In an age where people are overwhelmed with social media such as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, there is no escaping the importance of taking the perfect snap. Whether you admit it or not, you will never love the idea of your friend posting an ugly picture of you online. That is exactly what happens most of the time. You spend a good amount of time trying to perfect your pose, and just when you think your picture will look as fabulous as Lady Di, you end up looking like a monster from the Hell Raiser series.

There really isn’t a lot you can do to change your face (unless you are into plastic surgery and all that). However, the pictures of your face can turn out to be much better than they do. All you have to do is stick to some basic tips on how to look spectacular in photos. These are elementary tricks and photo hacks that will make you look charming even when you are having a bad hair day. Before you know it, you’ll become the most photogenic person in your bunch, and those Facebook likes and Instagram followers will be rising faster than you could ever keep count.

The days on envying people on social media are gone. It’s time to become a beautiful, remarkable and outrageously photogenic entity on your social media. That’s why we prepared for you a list of 20 easy ways to look good in photos. Enjoy and promise to learn these simple tricks.

  1. No more blinking.
Emma Watson

Emma Watson

If you are the kind of person who tends to blink a lot during taking pictures, and ends up with half-closed eyes in the photos, then you should try blinking just before the picture is taken. Blink before the camera clicks, so that at the time when the snap is complete, your eyes will remain wide open.

  1. Avoid the double chin.
Rihanna

Rihanna

Pictures of you with double chins can really make you hate yourself. The simplest way to avoid that is by simply stretching out your neck and pushing your face forward to a certain extent. (don’t force it out like a tortoise coming out of a shell). Doing this may cause some awkwardness, but it’ll be worth the effort once the picture has been taken.

  1. Nail the makeup.
Kristen Stewart

Kristen Stewart

If you opt to put makeup on, then it has to be a seamless match. The slightest of errors in makeup are very easily highlighted in pictures. When the foundation is too heavy on your skin, the flash from the camera makes it very obvious that you have overdone your makeup. The makeup on your face has to be matched to the one on your skin in order for your photo to turn out good.

  1. Find a pattern.
Adele

Adele

Even if your pictures turn out bad generally, you will still have some photos that are good enough to blow your crush’s mind away. Take a look at those photos and try to figure out a pattern. The pattern could be in your facial expression, in the way your positioned, or the pose you are trying to pull off. Once you taken note of the pattern, try to replicate that in your next picture.

  1. Use the red carpet trick.
Angelina Jolie

Angelina Jolie

This is something that a lot of celebrities probably use to look stunning in their pictures. All you have to do is place your tongue at the back of your teeth and then smile. This prevents you from grinning too wide and looking freaky like the Joker from Batman.

  1. Pay attention to your eyebrows.
 Cara Delevigne

Cara Delevigne

Believe it or not, but the eyebrows can make or break your picture. Depending on how you fill them in, they can make you look stressed out or energetic. The last thing you want is a picture of you where you look like an exhausted 40 year old person who is going through a mid-life crisis.

  1. Get that shine on your hair.
Blake Lively

Blake Lively

Shiny hair makes your photos far more appealing. You could use hairsprays to bring out the glow in your flocks. The more you flaunt your hair, the more eye-catching your picture will turn out to be.

  1. Eliminate red eyes.
Megan Fox

Megan Fox

Look at a light source before taking a picture. This will constrict your pupils and lower the chances of a red eye when taking the picture.

  1. Be a little shy.
Selena Gomez

Selena Gomez

If you are taking a picture with your significant other, you shouldn’t put on a mundane and blunt expression. A cute little blush reflects your shyness, which many people find very cute online. Think of it in this way, one quick blush equates to one hundred quick Facebook likes.

  1. Keep your eyes sparkly.
Ashwaria Rai

Ashwaria Rai

The sparkle in your eyes is very important to being photogenic. To get your eyes shining, you could use drops of Visine that will make your eyes look brighter and make you look wide awake. Just make sure not to pour too much on the eyes, or else you’ll end up looking like a cry baby.

  1. Get your angles correct.
Monica Bellucci

Monica Bellucci

This should be an easy task for those who were good in geometry. Never look at the camera straight up. That looks awkward and robotic. Instead, turn your head at a certain angle. Expose the better half of your face. That makes the picture far more appealing.

  1. Hands on hips.
 Jennifer Lawrence

Jennifer Lawrence

This next posture is specifically for the girls (and the boys who are goofy enough to imitate them). Place the hands on the hips, angle your body to the side, and turn your face towards the camera like a celebrity in the limelight. As a matter of fact, this clichéd pose is called the “Red Carpet Pose”.

  1. Choose the right background.
Nicole Kidman

Nicole Kidman

Standing in front of a black or dark coloured background is never a wise idea. Instead, stand in front of something white. It accentuates the colour of your clothes and makes you look much sharper and brighter.

  1. Photo from above.
Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift

Have you ever noticed how photos taken from below your eye level do not look as attractive as the ones taken from above your eye level. Regardless of your taking a selfie or having someone else take your picture (which has become such a rarity nowadays) make sure that the picture is taken from a certain height above your head. This will give the picture a certain dynamic factor.

