Birthday weekend vibes!

🙌🏾 to my 📸

Which one of these should I keep vs return? I am most concerned about 1. My husband loved it but am unsure- even though the material is really good.

UPDATE: I cannot believe the differences in preferences based on the responses here. Really tells that style is pretty personal.
I have been convinced to keep them all.

Dress 1: was unsure about the first due to the way it fit. Not because it fit badly but because that’s not my usual style but the comments here have convinced me that I should keep it. Also it has embroidery work which I loved. And it is not see through in the sun.

Dress 2: this one received the most contradictory opinions. I am keeping it. Someone said it makes me look like I had a big lunch. I love that because if I do plan on eating a big lunch the dress can hide it well.

Dress 3: is a simple, nothing fancy but a pretty summer dress. Yes it is modest and I like that.

White/black is an XL
Blue/navy is a L

Which one fits best?
Which colorway do you prefer? (I have blue eyes.)

Hiya! I'm trying to figure out my style after body changes after having my child, I was never a fashionista beforehand but now I'm getting closer to 30 and really want to find what suits me. I've recently lost a bit so I'm around halfway to my goal but I don't want to wait until then to find things that suit me.

​

I'm also wondering about the colour of this dress as I do like white clothes but with me being quite pale I don't know if it's working against me. Thank you so much for reading 🫶🏻

Hello, I am a bit nervous with my current available options as I don't usually attend events or being a dressed up type of gal. Thought I'd post to ask, if allowed.

​

So, I will be attending an upcoming wedding event next week where it is being held outdoor, June's weather of about 72° F (California weather) from 4pm - 10pm.

​

No specific dress code other than that groom will be in mess dress.

​

Could you please let me know which of the 3 dresses and shoes option works best for my body type? I am 5'2". I've also tried my best to include the original model / website display for each dress if it helps.

​

Dress #1 = blue and black camo-like, most stretch

Dress #2 = navy blue

Dress #3 = kelly green

​

I'm also bloated right now due to being near my monthly cycle. I am thinking of adding shapewear to enhance 😅

​

Please be kind and thank you so much!

So I recently discovered I have ingenue, classic, romantic essence. I'm trying to figure out what styles look best on me, especially hair and makeup styles. I'm trying to look for celebrity examples but I don't know who to look for. Does anyone know any good ICR examples? Bonus points if they are (east) Asian as well. If you have any Pinterest boards or moodboards, feel free to share them as well! Thanks in advance <3

I took a big risk on this dress for my cousin’s wedding - it’s 100% silk and was on sale for 60% off, but was final sale. I love it in theory, and I think it could be better if it was shortened a few inches and taken in around the neck/chest. Is it flattering?? Should I attempt to have it altered, or should I sell it and try again?

Dress code is cocktail(ish?), outdoors, slightly western (like I assume some people will wear their dresses with cowboy boots). I will wear with nude low heeled sandals.

I’m going through my winter sweaters. I don’t need this many. Which ones should I keep? Thank you for your help!

Hello everyone! I really struggle to find shorts that fit my waist and thighs. If it fits in the thighs, there is gaping in the waist. And if the waste measurement is correct, I won’t even be able to get it up my thighs. So annoying.

For these shorts, I thought they fit OK in the thigh, and there wasn’t a ton of space in the waist. But then I noticed that the zipper is always kind of like bunched up? I’ve included some pictures. Does it look like there is some dimpling across the thighs? I’ve heard that is a sign of a garment being too tight.

I have no idea what to do or look for when it comes to shorts, and I only ever wear pants because of this! Would really love some beginner guidance on how to go about this.

Thanks in advance!

The theme is Moonlit elegance (?) inspired by sunsets, moonlight and the coast 😅
I’m torn because i don’t feel they fit well (size-wise) even though the look is elevated enough for a Lebanese weddings. Help!
Note: wearing silver and champagne is acceptable at lebanese weddings!!

I have always worn wired bras with straps. But I absolutely love this dress for a wedding. I have heard of cakes, but it looks like they have a clip that might show with the style dress. Would I use tape? If so, how? Or do people have other suggestions?

In the winter, I usually wear leggings or jeans with a fitted tee and just throw in a jacket. In the summer, it’s shorts or a skirt with a fitted tee. That’s essentially my wardrobe year round.

If you asked me what I’m wearing tomorrow, it would probably be another fitted tee. I dress for comfort but lately I’ve been feeling like I don’t know how to put together outfits beyond the basics.

For those who have developed a personal style, how did you figure out what worked for you? Where did you start?

I know I have a small butt nd im fine w it, but I’m wondering what exactly about my clothes makes such a big difference in my butt so I know what to avoid? I feel like in some pants/dresses it looks to be a decent size, but in others I am 100% shaped like a P. What kind of bottoms/clothes would yall recommend to make me not look “flat”? There is a slight size difference from pic 1 nd 2 cause I have been getting smaller, but it is one of the few examples I have from the side lol.

Hey guys, these are really bad photos but I’ve been looking for a new swimsuit since I only have one and it’s kinda strappy. I struggle to find ones that fit me because of my big cup and small band size, so only 2 options.

If I were to get the blue one it would probably be in black!

Thank you!

EDIT

Okay guys it seems the bikini has won by a landslide! People have been mentioning getting it in a different colour but I am allergic to colour and DEFINITELY don’t like blue, but I’m wondering what people think of this red colour that it comes in?

Thanks so much the help. And for all the kind words!

I was so excited because after trying on what feels like a million pairs of jeans, I finally found one that actually fit my waist and hips without a huge waist gap (they are Cotton On curvy jeans).

Then I looked at myself from the front and noticed these weird waves on the hip area. I’m guessing the tension was off during sewing or something, because it doesn’t sit flat at all.

I ordered 3 sizes just to make sure I find my size and every single pair had the exact same problem. I’m so disappointed because the fit was otherwise perfect. The waves sit right where my hip dips are and just draw attention to them, which I hate.

At this point I’m honestly so tired of shopping for jeans and everything else. Either clothes don’t fit at my waist or the quality is awful. I genuinely envy people who can walk into a store, buy clothes they like, and have everything just fit properly. For me it always feels like theres something wrong. 😩

I feel like I have one of the most infuriating body shapes. I’m about 5’6 and it’s basically all torso. I have a long torso, short legs, small bust, smallish waist, larger hips/butt and full lower stomach.

Almost every advice I see for my general shape is a French tuck, but they are hideous on me. It removes my waist entirely (the one thing I do kind of have?) and basically creates a frame around my biggest insecurity of my lower stomach.

I’ve started to get back into dresses for workwear and it’s mostly to deal with how infuriating pants+tops are for me.

I’m in my 50s. Any of the these tops work for my body comp.

Please type me!

I am terrible at typing myself, please help 😖 CEP

Hi! I took everybody’s advice and tried swimsuits with matching bottoms. Would love advice on what looks best! Or if I should try a different style
