It is all about the shoulders this s/s 2016! And the modest yet hottest is the cold shoulder but who named them cold shoulders??? I mean they make you look like a bomb without having to show off much, they should be called hot shoulders!!!
I also love them because 1) they are as practical and appropriate to wear to the mall, for grocery shopping or brunch as they are for date night or clubbing or even to work. 2) they have no age limit and none of us should hesitate from flaunting those hot shoulders, I mean come on there is no cleavage show, or legs display!!!! Sexy without showing skin is super thumbs up!!
Midi length dresses or skirts paired with tops/ shirts in the cold shoulder style work great for modest styles and minis, overalls or denim shorts work super for fun and youthful styles. I have linked some very cool cold shoulder dress options from modest to bold for you to have a look and try.
Todays look is more appropriate for a date night or a formal event or a lunch date with the girls but I am already inching to wear this dress with sneakers for shopping tomorrow.
Dress- stradivarius ( similar)
Heels- dune london ( similar)
Bag- Asos
Earrings- local boutique
The single strap heels are a must have in every girls closet. Shoe styles will come and go but this one ain't going anywhere. It's a classic and the safest heeled shoe to pair with any outfit for any occasion. One in nude and black is a must and you can add one colour option to your collection depending on what colour clothes you mostly wear. Spending a little extra is worth for such classic pieces you will wear year after year, brands like Steve Madden, Dune London or even ASOS do good ones at fairly reasonable prices. Some great ones are linked above.
I am wearing my favourite lipstick of all time the revlon matte balm in the shade shameless, it's the exact shade as Mac heroine but much more nourishing and looks great worn both light and dark. Purple lips were everywhere at the recently concluded Cannes film festival 2016 so I am super happy to wear it even more. I would mostly wear it light by dabbing with my fingers for just a hint of purpley mauvey color on the lips but for this look I chose to apply it a little dark to add some edginess. Love the contrast of the lips with the effortlessness of the braid and the sweetness of the small florals on the dress. Contrasting elements always make for interesting and fresh looks.
Thank you for stopping by! See you in my next one.

I agree with your thoughts on cold-shoulders, they are for all occasions and all ages. Same about one-strap sandals - every woman should own a pair. I love this fun little dress. I cannot stop buying off-shoulder or cold-shoulder lately, even sharing one in today's outfit. Come take a peek. And thanks for sharing that awesome lipstick, too.
ReplyDeleteDo stop by today and linkup with me too, pretty lady. A brand-new Thursday Moda linkup is currently up. Thanks and Happy Memorial Day Weekend! Ada. =)

Such a lovely dress, Chichi! I love the "cold shoulder" trend, too, but agree with you that they should totally be renamed the "hot" shoulder :) I love your hair and heels, too, they really enhance the romantic feel of the dress! Thanks so much for sharing and I hope you have a great weekend ahead!