  1. The more, the better.
Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner

Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner

The more pictures you take, the better you will get at it. Photography is a simple game of averages. Just because you are not innately photogenic does not mean that you will never be one. Photo bomb as many pictures as you can and barge into as many group photos as you can. The more acquainted people will be with your face, the better it will appear to them. Besides, it helps you get rid of the awkwardness of taking pictures.

  1. Twilight is perfect light. 19

This has nothing to do with Edward or Bella. Twilight hours are actually the best time to take a photograph. The warm glow of the sun adds a sense of tranquillity to your picture that cannot be attained at any other time of the day. So whenever you witness a beautiful sunrise or sunset, make sure to start clicking away on your camera.

  1. To pout or not to pout. 

    Nicki Minaj

    Nicki Minaj

Pouting is a hit or miss kind of deal when it comes to photos. Some people look absolutely fabulous when pouting, while others look hilarious. You need to experiment with your photos and find out which category you belong to. One pout at times can make you an overnight sensation on social media.

  1. Dress boldly 

    Arlenis Sosa

    Arlenis Sosa

A picture of you in an oversized t-shirt isn’t going to catch too much of attention unless you are Kim Kardashian. Therefore, put on bold and visually striking clothes before clicking that shutter. With that being said, polka dotted clothing is not recommended.

  1. Filtering is ok.
Maggie Q

Maggie Q

If you think adding filters to your images does not make a difference then you are dead wrong. Try out all the filters that are available in your photo app. You never know which one’s going to make your ordinary photo into a million dollar one.

  1. No saying “cheese”.
Katy Perry

Katy Perry

Saying cheese makes you exude a fake smile. When it comes to pictures, fake smiles aren’t the best option. Try to chat with the photographer before taking the photo and come up with a natural, spending and blissful smile.

There you have it, these are the 20 awesome tricks that will make you far more photogenic than you could have ever dreamed of becoming. Just keep these tips in mind before taking photos from now on, and you will soon become a star. Oh, and as a last word of advice, don’t forget to use a catchy caption for your photos.

If there is any kind of shoes that will remain forever green in the realm of footwear, then it is your classic riding boots. Wearing this particular footwear, adds an extra layer of sophistication to your appearance, and definitely makes you stand out from the rest.

There are various types of riding boots that are available today. Most of them have retained their vintage look, while some have a modern twist in their form. Selecting the best riding boots for yourself and pulling off the picture perfect style of wearing them can turn out to be quite a difficult task indeed.

If you are having a hard time deciding on the style that will bring out the charming lady in you, then take a look at these 9 incredible magnificent styles of wearing riding boots.

  1. The equestrian.
Princess Charlotte Casighari

Princess Charlotte Casighari

Riding boots are nearly synonymous with equestrians. One validates the other. Keeping the two apart when it comes to fashion would be a cardinal sin. Even if you don’t own a horse and have never ridden one before, it’s still okay for you to pull off the equestrian look. This is perhaps the most elegant style of wearing riding boots than you can adhere to. The combination for this style includes riding boots, with a pair of light pants, a sharp white shirt and an imposing blazer to top it all off. If you are looking slightly outdated, then you could try out some modern accessories.

  1. The comfy country.
Kate Hudson

Kate Hudson

One of the main reasons why people wear riding boots is for warmth of comfort. During winter, autumn or the cooler days of spring, you can pair your riding boots with a comfortably and cosy attire. Your clothing should include woollen scarves and sweaters. The colour of the boots that you are wearing should be a tan, brown and earth colour.

  1. The professional.
Kate Middleton

Kate Middleton

There is nothing sexier than a corporate lady sporting a pair of exquisite boots. Keep the wear simple and chic for this one. A pencil skirt, a silk shirt and a blazer or trench coat will suffice to transform your into the killer badass lady that everyone fears and secretly admires.

  1. Skinny jeans.
Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift

Skinny jeans are perhaps the most popular choice of pants with riding boots. When you are pulling off this combination, make sure that the bright brown colour of your riding boots are sharply contrasted by the dark, navy blue hue of your skinny jeans. You may want to put on some shades for that added depth in awesomeness.

  1. Matching leggings.
Olivia Palermo

Olivia Palermo

Wearing tights or leggings with riding boots is not too different from wearing skinny jeans with one. The only difference that you have to pick on over here is the colour of the pants and the boots. Make sure that they are of the same colour. Black is highly recommended, but you could also be brave and put on an all white combination.

  1. Eccentricity.

6

This is indeed a strange combination, and one that you are advised not to use unless you are feeling pretty confident about your sense of fashion. The long length maxi dress with the riding boots is sure to turn some heads and raise a few eyebrows. Once done correctly, you will definitely be a class apart from the rest.

  1. Mini and leggings.

7

This is a style that is appropriate in the cold weather. A bright red mini skirt, with dark black leggings and classic brown riding boots does make for an eye catching combination. What’s so great about this style is that it’s semi-casual and semi-formal.

  1. Outstanding.

8

Most of the riding boots appear as big blocks of leather footwear. However, some have intricate and crafty details that enhance their beauty. These details usually include straps, buckles or embossed extras. If you are an artsy person, then boots such as these are a must have for you.

