PENCIL DRESS

Hi bloggers, today I'm going to explain a new type of dress. It's name is: PENCIL DRESS! As we can see in the photo this type of dress marks our silhouette and makes a visual effect that slims. With this dress you seem to have the perfect size, 90-60-90. 
We can find it in different colours or prints, but normaly the external line is black. This is because black is so dark and it seems that we are thinner. 






There are other dresses that are clinging without this external line. 
Let's see it: 

BERSHKA




















STRADIVARIUS
























PULL&BEAR

TALL BOOTS

Hi, as you can see in the last article, winter is here and fashion is adapting to it. Today I am going to explain "Tall Boots", which is the winter's women footwear trend! 


Well, with this trend we have to take precaution. It's important that when combining these shoes with our clothes we use width clothing. These boots are very provocative and if we also put them with a narrow and short dress we will transmit an overly provocative image. 
For this reason, we have to combine them with jeans or width dresses and skirts. 
Look at these photos and and check it:
