Style tip? You can visually create curves where you don’t have any with a belt–wide or thin. And if you are already blessed with curves, you can accentuate them with a belt.

Style tip? Bows have been in for the last several seasons, but this season’s bow is decidedly oversized for drama. One way to work it is to give a feminine touch to an otherwise masculine outfit.

Style tip? Prints took a decidedly floral turn this season, an evolution from the graphic, geometric prints of the past few seasons. Choose a print in proportion to your body–e.g. if you’re petite, opt for a smaller print.