  1. The cowboy look.
Reese Witherspoon

Reese Witherspoon

The best one had to be saved for the last. If you are into wearing riding boots, then you must consider putting on a cowboy outfit. Double denims, with a pale white shirt, red handkerchief and that eye-candy leather cowboy hat will serve as the perfect supplements to your cowboy riding boots. Upgrade your look by wearing a denim dress instead, like Reese Witherspoon.

So the next time you decide to spend on footwear, give the riding boots an extra minute of attention. At the end of the day, you have to admit that these shoes look far classier than a pair of pompous high heels.

Pink camos is the new rage. Give yourself a double decker surprise by– 1. Buying a skin tight pink camos 2. Sporting one with a loose neck white tee and black high heel ballerinas. *well done girl*

  1. All camo.
Mary J Blige

Mary J Blige

If you are bored of getting into whites and blacks, all you need to do to change your look and style is go all camo and match the shades of your top to your bottoms. Mary J Binge’s camo pants turned into camo capris for a hot day and she looks extra busy in her all camo outfit.

These tips will help you rock these trendy pants. Although remember: with a ten on ten outfit, a lot of things can still go wrong – incorrect make up and an absence of your sunshine smile. So fix that up and you are all set to rock.

Ballroom style maxis are just impeccable.

  1. Asymmetrical.

Halle Berry

Halle Berry

Some might think that maxi skirts are serious and grown-up, but that’s not true. Play and experiment and instead of a serious statement, your maxi skirt will express joyfulness and good mood. Choose an asymmetrical skirt if you think that you are too young to wear a full-length clothing, and the distinction between short and long will emphasize your youthfulness and joie de vivre. And will show off your legs. Halle Berry definitely knows her strengths with this asymmetrically wrapped maxi.

  1. With a jacket.

Kate Moss

Kate Moss

Business-like jacket or its variations worn with a plain maxi skirt raise the whole look onto a new level. It instantly becomes more elegant and chic.

In fact, a contrasting jacket can bring out the best of everything.

  1. Casual.

Jennifer Lopez

Jennifer Lopez

Maxi skirts are not necessarily made to be worn for fancy events and wedding ceremonies, it can perform a role of any other bottom piece. The key is to choose a simpler fabrics and patterns for the skirt, such as monochromatic linen or cotton.

A skinny black maxi skirt can be an interesting substitute to black work pants or pencil skirt. Wear it with a white button-up and stilettos or platforms and you will make a new serious statement in the world of business and creativity. Add a statement purse for extra chic results. Victoria Beckham looks stunningly professional and glamorous in her business lady outfit.

  1. Mix and match.

Heidi Klum

Heidi Klum

Mix and match your top and your bottom for some interesting visual effects. There are two options here: first, you choose same pattern for your top and your bottom, just like Heidi Klum did in the photo above. In such a way, your maxi skirt paired with a top of the same style and pattern, will transform into an interesting maxi dress. Second option is for more fashionable girls who know the art of matching, and it consists in choosing different prints and patterns for your top and your bottom. Just make sure they match stylistically, and the outcome will be truly fabulous.

  1. Slim cut.

Olivia Palermo

Olivia Palermo

A correctly chosen maxi skirt can give your whole look a more refined touch. A slim cut for a maxi skirt elongates your whole body and makes it visually thinner. If you are not sure about full tiered skirts, then opt for column-like maxi skirts. However, if you are already very skinny, it is better to avoid this design. Olivia Palermo’s body is perfect in all senses and she looks impeccable in her extra long slimline maxi skirt paired with a short jacket.

  1. Bohemian style.

Paris Hilton

Paris Hilton

If you are a wild and free spirit (at least a few times a year when you let yourself go), then picking a Boho style maxi skirt for your next adventure would be the right choice. Colorful full-length skirt will look great on you when you are dancing outdoors or picnicking on the grass, or just want to emphasize your personality. Add some rustic or hippie accessories, and do not forget about a flower wreath.

  1. Pleated.

 Blake Lively

Blake Lively

Pleated maxi looks stylish and feminine and is a timeless fashionistas’ favorite. Pair it with a basic tee or a top, as too much décor and ruffles might distract from the centerpiece of your image. Still not sure what to do with a pleated maxi skirt? Just follow Blake Lively style, and you will be a winner with the simplicity of the colors and the glamour of the design.

  1. With a bulky sweater.

Kate Hudson

Kate Hudson

In order to pull off this combo, it is not necessarily required to be pregnant, like Kate Hudson is in the photo above. Although, wearing a bulky sweater with a maxi skirt can definitely disguise your belly, if that’s what your ultimate goal it, of course. Anyway, wearing a bulky sweater with a maxi skirt is not only a perfect combination of casualness and elegance, but also a significant statement that you are an independent and distinct woman.

  1. With a long blazer.

Emma Watson

Emma Watson

This is why we love maxi skirts so much- they can look well with literally everything, including a long elegant blazer. Be warned, however, that not everyone can pull off this look. Every item of this outfit should fit impeccably so it does not look like you borrowed your elder sister’s outfit. Emma Watson looks elegant and chic in this outfit, without any doubt.

