Finding homecoming dresses to flatter through Dress First
Homecoming Dresses Choosing a homecoming dress should be fun and exciting, not stressful! When you and your friends are ready to shop for homecoming dresses, why not do so through DressFirst? With thousands of dresses at a variety of price points and styles, it��s easy to be the belle of the ball!
Whether you��re looking for something youthful and fresh or want a floor-length ball gown style, DressFirst has tons of options to choose from. Their site makes it easy to search for the gown of your dreams; you can search by silhouette, neckline, hemline, fabric, embellishment, color, and more! Not sure where to start? Here are some simple tips to help you find the best homecoming dress for your special night.
Some dresses are more flattering to certain body shapes. If you��re on the petite side, for example, a billowing ball gown can drown you in excess fabric, so a cocktail style can be more flattering. A one-shoulder style flatters everyone and is a nice alternative to a strapless gown if you have broad shoulders or just need a little extra support or coverage up top. An A-line or empire waist is also universally flattering.
A long dress is considered more formal than a short dress. If you��re going for major drama, you can��t beat a billowing train! But if you��re concerned about your dress interfering with dancing or if your homecoming will have a less formal setting, a cocktail length dress might be a better choice.
Balance accessories and embellishments. A heavily embellished gown will need little to no jewelry to create maximum drama. Consider something with an ornate embellishment on one shoulder or full-on glittering sequins. On the other hand, if you��ve already selected a very unique tiara or piece of jewelry, a simple gown can be the perfect background to show off a stunning piece.
If your dress has a lot of detailing on the back or around the neck and shoulders, consider wearing your hair up so everyone can see the embellishment. If you like the look of a strapless dress but want a little more coverage up top, wear your hair down��it��s a visual trick that makes your shoulders look less bare.
After you��re done shopping for homecoming dresses, don��t forget that DressFirst has tons of options for all of the other formal events in your life. Find wedding-worthy gowns, bridesmaid dresses, and dresses for any formal event such as an engagement party, graduation, or formal dinner! They have everything from simple black cocktail dresses to brightly colored and beaded floor-length gowns, so no matter the occasion, you��re sure to find a dress that you��ll love.
Fashions come and go and personal preferences will obviously rule in your closet. But there are some classic items that no woman should be without. Here are ten pieces of clothing that every woman needs in her

Women��s fashion you didn��t know you could wear2013
Fashions come and go, and lots of new trends crop up from one season to the next that both intrigue and frighten us. Peplum tops? Studs? Patterned tights? Don’t worry, you don’t need the lean frame of a supermodel or the fashion daring of a celebrity to pull off these looks. Here are some cool women’s fashion trends you can wear this winter, even if you’re a fashion newbie.
Patterned tights. Sweater tights, with cozy Fair Isle knit patterns, look super cute when worn with a mini and boots; pair them with a plain long-sleeved tee rather than a sweater to keep the look cute, not, er, woolly.
Studs. To many, studs scream “biker”, but they don’t have to be all tough and intimidating. Why not try a few strategically placed studs on a clutch, a pair of pumps, or on the trim of a blouse or jacket? Pair with ladylike items like a dress, a lace blouse, or a chain-strap handbag and you’ll have a look that’s still feminine.
A peplum top, coat, or dress. The flared shape looks scary, but it’s actually perfect for ladies of all sizes. If you’re athletic, it’ll give you an hourglass figure; if you’ve already got the hourglass, guess what? It fits you perfectly, especially when paired with sleek bottoms like a pencil skirt or skinny jeans.
Sheer fabrics. There’s a fine line between sheer and “wardrobe malfunction”, so make sure you’re wearing a) appropriate undergarments and b) not showing any other skin. A sheer top with skinny jeans is cute; with a micro mini it starts to look sleazy.
Brocades and baroque. Not daring enough for a dress with so much embellishment? Grab a handbag for a low-commitment dip into the trend.
Oxblood. Such a vampy color can be intimidating, but it’s actually a great partner for camel, cream, and a variety of other fall shades like brown, rust, and mustard. Pairing it with these warm colors avoids any Goth connotations. Try it on shoes or jeans, or go vampy head-to-toe with an oxblood dress. Want to lighten it up? Use it as an accent.
