Every woman deserves to look and feel beautiful.

Who was your favourite at the Durban July? Below - Claire Mawisa elegantly rocked this beautiful maxi skirt - however, I think this skirt would have been amazing without the side details - the length, fabric and colour is stunning....Less is more! Love the high waist and colourblocking!!! Azania rocked an electric blue dress with embellished bustier. The lines of the bustier is elegant and slimming. Love the contrast of soft VS the bright! Well done! Katlego Makoena is also a fuller figure beauty - but can you see how she pulls of the lemon dress? I would have added a bit of length to the hem (to cover the knees) but furthermore I love everything about this dress including the nude V-shoes - The shape of the shoes slim the foot and ankles! Again - You don't have be a size eight to look great!! I added this pic because I thought this was one of the best looking couples.....what do you think?

Mo'nique is a fuller figured beauty who is comfortable with her size! You don't have to cover everything or be afraid to be adventurous! Embrase your shape and rock your style!!!!Well done Mo'nique!  

Gwyneth is a long lean gorgeous rectangular shape. She accentuates her best assets and shows off her shape effortlessly. Below are some of her beautiful  looks! :-)  The key is to keep your styling feminine, to add shape and curve. Gwyneth is fortunate to have a great set of legs....not very common amongst rectangles. Bows, ruffles, sheer laces, and satins, are great for you!! Because you are tall - you can carry it off beautifully!!! Gwyneth you are gorgeous!

Below are some celebrities that share your shape! The shoulder, waist and hip is normally more or less the same, and this frame is often called a 'boyish' frame. Uma Therman, Cameron Diaz, and  Nicole Kidman are probably some of the best known 'rectangles' that  style themselves beautifully

Short, boxy jackets - the jacket ends near stomach area and of 'broadens'the are you would much rather camouflage. Pleated skirts - add volume to your shape, and is often unflattering. Broad, horisontal line - are a big 'no-no'. This accentuates the stomach area. Please don't believe the lie - that you have to wear baggy longer tops, - it only makes you look even bigger! Empire lines or wrap styles are great for you hun :-))

Appleshaped celebrities that works their style. My favourite here is Drew - The diagonal lines on the bust create a slimming effect and do you see how she wears a dress that is not fitted, but just skims the hip and waist. My concern is the manner in which she 'poses'shows off her lines - Tip - watch the pose....or opt for a deeper colour?? I must admit - I do not like Jessica Simpson's dress - there is the danger that it might accentuate the wait and bust even more, but she pulls it off well. I know their secret - slimmers!!  Don't go to your flashy event without it hun.......Do you know it slims you almost by 2 sizes?
