Ways to Style Deep V-Neck Dresses


Whether it’s a prom, a cocktail party or a formal event, nothing feels more satisfying than rocking in an outfit that brings the best in you if not make you the center of attraction. For such purposes, it goes without saying that having a sexy deep V-neck dress is always a plus. However, it’s not always an easy thing to pull off. It all depends on how you style it, assuming that you chose something that fits well with you, reveals your sexy shape, and you got the color right. 

While no course specifically teaches how to wear these extremely fancy dresses (or perhaps there is), here are some tips you should borrow on ways to style deep V-neck dresses.

Choose The Right Dress:  

Forgive the repetition, but one of the secrets to looking stylish in a deep V-neck is to choose the right dress for your body shape, size, and skin tone. You’ll also need to decide how much revealing you want it to get. Perhaps there’s a tattoo on your shoulder that you don’t want to reveal or maybe it’s a formal event where you don’t want to appear as a bit inappropriate. In the first case, a long sleeve V-neck dress would be a better option, whereas, in the latter scenario, something that goes just above your knees would do. All the same, the options are limitless when it comes to V-neck dresses, from mini dresses to floor-length, flared, floral, skaters, loose, and tights in all patterns and colors. It all depends on the purpose, your mood, and how daring you can get!

Pick The Right Bra:

Ladies… your bra choice can make or break your day. Depending on your bosom size and your figure, it can affect your comfort level or ruin your sexiness, especially when rocking a deep V-neck dress. As much as some of us can go braless and still feel comfortable, you’ll need to choose a bra that plunges deep in front as far as the dress goes if you need/want some support. In case you’re having a wardrobe malfunction and nothing seems to work right with your V-neck dress, fashionistas from Nueboo say that a boob tape can save the day, whether you decide to wear a bra or not. They are actually way better than bras when you need a lift, to boost cleavage, add contour, and to get the confidence you need, especially when rocking a V-neck dress braless. This is why it’s always advisable to have a few in your wardrobe.

Complete The Look with Some Jewelry:

When wearing a deep V-neck dress, you want most of the focus on your neckline rather than your bosom and lower body. Selecting an eye-catching piece such as a pendant or a silver choker will do you just that, especially if the dress is shorter. A string of pearls could also do if you prefer a vintage look. However, you can also add some spice with a lace bracelet, especially if you’re not so confident about your bra choice and you’re afraid it’s poking out a bit screaming your name. Apart from completing your look when wearing a deep V-neck, a catchy bracelet can be an amazing tool to avoid unwanted situations.

Mind Your Skin:

Again, the biggest beauty in wearing a sexy deep V-neck is that it reveals and showcases the neckline. Therefore, the last thing you want is to reveal skin that looks dull and a bit uncared for. To enhance your look and confidence in the sexy dress, do not forget to exfoliate and moisturize. Before you get in your fancy dress and head out, remember to give your skin some good pampering and get rid of that dead skin using products like salt scrubs, sugar scrub, and loofah sponges. Next, apply your favorite moisturizer to keep that skin glowing, beautiful, and healthy-looking.

Mind Your Posture:

Even with glowing skin and amazing accessories, having poor posture can mess everything up when wearing a deep V-neck dress. You don’t want the fancy outfit to be gaping in all the unwanted places. This is not to forget that posture has a role to play as far as beauty and confidence go. To prevent all the effort, you put into looking amazing from going to waste, keep your head up, shoulders back, and stand straight.

Looking beautiful, sexy, and stylish may cost you time, money, and effort, but it always pays itself back. However, it gets less frustrating when you know what to do. With the above few tips, you can look like Cinderella in a V-neck dress with minimum effort and love it!

Handy Hacks For Building A SS20 Capsule Wardrobe

SS20 is nearly here, which means that now is the perfect time to start focusing on updating your wardrobe, ready for the start of the new season. Of course, if you are hesitant to overhaul your wardrobe, as doing so can be extremely costly, then perhaps you might be thinking about building a capsule wardrobe instead? 

A capsule wardrobe is made up of essential items and go-to basics that create a number of fail-safe seasonal looks. Of course, knowing which items to invest in, in order to build this kind of capsule wardrobe isn’t always easy. But the good news is that with the guide below, you can make it far simpler than you would think to create the perfect SS20 capsule wardrobe. 

Read on for everything that you need to know!

Long skirts 

Once again, long ankle-length skirts (and dresses, too) are coming back. If you’ve already got a number of these designs from previous seasons, then you can easily add them to your SS20 wardrobe. 

