Dress for Your Body
Don’t show it all, if you’re going to show skin up top, cover your legs and vis-versa. Proportion is key; apply proportion to how much you are showing. If you balance out the amount of skin you show, you can show both your upper and lower body, but remember, you are a beautiful woman, there’s no need to give it all away in a glance. Value your body.
If you’ve got it, flaunt it…in a MODEST way.
Long legs – Show your legs in a great dress or skirt. Before you leave the house, sit down and assure that neither the dress nor skirt hikes up to your private territory. Great fitting jeans can also do the trick.
Toned arms – A shoulder-baring top is a must for gorgeous shoulders, as every woman has. If you have definition to your arms, most definitely wear a flattering cut top that exposes all of your hard work!
Great cleavage – A top that skims and shows the shadowing of your chest is always gorgeous. Avoid the push-up bra overload mistake that many women make. Again, no need to put your chest out there for all to see.
Tight torso - A fitted top in a stretchy fabric. Tight fitting tunics with a low-sling belt are also a great option!

Basic Style Tips
-
Steer away from linen whether it is tops or pants, although it is a nice, breezy fabric it shows any and all perspiration and is deathly prone to wrinkles.
-
Never ‘settle’ for clothing, if it doesn’t grab you when you first see it, don’t buy it. It’s most likely it will move into it’s new home in the back of your closet.
-
Don’t buy clothing just because it is inexpensive. All of that money spent on what you think is ‘inexpensive’ clothing ends up possibly costing more than your ‘expensive’ purchases.
-
Only buy an item if you know you will wear it within the next few months. If you are going on a diet, don’t buy clothes that don’t fit you in hopes that you’ll get into them later. You will just be throwing money down the drain. Plus, you don’t know what you’re body will look like once you do lose the weight, so why not wait until that point to "Invest."