  1. With a leather jacket.

Miranda Kerr

Miranda Kerr

Go for a tough girl look with a maxi skirt paired with leather jacket, just as Miranda Kerr did. Big sunglasses, leather booties and an oversized handbag maximize the stylistic effect of the outfit and bring out the best of everything. The result is feminine and soft and at the same time tough and ready to fight.

  1. Retro style.

Selena Gomez

Selena Gomez

Go for a retro vibe with a not extremely long maxi skirt and a stretched t-shirt. The look is relaxed and chic at the same time, and looks like Selena Gomez did not have to put extra effort into her looks, but was born that chic and stylish.

  1. Monochromatic.

Kim Kardashian

Kim Kardashian

Wearing a top and a bottom in the same color is an excellent way to distinguish yourself from the crowd of maxis lovers. Kim Kardashian monochromatic outfit does not need anything else, as it is self-sufficient the way it is. It does not even need any accessories or jewelry, all thanks to the unique cut of the top and the bottom and its deep black color. A monochromatic outfit like that will be great for any extravagant event, and you won’t need to compromise simplicity with looking stylish.

  1. With a long tunic.

17

A long tunic or a thin sweater get a new meaning when paired with a fashionable maxi skirt. The outfit is casual but trendy and stylish and is great for a colder weather. The combination of a lush maxi and a minimalistic tunic elongates the whole figure and gives it an interesting slim and slender appearance. Definitely worth trying as nothing can really go wrong with this resourceful look.

  1. Midi length.

Garcelle Beauvais

Garcelle Beauvais

Wearing maxi does not necessarily mean that your skirt should touch the floor creating all sorts of inconveniences for you. Sometimes it is wise to go for something a few inches shorter, especially if you have beautiful ankles you would not wish to hide. Gorgeous Garcelle Beauvais knows a few things about style and beauty and her choice of maxi-midi skirt proves it. Bright, daring, fabulous- if you are still not sure about whether maxis are for you- this look will definitely change your mind.

  1. With sports shoes.

Kate Bosworth

Kate Bosworth

Go for a sporty vibe with a casually light transparent maxi skirt and a pair of heavy sport shoes. The contrast between light and heavy is unique and proves a point that one can stay feminine and sporty at the same time, and all one needs is just to make the right choices. A great outfit for a casual stroll when you do not want to choose between comfort and girlishness.

  1. Slit skirts forever.

Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift

The image of Taylor Swift in a side slit maxi skirt says it all. Slits are beautiful, elegant, sexy, sensual… It can be continued endlessly. However, remember that your legs should look good in order to achieve the fabulous effect with a simple slit skirt. Exercise and take care of your body and then you will be the queen at every party.

All these tips will maximize your styling potential and will give a new life and look to your favorite maxi skirt.

If you have wide torso, large distinct breasts and a full midsection, it means you have an apple body type. To be honest, it is not an easy task to dress an apple-shaped woman, because most apples tend to underestimate the significance of their assets and instead of emphasizing those, draw attention to their tummy by covering it with ruffles and decorations. Your middle part often troubles you and is most likely to get weight so your biggest challenge is to avoid weight fluctuations. However, let’s focus on your assets. Apple-shaped women will most likely have slender arms and legs, and narrow hips.4 Apple is a sweet fruit so apple-shaped women should be proud of their bodies, but in order to emphasize your strengths and hide your problem areas, you need to dress right. These steps below will show you how to dress in a flattering way.

  1. Underwear.

    Courtney Maxwell

    Courtney Maxwell

Your biggest challenge is accommodating your tummy and balancing it with the rest of your figure. The most important thing to consider when choosing your underwear is getting a good bra. You need clear distinction between your bust and your belly and it can be easily achieved with the help of a good bra. Choose the bra that fits and supports you well, as one of the most common mistakes apples make is getting a bra a size smaller than it should be in an attempt to minimize the volume. Do not repeat that mistake and choose the bra that fits! Stay away from strapless bras and triangle bras that have no support, push-ups are also not the best choice for you as normally your breasts will not need more emphasis. Choose half cup bra or full cup bras that will support you well and create the necessary shape and definition.1 As for the bottom part of your undergarments, choose something with a belly-lessening effect. As apples tend to have narrower hips and bigger tummy, it is important to balance the proportions and create a nice curve, which is possible to do with the basis of your outfit- your underwear. High-waisted panties or French knickers will create a shape you are looking for and will make you look and feel fabulous.1.1

  1. Tops and shirts.

    Catherine Zeta Jones

    Catherine Zeta Jones

Your bust is your great asset so choose tops with wide neckline that draw attention away from your midsection. Moreover, look for tops that will define your body better. Creating silhouette- that is the main task of all apples. High waist tops, blouses with ruffles, V-neck tops will look great on apple-shaped women.

Lucy Hale

If your prefer simplicity, add a big scarf to create more shape and balance out your whole body, just like Lucy Hale did. At the same time, avoid square shapeless shirts that add more bulk to your whole body. Stay away from high-neck shirts as well, since your cleavage is an asset and you don’t want to hide it. A simple button-down will also look good on you when it is shapely and designed for women. Remember not to choose baggy clothes- they do not flatter anyone, more so apples. Take pride in your body; do not hide it beneath the shapeless sack!

