Blame it on the feminist movement or the pursuit of something stylistically new, but over the years women have borrowed heavily from men’s fashions. Now don’t get me wrong, this is a very flattering look whether you’re just wearing a boyfriend jacket or going full androgynous.
However, there are times when a woman needs to highlight her feminine side (other than at weddings and proms). It seems that the feminine look is synonymous with spending hours and lots of money to get the look. Yes, that’s not entirely true, and we’ll prove it to you.
All you need are a few select items and voila, you have your feminine look.
-
Arc
Em… no, not a bow tie but a ribbon for your hair. Now before you think that this is just for kids, think again. Today’s celebrities rock pretty little bows in their hair and look flawless. If you are not sure about how to tie it, you can tie it first and wear it right away.
-
Delicate jewelry
I know this goes against the current trend of bold statements jewellery but delicate dainty jewelery creates a subtle feminine look and allure with ease. Plus, it doesn’t have to be expensive.
-
Form-fitting clothing
Nothing says femininity like a woman’s body itself. Her curves are inherently feminine so getting clothes that accentuate them creates the perfect feminine look. Now, let me put a disclaimer here. We’re not saying you’re wearing a cat suit here, just get something that creates waist definition and flatters your curves and you’ll be good to go. These are available at affordable prices at grocery stores so you don’t have to break the bank.
-
Ruffles and frills
Now, these are just feminine and admittedly they can end in a less flattering way but with me here. Tastefully crafted ruffles and frills on a top or blouse can help you achieve a feminine look without much effort.
-
Lace
If ever there was a definition of femininity in a cloth it is lace. It’s beautiful, timeless, classic and versatile while screaming soft femininity. You can mix the above lace patterns, get a lace dress or add lace accents to your ensemble and you are sure to look very feminine.
-
Belt
Again, the shape of a woman is what creates a truly effortless feminine look and one way to accentuate that shape is by wearing a belt. By placing the belt around your natural waist, you create a curvy and flattering silhouette that says, ‘I’m every woman…’ and it’s all pretty simple, right?
-
A coat that tightens the waist
Again by creating a feminine shape… this long or medium length coat when tied at the waist has a way of keeping you warm and exuding all kinds of femininity at the same time. Plus, they work beautifully with women of all shapes and sizes.
So you see, with a little money and a little effort, you can create such an easy, feminine look beautiful and celebrating you.
