Thicker legs? Try to find a thicker denim fabric. Its will conceal cellulite and bumps more than a thinner fabric. Short? Try a higher waisted flare leg. ALWAYS wear a heel or a wedge and hem 1/4″ from the ground. Aren’t willing to try white denim? Try a nude denim. LIke AG pictured above.
My favorite brands : Gap long and lean / Joe’s Jeans cropped white denim / AG / Seven for All Mankind
It’s all about daring to be different and knowing how to pull it off. I love the contrast of dressy and casual. In LA, it’s how you pull of dressy when you don’t want to be over dressed and casual when everyone else looks like a slob. Try straw hats with beaded purses, silk blouses with sneakers, stripes and prints, big necklaces with high necklines, sweat bands with crystal jewelry.
Yes, you need a nude shoe. Yes, it should be YOUR skin tone {Which may be tricky and troublesome to find, but it’s necessary}. But alas, a new texture: Cork! And for all you milky skin owners, you can throw the “it must match your skin tone” rule out the window. Wear cork, and lots of it. The matching clutch, earrings, belt….go wine, I mean wild {oh the euphemisms for this blog}.
Feeling crafty? Cork is cheap and easy to work with! Cut it up and glue it!
I found darling things at Corx. Also check out Elaine Turner, and Kate Spade.