  1. Jackets and coats.

    Catherine Zeta Jones

It has been mentioned earlier and should be stressed out again and again that the key to show off all the assets for the apple-shaped women is to create shape, balance and structure. That is why, coats and business-like jackets are so perfect for the sweet apples. Coats and jackets are shapely and structured by definition (well, most of them, always look for classic models) and will create a nice frame for the rest of your figure. When looking for a coat, choose something that shows off your nicely shaped legs, like, for example, something like Catherine Zeta Jones’s brick-color coat. It is voluminous in the bust area, which creates contrast and shape. At the same time, a simple silhouette will elongate your body and hide your full midsection as well. Therefore, the choice is all yours.

Jennifer Hudson

As for the jackets, Jennifer Hudson’s business jacket is what all apples should own. Strict, structured, trendy- it creates a nice hourglass frame and we would never have thought she in fact belong to the apple group.

  1. Dresses.

Apples are very lucky, as there is a whole variety of dresses that will flatter their body. Once finding out what is your perfect dress, there is no need to change it and look for something else. An A-line shape is a good choice for an apple, but make sure the waistline is not too tight and that the dress creates some movement. Jennifer Hudson’s simple black dress is great as it emphasizes her long shapely legs, her neckline, while elongating the torso with its simple shape that falls down freely.

Catherine Zeta Jones

Catherine Zeta Jones

A simple sheath dress like the one Catherine Zeta Jones is wearing in the photo above, will also look great on the apples, when you add a belt to creates a balanced shape. If you are not so sure, whether you can pull off a waist belt, shift your waist higher with an empire waist dress or a halter dress.

Liz Hurley

Liz Hurley

Liz Hurley’s halter dress is so beautiful that we never notice her full midriff. When choosing a dress, avoid wrapped dresses, as their main purpose is to emphasize the tummy, which we are not looking for in a dress.

  1. Skirts. 

    Octavia Spencer

    Octavia Spencer

Straight and A-line skirts were made for apple-shaped bodies. At the same time avoid by all means pleated skirts, because they your stomach look wider, and in fact, only skinny girls with very narrow waist and hips can look great in pleated skirts. Structured pencil skirts actually work the best, but try to keep them at knee length. If you really like pleats, choose skirts with pleats starting below your hips to avoid extra bulk in your midsection.

Hillary Duff

Hillary Duff

Hillary Duff skirt has simple design but its bright color looks distinct and draws attention to her bottom part. Octavia Spencer simple pencil skirt is everything a woman should look for, as its simple non-pretentious cut gives the body the structure and shape one needs. When paired with a simple button-up, the result is quite distinct and outstanding.

  1. Pants. 

    Drew Barrymore

    Drew Barrymore

When choosing the pants, the same “no bulk” rule applies. That is why, look for a side fastening, and keep in mind that flat fronted trouser is your best choice. It will help you avoid adding any extra bulk to your stomach. Simple, monochromatic pants are the best, choose relaxed fit and avoid super-wide legs, which will definitely make you wider. Still, remember, that for an apple-shaped body pants is not the best option as they hide your best assets, that is, your slim legs. As your legs are usually quite thin, do not buy skinny pants or leggings, which will make them look even thinner compared to the rest of your body.

  1. Jeans and shorts. 

    Tyra Banks

    Tyra Banks

Instead of jeans look for a more tailored option in denim trousers. Again, go for wide legged trousers to balance your body. Boot cut or trouser cut is your best option, and do not be afraid of pronounced back pockets- they will add shape to your hips. Tyra Banks boot cut jeans look very flattering and accentuate her endless legs and her beautiful hips. Boyfriend cut jeans will also look good on you as they add volume on your hips and shift focus from your middle part to your bottom. As for the shorts- wear them with pride and confidence, since they can show off your beautiful legs and lessen your waist. Choose high-waisted shorts, and keep in mind that low rise shorts might create a “muffin top”, which is deeply unflattering.

  1. Swimwear. 

    Tyra Banks

    Tyra Banks

No need to be shy and avoid going to the beach. Now, you can transform your look with the help of a correct swimsuit. Bikini or one-piece- the choice is yours. Look for swimsuits that will enhance your bust and deemphasize your midsection and hips. Ruffles, padding or embellishments at the bust will do the job. Tyra Banks’s bright red one piece looks quite impressive thanks to the bright color and ruffles at her shoulders, that draw all the attention.

Liz Hurley

Liz Hurley

Other options would be straps that strapless suits or straps that are at mid shoulder. A good addition to your bikini would be an a-line skirt that skim your body without adding volume or a pair of shorts, like the ones Ashley Benson is wearing. It creates shape without adding bulk.

Ashley Benson

Remember: if you have an apple shaped body, balance is the key. Balance your body proportions with the correctly chosen outfits and you will look and feel confident and fabulous!

Showing your lingerie and wearing ultra-see-through items used to be a fashion crime only a decade ago, but thanks to fashion icons and celebrities sheer top is currently quite hot, and when worn in a proper manner, can be chic and graceful. Look at these 10 stylish ways to wear a sheer top and step out of the box with new trendy piece.

