Throw on a belt with a vintage buckle to give your outfit a subtle twist. Furthermore, a perfectly worn belt makes a tailored outfit less fussy while giving it a rock and roll vibe. To Highlight Your Waist and Curves Belts should be a must-have accessory for all the beautiful hourglass and pear-shaped ladies. A belt will not only flatter your curves but will also show off your waist when worn with the perfect outfit. Belts can also create an illusion of a waist for other body shapes such as a rectangular or inverted triangle. If you are an apple-shaped lady, you can find clever ways to cinch your belt so that it flatters your figure. Classic types of belts you need know Many varieties of belts exist in the market today. Whether you chose elastic, colorful, leather, woven, or a combination, the most important thing should be whether the belt flatters your body or not. Elastic belts are comfortable because they give you room for movement. Here are some classic belts that will elevate your look. 1.

Except for the width, the classic braided belt hasn’t changed much.

Bottega Veneta and Channel’s black braided belts are quite popular this season. Grab one for yourself and rest assured that it will never go out of style. 3.

Fashion enthusiasts describe the snakeskin belt as a pretty, rich, earthly accessory. Simplicity and comfort should take the lead in any kind of outfit, whether it is bold or subtle. And this makes so much sense because Cobra, Python, and Karung snakeskin belts have become fashion favorites in the runways. Fashionistas consider the snakeskin belt a timeless classic. 4.

They have slowly found their way into mainstream fashion again are going to rule the industry for a long time. 5. Silver/gold belts Metallic belts are stunning and they draw attention to the waist or hips depending on where they are worn. Silver belts strike a different mood when worn over plain dresses or with jeans and shorts. Metallic accessories bring eclecticism and aesthetics into the fashion world. With a splash of metallic vibes, silver and gold belts bring delicate and intricate sophistication suggestive of having too much fun to any outfit. What Belt Looks Best by Body Type The buzz around belts won’t die down soon. You better grab one for yourself. The big question, however, is, what belt should you go for depending on your body type? Petite body Petite women are stunning and so should their belt choices. A skinny or medium belt that doesn’t overpower your frame should be your first selection. The belt should match your pants or skirt to give an illusion of longer legs. Use a hip belt to hide a short waist, or to give you a curvier appearance. Gucci has a wide selection of skinny and medium belts for the fashion-forward petite woman. Tall and slim frame More like world-famous super-models, Naomi Campbell and Gigi Hadid, tall, slim women can play around with belts to add sophistication to their outfits.  A wide belt will make a slim figure appear curvier while skinny belts give an illusion of wide, voluptuous hips. You can work this out by adding patterns or colorful prints to your plain outfits as a tall, slim woman. Curvy body type Curvy women are the luckiest when it comes to belts. All kinds of belts can look flattering on the curvy frame. A stretchy belt will define your silhouette and make your waist stand out. The elasticity of the belt will help you show off your sexy, playful side. Dark-colored belts will give an illusion of a slimmer frame if that is your goal. To create the perfect hourglass figure, tie the belt around the smallest part of your waist. If you have a full bust, then make sure to tie the belt at least 12 inches below your bust. 3 Ways to Wear a Belt this summer Belts are taking the runways by storm and they stand out best when they are worn independently. They are here to stay so you better arm yourself with one this summer. Here's some advice on how to wear belts this summer; Break Up a Monochrome Outfit A belt can help blend your outfit and bring it all together. It is even better if you are wearing a monochrome outfit. We are all guilty of this. You choose black pants, a black top, and boots and you throw on a black jacket on your way out. Imagine the level of sophistication you can add to that when you put in a splash of color with a bold-colored belt. Kendal Jenner and Bella Hadid are some of the celebrities adding fire to the flames of the belted monochrome look this summer. Over a Jumpsuit Jumpsuits can flatter most, if not all body shapes, and they are making a comeback this summer, especially with the belt trend. They are chic and super comfortable. Tailored jumpsuits worn with stilettos are perfect for official events while colorful options can be worn with sandals for casual events. Belts are the perfect accessory to transform a jumpsuit from simple to edgy. You can throw in a snakeskin, wide or metallic belt to a plain jumpsuit. You can never go wrong with a belt over a jumpsuit. Belt Over a Maxi Dress Do you need a quick way to upgrade your maxi summer dress? Well, look no further than a belt, an accessory that never goes out of style. A belt will give a maxi dress definition while adding femininity to your body. Belts come in many fabrics, designs, and styles. The only trick is to understand how best to wear the belt with your dress. Wide and fancy belts work well with maxi dresses in plain or colorful shades. The fancy or printed option can be worn with plain outfits. You can also go for belts embellished with beads, chains, or diamantes. Animal/snakeskin prints can be worn with any dress. Neon, electric or bright colored belts will instantly upgrade light or natural colored maxi dresses.