This year is all about neutral tones; so any designs in black, grey, beige, or white, are sure to work well. If you have patterned designs in your closet, these aren’t necessarily unusable, it just depends on what you pair them with. If paired with a basic, plain tee and a few well-thought-out accessories, you may be able to give these designs a new lease of life. 

Basic tees and tanks 

As always, when it comes to creating any type of capsule wardrobe, basic items are the most crucial elements. It’s these kinds of simple garments that hold the entire wardrobe together, as they’re so versatile and can be worn in a variety of different ways. For purchasing these kinds of simple tees and tanks, wholesale fashion stores such as Shirt Space are a great place to shop, as the items are affordable and of a high quality. 

Mom jeans 

Mom jeans are once again back this SS20, which means that they are a must-have capsule wardrobe essential. If you plan on adding any jeans to your SS20 capsule wardrobe, it’s a good idea to invest in a high-quality pair of jeans that have been designed to last. When cheaply made mom jeans are overworn, they quickly fade and the material can begin to wear away. That’s why it’s better to invest in a slightly more expensive pair of jeans; to ensure that they will last for the entire season and beyond. 

Minimal sneakers 

Once again, minimal-style sneakers are a must-have wardrobe essential for the coming season. These can be paired with a number of outfits in order to create a diverse range of looks, which is why it’s worthwhile investing in a pair that are designed to last. 

Minimal sneakers can be worn with ankle-length skirts and a denim jacket—creating a nostalgic 90s vibe. Or, they can be teamed with mom jeans and a tucked-in tee. There are a variety of ways in which minimal sneakers can be worn, which is what makes them a SS20 must-have item.

There you have it, a few useful hacks that should help to make building your SS20 wardrobe easier and more affordable.

Appropriate Outfit And Shoes To Win Your First Ballroom Dancing

Heading out to your first ballroom dance? Turning heads doesn’t just depend on your skills and flexibility; you have to look great while performing as well. You should think of the way your clothing will integrate with your dance moves. If it doesn’t, then your performance might not be as spectacular as it could be. While picking your outfit is the last step, it is very crucial for the presentation of your performance. This guide will help you choose the best outfit for your ballroom dance:

All Eyes on You

If you’re a ballroom dancer, and it’s your first time performing in public, then you should know that all eyes will be on you and your dance partner, so you have to dress up for the part! Search for high-quality and vibrant-colored outfits. A female ballroom dancer, in particular, should be more careful when choosing her ballroom dress, as many factors can affect how comfortably you move, including the quality of the fabric and dress size. Also if the color of your dress is dull, you wouldn’t stand out as effectively, and your performance may not turn out the way you had imagined or had planned for.

Flexibility 

While you’re not expected to contort on stage, you’re going to be moving your arms and legs to their maximum. Therefore, you should put these factors in mind as you shop for your dress or suit. Ballroom outfits are generally designed to be comfortable in a way that accommodates your movements, but it wouldn’t hurt to try to dance in your chosen outfit to make sure that it will help you move around on stage. That said, you should avoid super tight attires that would surely hinder your movements.

Choose the Right Dance Shoes

Here comes the most important part of your apparel. Your chosen pair of shoes should allow you to move around comfortably, as opposed to wearing something slippery or tight. Again, you will have to try moving around with the pair of shoes that you want to purchase. Naturally, your shoes shouldn’t be tight; instead, pick something that will fit like a glove. 

Ballroom heels, ballroom shoes, and jazz shoes are excellent when it comes to support and balance. Typically, dance shoes are much lighter than conventional alternatives to ease your mobility. The soles are made of suede, which is light and flexible. So that’s what you should look for when you buy one. Otherwise, you’re free to wear whatever style that will suit your dance performance.

Heels

For the ladies, however, deciding between open-toed and closed-toed heels can be a dilemma, but it is better for beginners to wear open-toed shoes, as they will allow you to tip-toe more easily if the performance requires it. However, the downside of heels, as usual, is pain and calluses, so if you are planning to wear these frequently, you should pay extra care to your foot care routine.

If you think about it, it’s not very hard to find an outfit that will help you with your first ballroom dance performance, so keep our tips in mind when choosing your next clothing and footwear, and you’ll surely notice easily you’ll hold your own in your very first dance. An excellent performance must always be complemented with an equally exceptional look.

Claire’s Life: Celebrating Beauty with Juvia’s Place with Remy Ma, Juju, Amara La Negra, and More!

Happy Thursday, Bombers and Bombshells!