  1. Layered.

Kim Kardashian

Kim Kardashian

It takes some courage to wear a sheer top as it is, that is why, layering it with something else would be a good way to start your journey in the world of sheerness and transparency in a nice decent mode. Layering a sheer top with a cardigan, a blazer, or a denim jacket will add some structure to the ethereal clothing item and will make the whole look more sophisticated and profound. Kim Kardashian looks undeniably elegant in this black outfit with a long coat over a sheer top.

  1. Button up.

Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift

A classical button-up will get a new meaning when made out of transparent fabrics. The whole dynamics and the connotation of a traditionally conservative clothing shifts to a completely new dimension and turns into a playful frisky piece. Go for a bow button up in a mild color, like Taylor Swift did, and you will be able to achieve a very feminine romantic look.

  1. Patchy.

Miranda Kerr

Miranda Kerr

Too shy to wear a sheer top? There is a perfect solution for you- choose something that is not transparent all over, and the thick fabrics covers your strategic points. In such a way your look will be complete and balanced without appearing vulgar and bold. Miranda Kerr’s blouse will not be too bold even for a dinner with your bf’s parents. Sheer sleeves prove that you are a romantic spirit, and solid bodice shows your seriousness and modesty.

  1. Printed.

Olivia Palermo

Olivia Palermo

Choosing a printed sheer shirt is a win-win. It is both edgy and distinct and wearing it means you are making a serious statement about your excellent fashion taste and nonconformity. Bold printed tops are for brave girls who know what they want and how to get it. Olivia Palermo’s printed transparent top stands out and is worth considering when looking for a sheer top.

  1. Loose.

Jennifer Lopez

Jennifer Lopez

The rule with the sheer tops is that they are best worn loose. Tight clothing is revealing and provocative, which will make the whole outfit redundant when talking about sheerness. Sheer tops are sexy and revealing by default, but wearing them in a relaxed manner will neutralize the dangers of being misunderstood. Jennifer Lopez look is balanced and at the same time sexy thanks to the comfortable loose sheer shirt.

  1. Play with textures.

Selena Gomez

Selena Gomez

This look is not for the modest ones. You have to be brave and beautifully eager to make a statement if you want to look at ease combining sheer and solid. Selena Gomez’s fabulous outfit is suitable for a party, and definitely not for the street. By matching two items in different texture, she emphasizes her sheer top, remaining elegant and chic at the same time.

  1. Matching underwear.

 Kate Moss

Kate Moss

Now let’s talk what to wear under a sheer top. For black or brightly colored tops, it is safe to wear a nice black bra. Of course, remember to make sure that the bra is of good quality and looks pretty. Beautiful black bra matched with a sheer top is one of the most popular ways to wear this tricky item and it always looks good and stylish. Kate Moss is a perfect example of the look.

  1. Contrasting underwear.

Jessica Alba

Jessica Alba

When your sheer top is white or skin color, it is better to emphasize the color by adding a contrasting bra under it. If the top is neutral color, just like in this Jessica Alba photo, a neutral color bra will create a nude illusion and nobody really wants that. Black bra is a good choice, but putting on something brighter and upbeat will make a more positive statement.

  1. Over a crop top.

9.1

Wearing a sheer shirt over a crop top is a great way to show off your favorite items without looking too daring. Both of crop top and sheer top are not designed to be worn just by themselves, but combining them makes them a perfect match.

  1. Over a dress.

Emma Stone

Emma Stone

This look is absolutely amazing and gives an interesting twist to both a dress (it can be any dress, but strapless works the best) and a sheer shirt. Emma Stone’s look is clear, distinct and inspirational. And it is easy to replicate. All you need is your old dress and a sheer top. The result will be pleasantly surprising, and it will give new life to your old mundane objects.

Choose a faux-fur vest to create a variety of looks from everyday to ready-to-party and these 10 trends will help you with it.

 

  1. Layered.

Olivia Palermo

Olivia Palermo

Fur vest is a great layering item by itself, so no wonder many celebrities like layering it with cardigans, jackets, and other warm wintery pieces. Wear your fur vest over a warm sweater and add a big scarf for an ultimate layered outfit, and you will always be warm, cozy, and stylish. Take a look at Olivia Palermo’s outfit if you need more inspiration.

  1. Street casual.

Jessica Hart

Jessica Hart puts on her fur vest for a short stroll with her dog, and it instantly adds necessary glamour and chic to the way she looks.

  1. Glamorous.

Cara Delevigne

Cara Delevigne

Fur is an accessory always being associated with glamour, chic and wealth. Nowadays, there is no need anymore to show off your status by wearing heavy bulky fur coats, and a thin fur vest will do the trick and establish your position in the high society. Cara Delevigne’s white fur vest is a wonderful contrasting item with her general grungy leathery look and it adds a just right amount of style and chic.

  1. With a short dress.

Jamie Chung

Jamie Chung

Sometimes a plain short dress might create an underdressed look. In order to avoid that, it is recommended to pair it with something that would make up a finished look. It might be a cardigan or a denim jacket for a street casual look, or a fur vest for a more luxurious look. In case of Jamie Chung’s image, her cream caramel fur vest completes the look perfectly well, and makes it more stylish and elegant.