8 Most Stylish Jewelry to Wear for Summer 2021

  8 Most Stylish Jewelry to Wear for Summer 2021 “Accessories are the exclamation point of a woman’s outfit,” Michael Kors  Flowers are blooming, daffodils are blossoming and birds are chirping suggesting the arrival of spring. Summer is just around the corner. Everyone will start wearing sandals, bright jewelry, swimwear, and cutoffs soon. While we’ve all been living in our pajamas as we binge on Netflix, some stylish jewelry could lift our moods and brighten up our days. The pandemic has ushered in a new era of zoom and skype meetings and this has initiated waist-up dressing that highlights jewelry, especially necklaces and earrings. Most designers picked on this idea and ran with it for their spring/summer 2021 categories. Many variations of jewelry were put on display; from chunky chains to pearls and everything in between. The designers complemented their favorite jewelry choices with trendy fringes, seams, and beautiful collarbones. You may be familiar with some summer 2021 jewelry trends – super-sized chains and colorful jewels have always been our all-time favorite, while others like sparkly earrings and neon hues are a breath of fresh air as we go into the warm season. Simple jeweled headbands may be simple, but they also appeared and they were super charming. Crystal pendants that were added to many collections give us a healing effect that we can all appreciate as we tackle the pandemic. Major bling was delivered by crystal in diamante, while feathers, metallics, and flowers gave us optimistic vibes. The multiple ring trend then wrapped up the season’s jewelry collection. It is a trick so simple; you can easily recreate it in the comfort of your home.   All Summer 2021 jewelry combinations have a seductive vibe and pretty appeal that will breathe life into any outfit. They are so cute, you might be tempted to wear them all, at once! Whether you are living it out at the beach, chilling out at the park, staying at home, or running errands around town, here's a list of the 8 most stylish jewelry trends you can add to your outfits for Summer 2021. 1.Super-sized chains Super-sized chains ruled the 2021 Summer collection. Super-sized chains have evolved tenfold and come in oversized versions. Designers made a statement on the runways -- from variations of glitzy gold links and oversized chockers to super-sized hoops, nothing was off-limits. Fine chains and other boho-styled jewelry took a backseat as chunky metallic designs graced the runways. We will definitely keep Hermes and Victoria Beckham’s chunky-chain styles in mind and recreate them with our everyday beach outfits. If you are looking for a simple, swift way to spice up your outfit and maintain a decent level of sophistication, then look no further than the chunky jewelry style. It will make a boring work or party outfit pop up with elegance. A refined, minimalist vibe works best for the daytime. Take it a step further at night and make a bold statement with layered choices or splash in some adventurous colorful creations. 2. Single earring Some things such as jewelry trends could get lost in translation with everything that 2020 put us through. But we all have to agree that we can’t ignore the single earing vibe any longer. It has begged for the spotlight long enough. We are so obsessed with the ultra-modern single-earring looks from Alberta, Ferretti, Fendi, among many others. Other designers added a little creativity to the trend by adorning their models with earrings of varying lengths too. If you are an asymmetry fan, then you’ve got to love this trend. You can use it to add some wonkiness to your plain outfits. The single earring trend, just like that Tinder much you’ve overlooked for too long, deserves a second chance. 3. Bag Necklace Holder bags were already trending in Fall. You are probably wondering why holder bags are being mentioned when the conversation is about stylish jewelry trends for summer 2021. Well, here’s the memo. The runways combined the very best of the two worlds. Necklaces designed to look like bags dominated the runways in Summer 2021. Other designers played around more and even had the necklaces styled in the form of boots. First spotted on Gucci runway in 2013, the bag necklace has gained full momentum and is finally getting the designer treatment it deserves this season. Come next year and designers may create bags that act like necklaces too, and believe me, we will love them. Check Chanel and Max Mara's latest collections if you don't believe me. Their latest collections are proof that the "double look" has lots of potential. Others call this trend double duty and that is exactly what it is. 4. Multiple necklaces The multiple necklace trend has flourished and quickly become the new way of using jewelry to make a statement. From simple gold chain layers on layers to old-fashioned pendants, sexy chokers, chunky, super-sized chains, layering is an art well-mastered by all our favorite Instagram influencers and dearest bloggers. Chanel pioneered this trend, followed by Balmain and Alexander McQueen who took it to another level with gothic inspirations. Alessandro Michele and Gucci also helped to make the trend mainstream   There is no need to dispose of your coin necklaces just yet. Every fashion-conscious lady is layering those necklaces you may have forgotten at the back of your closet. Even the red carpet is buzzing with celebrities who are wearing multiple necklaces. You can create this look at home – with the right set of instructions of course. You already have multiple necklaces lying around that you can build upon. The trick is to make sure all the necklaces have different lengths. 