Cocktail dresses are a woman’s best friend, and let me tell you why: they’re versatile, and they’ll get you through any special occasion looking excellent. That’s right, if you’re ever in doubt as to what to wear, nine times out of ten, a cocktail dress will do the job! You can wear them to practically any event. Parties, Dance Clubs, Weddings, Graduations, Work Events… The list goes on and on~
The other reason why cocktail dresses are a woman’s best friend is because they are generally very affordable. There’s no need to spend hundreds of dollars on a overly fancy dress that you will only wear one time, when you can spend $100 to $200 on a versatile dress that you will wear over and over again over the years.
Choosing the right cocktail dress really isn’t hard to do, but there are a few things to keep in minds. Number one, make it sexy! That’s right, cocktail dresses are really all about looking sexy and showing off, so a deep cut v neckline and a tightly fitted bust and bodice are always in style, no matter the season. Showing off shoulders and back is always a seductive touch that will always be trendy.
Do keep in mind, though, that if you want a dress you can wear to a variety of different special occasions, buy a dress that isn’t overly skimpy. A slightly modest cocktail dress, in a subtle color, can always serve as a backup that works a thousand times better than Tylenol at relieving headaches associated with not being able to pick out something to wear! If you’re wondering how to embellish a dress like this, it’s easy: wear a pair of your favorite high heels, a smallish hand bag, and just a touch of jewelry here and there to add some spark and you’re ready for any event.
When it comes to colors, we have plenty to choose from: Coral, Baby Pink, Aqua Blue, Fuchsia, Cobalt, Gray, Apple Green, Silver, Gold, Teal, Navy, Royal Blue, Ivory, Cream, Kiwi, Lilac, Sage, Purple, Muave, Violet, Yellow, and of course Black, which is never going out of style. We also offer a huge number of prints with floral and animal motifs which continue to be some of the season’s most popular trends.
Whenever you’re buying a dress, any kind of dress, you always have to work with what you’re mother gave you. Always take you’re body type into account, because it’s a small thing that can make a big difference. Don’t worry, finding the right dress is not rocket science! Plus size women, remember dark colors will make you look thinner, a full length skirt will cover you up a little, while a deep plunging neckline will show off your assets well, and divert attention to where you want it. Thin girls, short skirts and long slits will make for a flirty look, while halter tops and tight, drawn in waists will help you shine.
