi dresses and skirts. I absolutely love vintage reproduction midi styles, and would love to fill at least half my closet with them. Some people tend to think that midi's are for older women, but it all depends on the style and the print, choose the right one and they can be very fashion forward.

Fashion Trends Summer 2013: Polka Dots

Hello Lovelies!
 
We are finally onto the trend of polka dots, which I happen to love and own a lot of. Being a fan of retro clothing/rockabilly/psychobilly polka dots are a key part of my wardrobe and I sport them I'd say at least once a week in some way. I own polka dot undergarments, headbands, bandanas, tops, skirts, shoes etc. At this point it is very simple to find pieces adorned in polka dots in pretty much every store, but there are still some pieces that are just not fashionable due to shape of the piece, and sometimes size of the polka dots, such as the examples below. A key factor in looking great in polka dots is choosing the correct size polka dot for your body, and choosing pieces that properly fit. The pieces in the "how not to" category are there because of either the shape, the concept of the piece, or because they easily make you look entirely too much like a dalmatian.