  1. With leggings.

Alessandra Ambrosio

Alessandra Ambrosio

Here we see the same concept as in the previous case- fur vest acts as a final addition to the otherwise incomplete and plain outfit. Leggings being super comfortable and versatile must-have item this season still require extensive accessories, and a fur vest takes up the function of being that extensive accessory, bringing the look onto a wholly new level of luxury, and changing an everyday object into a party outfit.

  1. All black.

Rachel Zoe

Rachel Zoe

You can either break the all-black ensemble by pairing it with a fur vest of a different color for a bright captivating look, or you can follow Rachel Zoe’s example and add a black fur vest for the outstanding statement look. All depends on your mood of the day and how you would like to be perceived- as a cheerful socialite, or a grungy trendsetter. In any case, the fur vest looks great with any black outfit.

  1. With a maxi dress.

Kendall Jenner

Kendall Jenner

Get the bohemian vibe by wearing your fur vest with a maxi dress. Add a scarf for a more stimulating visual effect, or go for a plain dress for a minimalistic touch. Kendall Jenner here manages to combine a minimalistic all-black dress with a contrasting simple fur vest and a pair of booties for a street more-than-just-casual style. The whole outfit is extremely self-sufficient and requires no additional details or accessories. That is the power of a fur vest!

  1. With boyfriend jeans.

8

Raise your old boyfriend jeans to a higher level and turn them into a successful up-to-date clothing item by simply pairing them with a outstanding fur vest and endless high heels. The whole look is amazing and attention grabbing and is perfect for a day in an office (in case you are a creative soul), a freelancing job, or a college. It makes you look independent, creative, and artistic.

  1. With a sweater dress.

9

Fur vest and a sweater dress were made for each other. These cuddly, cozy items will keep you warm and will make the otherwise basic sweater dress (or a long tee for the bold ones) look proper and complex. Soft textures make the whole look very feminine and appealing, and high boots add a touch of sensual overtone.

  1. With an elegant suit.

Rita Ora

Rita Ora

Extremely stylish and classy look. A fur vest over a classical pantsuit requires some boldness and sharp feeling of fashion and style, but the result is worth it. Choose not so fluffy vests for a calm look, and big and bold ones if you wish to make a statement. Rita Ora certainly succeeded in that.

These 10 tips will help you expand the use of a so popular this season fur vest.

Fashion is not all about glitz and extravagance; it has so many different sides not visible to the general public. From documentaries to movies inspired by real life, these 10 films will bring the magnificent world of fashion closer to you and will help you see who really those egocentric fashionistas are and what is behind the fashion icons’ lightness of being.

  1. The Devil Wears Prada (2006). .

1

A story about a young naïve journalist Andrea (Anne Hathaway) taking up a job of a second assistant to the editor of one of the city’s biggest fashion magazines. Her boss (Meryl Streep) is ruthless and cold-blooded, and the young woman does not really fit into the fashion world, but with the help of her colleagues, Andrea changes into a true fashionista, which changes her relationships with her close ones. Eventually she learns that life is all about making choices. A must-watch for all who dream of a career in fashion journalism.

  1. Coco Before Chanel (2009).

2

A few years after leaving the orphanage, Gabrielle Chanel, played by Audrey Tautou, starts working in a local bar. She works as a seamstress in-between her shifts and she also sings quite well. The song she used to sing nightly with her sister gives her a new nickname- a famous Coco. A liaison with Baron Balsan provides her an opportunity to get into French society and gives her a chance to develop her gift for designing increasingly popular hats. When she falls in love with an English businessman more opportunities open up, though life becomes ever more complicated. This a must-watch classic for all who love the world of fashion and worship Coco Chanel.

  1. Sex and the City (2008).

3

A classic movie about a city fashionista-columnist Carrie Bradshaw, excellently performed by fabulous Sarah Jessica Parker. Carrie’s vast collection of shoes is astounding, and her clothes choice is always impeccably stylish. The movie is a compilation of all the best things from the show: fashion, style, sex, love, life choices, and it still remains a modern fairy tale with a new age strong independent Cinderella. Carrie’s famous wedding dress was designed by Vivienne Westwood, and it’s worth watching the movie just for this fashion masterpiece.

  1. In Vogue: The Editor’s Eye, Vogue (2012).

4

). Even if you are not a fan of documentaries, this movie will keep you awake and absorbed until the very end. Vogue editor Anna Wintour is featured in this film, among Babs Simpson, Grace Coddington, Tonne Goodman, and others. “In Vogue” presents the back stories of famous photos features in the iconic magazine, from delicate couture to the infamous photos of a model in a leg brace, seen by Vogue as a fashion accessory rather than a connection to reality.

  1. Dior and I (2014).

5

Originally titled Dior et moi, the French movie takes the viewer inside the fascinating world of the Christian Dior fashion house. You get an opportunity to have a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of Raf Simons’ first haute couture collection as its new artistic director, which a story of a true dedication and passion. This documentary is also a vibrant homage to the tailors who serve Simons’ vision. A wonderful portrayal of hard work and enthusiasm is recommended for all fashion lovers and those thinking of a career in fashion design.

