Oasis Dress, Kurt Geiger Nude Heels
My renewed desire to wear the hidden treasures in my wardrobe coninciding with the Valentine's day, which is the time you'll spot the most reds, is just a sheer coincidence. I got this dress from Oasis back in my university days in England and wore it twice, and it has been warming my closet ever since.
I absolutely fell in love when I first spotted this polka dotted red dress. It was the perfect whimsical piece to feed my desire for a feminine dress that was so missing in my wardrobe back then. And although it's length was far away from the perfect knee-length I stick to, to elongate my petite figure, I purchased it regardless.
Pearl strings, updo hair and a pair of nude heels was the perfect way to complete this look. This look is so deceptively flirty yet refreshingly elegant (I think pearl strings did the trick). Flirty, retro and elegant, all at once. I can't even recognise myself here.
Love this picture - just reminds me how striking, dominant, bold, attention-grabbing and passionate red is.

You have an amazing fashion sense who would you say inspires you when it comes to fashion? Btw what height are you? Any tips for fashion tips for short women with curves and ways to embrace it rather than look frumpy and fat?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the wonderful feedback. I am 5 feet 1 and curvy.
DeleteWomen with hourglass figure are blessed, and it is the most desirable shape on the planet. Don't let anyone make you think otherwise.
It is important to dress as per your body type, know what flatters you and carry yourself confidently. One of the most important thing is to wear well-fitted clothes. A top that is too big will only make you look bigger and sloppier so don't try to hide yourself, rather accentuate your strengths and camouflage the problem areas. So you ought to wear clothes that fit you well and flatter your body.
To look taller, wear a monochromatic look (wear clothes from the same colour palette).
