How to find your perfect shorts -

“The mood -  these causal styles are strictly a weekend look, so relax - you can’t go wrong with silky boxers, flat front Bermudas or cool racer stripe trunks.

The fit - size up: shorts like these should graze not grab your shape. Try darker solids for a slimming effect or bright prints to highlight curves.

The mix - add structure to a flowy pair with a balzer, a button front shirt, and gladiators. Or match a tiny-print T with bottoms in a louder pattern.”

Find Your Perfect Midi Dress

1.The Cut - ideally, the hem should hit where your leg starts to slim, slightly below the widest part of the calf. Taller can carry off any look [straight silhouettes are particularly flattering]. If you’re petite, a pleated skirt will add some shape. Got curve? Choose a skirt with volume [think A-line] for a wasp like waist.

2. The Fit  - Longer dresses need to be fitted to keep them from looking dowdy.

3. The Shoes - since midis cut across your calves, they can make legs appear shorter.  Heels - ladylike pumps or over the knee boots - are a must.

Hello, Cheekbones!

1. Hit first base - and second. Along T-zone area and up to the tops of your cheekbones, apply a foundation that’s the same color as your skin. Next, add a second foundation, just one shade deeper, to the hollows of your cheeks. Blend both shades for a seamless finish.

2. Contour the hollow - dust a shimmery bronzing powder just beneath the cheekbones for more dimension.

3. Let it pop - the final move: make the apples of your cheeks stand out with a hint of peachy blush.

Find Your Perfect White Jacket

1. The Vibe - think of it as a white shirt but with more presence. It works in any season and can feel more modern than go-to black. For a richer, less summery take, consider a textured fabric.

2. The Fit - a derriere length blazer with lapels suits curvier shapes. If you’re busty, try wearing the jacket open. Petite figures do well in sleeker styles that are cropped and collarless.

3. The Outfit - combine with other pales, such as cream and bone, for an elegant look. Or pair with a  pattern or color, like an animal-print blouse or a cobalt skirt.
