Bare Shoulder Silhouette| Ma Belle Allure | Florence and Marabel

Hello, I’m Simone Parker from Ma Belle Allure. Thanks for dropping by. Once again, I have collaborated with Toowoomba boutique, Florence and Marabel to show you how to wear the bare shoulder silhouette style trend.

Either strapless to reveal full shoulders or with cut outs to reveal just a peek of shoulder, this look is sexy and feminine. It is also a look that suits a range of age groups and body shapes.

This shorter length, denim off-the-shoulder dress is flirty and feminine and perfect for weekend brunches and daytime events. If you have thin toned legs like Cara this shorter length looks fabulous. The fullness of the dress is also great for hiding a tummy and can also work to disguise larger hips or thighs. You just need to choose the right length dress for your height. If you want a bit more coverage, this dress looks fantastic with a pair of tights. I have teamed this dress with a pair of espadrilles and an oversized bag for a casual, young and feminine look.

This dress can also be up-styled for evenings or parties. If you want to give your figure some curves or show off the curves you are blessed with, add a great belt to cinch in your waist. I have then teamed this dress with these fantastic animal print ankle boots. These boots are very flattering even if your legs are a little heavier because you can undo the zip to give more room around the ankle. This extra width can actually make your legs appear slimmer. If your legs aren’t as long as Cara’s a block heel, strappy sandal will be comfortable to wear but has the added advantage of making your legs look longer. Another great thing about this little dress is an elasticised neckline allowing you to wear the dress at various positions on your shoulder – so you can choose the most flattering look for you.

The denim off-the-shoulder dress didn’t suit Gabby because it made her look top-heavy. Instead we have styled Gabby in this great navy flowing shift dress. You get a similar relaxed look with this dress but the v neck line is far more flattering for a larger bust. The sleeve gives coverage to your upper arm, which a lot of women like. This dress would also be flattering if you have a troublesome tummy. Adding a block heel in a similar tone to your skin makes your legs look longer and slimmer. Team with an oversized bag and you are ready for any occasion.