  1. Confessions of a Shopaholic (2009).

6
The plot focuses on a young fashion writer who loves beautiful clothes a bit too much. Well, so much she cannot exactly pay off most of them. Confessions of a Shopaholic is an adorable, comedic (and sometimes cringe-worthy) take on life among fabulous clothes for the main protagonist Rebecca Bloomwood (Isla Fisher). Unable to cope with her devastating obsession with shopping and the sudden collapse of her income source, Rebecca Bloomwood accidently gets a writing for a financial magazine job after a drunken letter-mailing mix-up. Paradoxically she had to write about the very consumer caution of which she herself knew nothing, but her innovative comparisons and unconventional fashion and shopping metaphors for economics got her critical acclaim, public success, and the admiration of her supportive boss Luke. In the end she still has to overcome her shopaholic condition and make further choices about her career. The movie is about happiness, honesty, and again, the right choices.

  1. Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961).

7

A discussion of fashion in the movies would always be incomplete without this iconic fashion movie, a true masterpiece that has no timeframes and is still trendy and classy today. The film’s combination of icons Audrey Hepburn, fashion designer Hubert Givenchy, and legendary costume designer Edith Head was a definite recipe for sartorial success. The combined genius of Givenchy and much favored in Hollywood Edith Head resulted not only in Hepburn’s elevation to iconic status, but also the ensembles she wore in the film: many of the costumes from Breakfast at Tiffany’s are as identifiable as the actress herself. The film continues to influence fashion and beauty today despite the fifty years since its release. Its influence on costume design and upon the concept of “classic style” was a huge incentive for the advertising world to recognize the importance of film.

  1. The September Issue (2009).

8

The documentary focuses on the September 2007 issue of Vogue magazine, which weighed nearly five pounds, and was the single largest issue of a magazine ever published. With unprecedented access, this film tells the story of legendary Vogue editor in chief Anna Wintour and her large team of editors creating the issue and ruling the world of fashion. Do not confuse thise film the the In Vogue: The Editor’s Eye. While the former chronicles the life and works of the people behind the scenes, The September Issue pictures the luxurious and at the same time intense business required in putting together the largest issue of the year. A perfect watch for everyone who thinks that fashion is all about luxury and glitter.

  1. Zoolander (2001).

9

Ben Stiller takes on the stereotypical life of the “not-too-bright” male model with this typical fashion favorite. Stiller’s Derek Zoolander is VH1 three time male model of the year, but when Hansel, his antagonist, winds the award, Derek’s world turns upside down. His friends vanish, his father is terribly disappointed with him, and he feels that he should stop his model career since he failed. However, when evil fashion guru Mugatu hires Zoolander, he thinks his life has turned back round again, that is until he finds out that Mugatu has actually brainwashed him to kill the Prime Minister of Malaysia. A fun and easy watch for everyone who loves fashion and the world of modeling.

  1. Bill Cunningham New York (2010).

10

This documentary film presents a profile of the noted and extraordinarily cheerful veteran New York City fashion photographer. Full of happiness and modest charm, Bill Cunningham New York offers a moving, poignant, mildly humorous portrait of Bill Cunningham. A must-watch for everyone who is into fashion photography.

And what are your favorite fashion movies?

  1. As a coat.

Kim Kardashian

  1. As a top.

Reese Witherspoon

Reese Witherspoon

Wear a short cardigan instead of your top with nothing underneath. It gives you a sexy and at the same time relaxed and modest look. Reese Whitherspoon looks comfortable and relaxed in this gray cardigan paired with black pants. The outfit looks decent enough to be worn in the office.

The cardigan can transform your whole image into a playful schoolgirl one, when paired with a pleated skirt, a tie, a pair of oxford shoes, and a simple shirt.

Emmy Rossum looks very schoolgirlish and blooming in her schoolgirl-like outfit.

  1. Tied around your waist.

Pairing a simple sweater dress with a classy trench coat will bring your whole image onto a new level of sophistication and French chic, and a pair of rubber boots will add some playful character to the whole outfit. This is a great way to spice up a plain dress without extra accessories and decorations, and to avoid looking too casual (which is the risk with sweater dresses). And do not forget to put on a smile!

One of the sweater dress weaknesses is that it might look shapeless and if you do not take care of your midriff, it might stand out a bit more than you’d wish. A brilliant way to fix that and to add more shape to your favorite dress is to simply belt it. Pippa Middleton masters the look and a thin leather belt matching her suede boots miraculously turns the previously shapeless item into a statement piece.

  1. With high boots.

  1. With leggings.

When a knitted dress is bit shorter than you would afford wearing it just as it is, pair it with leggings. Or do it no matter what the length of the sweater dress is. Mixing your sweater dress with leggings, jeggings, or your favorite skinny jeans will transform it into a warm tunic, thus creating a completely new look for you. Fearne Cotton pairs her ornamental dress with trendy leather leggings and looks just fabulous! If your sweater dress is plain, then a pair of colorful bottoms will make your outfit stand out.
