Vivenne Cinch Dress by Kiyonna

Today I wanted to take a closer look at a dress which will make you look effortlessly chic, proving to you that adding a touch of chic to an outfit need not require, well, much effort!

The dress I’m referring to is the Vivienne Cinch Dress by Kiyonna which features simple yet very elegant elements such as a faux wrap silhouette with gathering at left side seam and 3/4 length sleeves which essentially are the foundations of a flattering dress. Made from distinctly dressy fabric in richly hued colors and well-placed cascading ruffles, with this dress you can easily get away with keeping accessories to a minimum. The dress on it’s own will make you stand out.

The Vivienne Cinch Dress comes in four different colors: cobalt blue, black, perfectly purple, and stargazer teal. It is available from size 0X (10/12) to size 5X (30/32), and retails at only $98.00!

IGIGI Introduces Diana, the Curvy Goddess Dress

Diana Goddess Plus Size Dress from IGIGI

Over the past couple of weeks, as I have previously noted on the Scoop, IGIGI has added a number of gorgeous new gowns to their inventory. In fact we’ve already looked at two in particular, the Dangerous Liasons dress, and colorful Eos Goddess Maxi dress.

Yesterday IGIGI unveiled Yuliya Raquel’s latest creation, the Diana Goddess dress, a truly gorgeous piece. Now I have to admit I am not a big fan of maxi dresses. I love how they look on some women, but I don’t like them on myself in particular. I think they make me look bigger, and I don’t think I am tall enough to pull off a dress like that. But that’s just me, and it doesn’t take away the fact that this dress is lovely. It features a halter neckline, and the print of the fabric is a truly original one.

What do you thin of this dress ladies? Are you a fan of maxi dresses, or not?

Violet Print Plus Size Wrap Dress Review

A while back the lovely people at SWAK Designs sent over some goodies to me, and over the coming days and week I will be reviewing these, to show you what you can expect out of SWAK Designs clothing. Today we’re taking a look at Violet Print Plus Size Wrap Dress, a dress added to their collection towards the end of last year. You can have a look at me wearing the dress by watching the video below. A comprehensive overview, and some more pics also follow after the video!

I love a lot of things about this dress, the style, the colors and the shimmery fabric, which give it a very glam look. you can dress this item down by matching it up with some boots and a cardigan, but I would rather prefer dressing it up with some funky accessories and either black or pink high heel pumps The faux wrap style is cute, although it might cause a bit of over exposure for ladies with a bigger bust.

The dress comes with a detachable belt. I am not much of a belt person, so I would opt not to wear it, especially because the fabric is really silky and the belt tends to slide up and down no matter which way to place it. Having said that I’m sure it would be easy to fasten the belt so that it won’t move to much. The fabric of the dress is very lightweight, so this piece will take you definitely into the warmer months. All in all I love this dress! It’s currently available at $54 and in sizes 1X to 6X.

Here are some more pictures of it, as well as some suggestions…

How to Wear a Flared Dress

Plus Size Sexy Elegant Halter Style DressIt’s one of the hottest looks for the spring. It’s time to give your straight dresses and skirts a breather and make room for the ultra-feminine flare dress. This fashionable little number is being made popular by such celebrities as Renee Zellweger and Eva Mendes who look chic and “oh so girly” sporting these trendy dresses. If you’ve accustomed to wearing straight skirts and dresses, you may feel a little awkward giving this style a try. The good news is once you slip one on, you’ll wonder how you lived without it.

The flare dress dates back to the 1950’s when this style dominated the fashion world for several years. When you look back at photos from that era and marvel at the tiny waist lines on the women of that day, you’ll understand the magic of the flare dress. This dress style can visually shave a few inches off the appearance of your waist line. It’s particularly flattering for women with a natural hour glass shape. If your shape is not quite voluptuous enough, this dress can give you the curves you’ve always wanted. If you’re carrying around a few extra pounds in the hip area, a flare dress will skillfully hide the truth underneath feminine billows of material.

How do you choose a flare dress that’s right for you?
Full figured women should choose a flare dress in a dark color with a longer, flared skirt. Avoid one that has ruffles or too much detailing. Steer clear of bright colors and prints. Simple will be more flattering to you.

If you have a toned upper body and a firm bust line, try one of the off the shoulder or strapless flare dresses that will be so popular this spring. This is a wonderful look for a daytime wedding or a nighttime summer party. If you’re petite and slender, choose a flare dress with a little less flounce at the bottom to avoid overwhelming your small frame. This look can be dazzling on your figure type.

What’s the best way to accessorize a flare dress?
This look is so feminine and dramatic that it looks best with simple accessories that won’t detract from the drama of the dress. If you’re wearing a strapless flare dress, resist the urge to add a heavy necklace and let your neckline go bare instead. Scoop your hair up into a loose, feminine up-do and add some eye catching dangle earrings for the perfect party look. Don’t forget about selecting the right shoes. Flare dresses are perfectly suited for feminine stilettos and high heels. A backless mule type heel is also a pretty look.

Because all trends eventually run their course, resist the urge to buy a closet full of flare dresses. Buy one or two basic ones to take you through the spring season and enjoy wearing this very pretty look while it lasts.