A few weeks ago, I was invited by bomb beauty brand Juvia’s Place to interview fabulous Bombshells like Remy Ma, Juju, Amara la Negra, and Jessie Woo :

Haven’t heard of Juvia’s Place? They are a makeup brand that creates foundations, eyeshadows, and lipsticks for all skin tones, but are best known for how their highly pigmented products pop on darker hues. Juvia’s Place was created as an expression and celebration of the Black Diaspora and is inclusive to ALL RACES. Juvia’s Place empowers all make up lovers around the world to feel beautiful while providing quality products.

The purpose of our Convos with Claire was to discuss Black Beauty in celebration of Black History Month, and learn more about how the ladies feel beautiful, with makeup or without.

We had some interesting chats! Some ladies revealed they were bullied when they were little for how they looked, while others discussed how culture and background impact their view of themselves and how the world sees them.

The Convos were bomb (if I do say so myself). Stay tuned for the drop here and on @ FashionBombDaily !

For the occasion, I unwittingly matched the colorful background in a Victoria Hayes Spring 2020 top and jacket, and of course my favorite Claire Sulmers LTD Creations Jeans:

Stay tuned for more + even more fabulous collaborations with Juvia’s Place.

Beauty Tips For New Moms

If you’re a new mom you will be on the go a lot, and you’re not going to have enough time to yourself, let alone focus on getting ready. If you are finding it hard to look good and feel good with your newfound responsibilities, it doesn’t have to stay that way. We’ve included some beauty tips to help new moms get ahead. 

Prevent Leak Spots

For moms who are breastfeeding, a must have is leak proof tanks, bras or pads. There’s nothing more embarrassing than having a leak spot in public, so it’s best to get ahead and have these on hand. These items will prevent any leakage and soak it in without the spots coming out. The professionals of postpartum wear, Knix, provide information on leakproof wear for all women in case you’re worried about accidents. Most people have heard horror stories involving incidents with leakage, and you want to be prepared for the worst. 

Dry Shampoo – The Savior 

If you’re a new mom, you’re not going to be getting the same amount of sleep you’re used to getting. This also means when you do get to sleep you might not be participating in daily rituals as often. Dry shampoo can be a savior when it comes to keeping your hair looking pristine when you don’t have time to shower. It’s best to apply dry shampoo on at night because it will help your scalp keep its oils. This is also a great method if you catch yourself sleeping in and don’t have time to get ready in the mornings. 

Mascara For Sleepy Eyes 

Your eyes give away how much sleep you’ve gotten the past night. Mascara can be a quick and easy way to detract from your tired looking eyes and make you look fresh as ever. Even if you don’t have the time to get your makeup completely done in the morning, putting on mascara can take a few minutes and it makes all the difference. Try and give yourself a few spare minutes during the day to put some on. 

Coconut Oil Moisturizer 

If you want to keep your face hydrated and avoid the tired look, coconut oil moisturizer is also another great method. It’s best if you apply this on right at bedtime so you’ll wake up feeling and looking fresh. Coconut oil also has fatty acids that can nourish the skin, and you will notice the difference after a few nights of using it. Coconut oil can also reduce acne if this is a problem you are experiencing. 

Cut Your Hair 

This option might sound a little extreme for those attached to their long locks, but less hair does mean less work. If your morning routine is extending a little far, shorter hair can cut the time down in half. It also has the added benefit of costing you less money in shampoo and condition as well. There are tons of short hairstyles that can sport a look that you might like, so don’t knock this method until you try it. 

Sync Your Sleep Routine 

When your infant finally gets to sleep it can be tempting to spend some “mommy” time to yourself and catch up on that book or series. However, your appearance is highly tied to the amount of sleep you get, and when your baby is asleep this is when you’ll want to sleep too. The best thing that you can do for your health is to sync your sleep with your baby’s and take a nap when they do. You really need to take every opportunity you can to catch up on sleep if you’re a new mom. 

Drink Lots Of Water 

Everyone should be drinking lots of water, but if you’re breastfeeding, it’s important that you’re getting enough too. Drinking lots of water is great for breast milk production, but it can also have rejuvenating effects on your skin. If you’re looking to enhance and freshen your skin, ensure you are getting your daily water intake. It’s easy and it doesn’t take much time. If you’re drinking lots of coffee to combat your sleep deprivation, you’ll need to drink more water to combat dehydration. 

It might be hard to get all of these beauty tips done on a consistent basis if you’re sleep deprived and trying to get everything done. Remember to take some time to yourself (whenever you can) to relax and do something you enjoy. Focus on sleeping when your little one is done, and this will do wonders for your sleep hygiene. Most of these tips only take a few minutes out of your day (if that) and they can do wonders for how you look and feel.