5. Beach Vibes We always fall in love with the beach, and everything that comes with it as soon as spring rolls in. With this in mind, many designers introduced shell-inspired jewelry pieces that have been reproduced with aquatic inclined themes. Other designers incorporated materials from nature such as stones in their Summer 2021 collection. Natural and raw shells were other approaches designers used to give their collection a natural and delicate feel. The beachy, jewelry trend gives us laid-back, Laguna beach vibes we can really use now that we are still stuck at home. We are so obsessed with all the fun colors and amazing silhouettes we can use to stand out and make our most boring outfits lively. Colorful bangles and pearls, seashell earrings, and bean anklets are some of the beachy jewelry pieces that work perfectly when layered or on their own.  Jennifer Behr, Eliou, and Roxanne Assoulin played around with this trend best. 6. Colorful/Neon jewels Nothing screams summer like colorful jewels. They are bold and powerful enough to grab attention instantly. We want nothing more than a vibrant injection of neon colors after what has been a boring pandemic-stricken year. An eighties kind of neon is what dominated Versace runways. Other designers like Chanel went for an ultra-modern look; they showcased polished pearls with a touch of tropical pink. Fine jewelry designers such as Bea Bongiasca, Azagury Patridge, and Solange chose fluorescent designs so bright they can tear through your retina. We all love to embrace colors during summer and neon jewelry is quickly taking the fashion world by storm. The right pop of color over a stunning outfit will instantly elevate you to the million-dollar club. The fluorescent trend is here to stay and it will continue to give us the much-needed glow up this season. 7. Off the Cuff Statement bracelets are associated with so much charm. Even better is when you choose a single, unique experimental piece rather than a whole bunch of layered bangles. Sculptured jewelry pieces gave us the much-needed break we needed from the obvious choices. It’s like they jumped from the back of our minds straight into the runways. Chloe, Jacquemus, and Lavin designed their off-the-cuff look in ways we can't resist. You become ten times as stylish and edgy as soon as you add off-the-cuff jewelry to your wrist. Try it today. 8. Pearl effect You might as well change your mind if you think pearls are reserved for grandmas. If you look closely, you will see pearls being revived, from superstars such as Harry Styles, Vice President Kamala Harris to Youth Poet Laureate Amanda Gorman. You can incorporate pearls in the form of classic, elegant drop earrings, a beautiful wraparound necklace, or cute bracelets that can easily add sophistication to your outfit.   Pearls are still as charming and timeless as they were many years back. Simone Rocha is one designer who has made pearls part of her statement look. For Summer 2021, she created outsized girandoles and added them onto hair nets and necklaces. Emilia Wickstead in collaboration with Jessica McCormack created luxury pieces which they then showcased in the collection. Use modern-day pearls to add luster and class to any of your night or day looks.   You don’t have to miss out on the modern spin on the pure and timeless beauty of pearls or any other trend in this list.

While summer collections have always been more inclined towards vacation staples; macrame shoulder bags and straw toes, most designers recalled that we only embark on a few days of outings these days. Daily commutes have been replaced with farmer's market runs while boozy brunch picnics have taken over night-outs and weekend club hopping. Dressing our water bottles and PPEs to the nines has become more practical than last season's micro bag trend. This is not to say that trends have completely shifted, if anything most designers revisited tried-and-true trends and gave them a real purpose. The summer 2021 handbag trends were more inclined towards fashion that not is not only up to our alley but also more sensible. Picnic-inspired bags and phone bags ruled the runways. Roomy totes and boxy bags in pretty, splashy colors, structured silhouettes, and chained elements were among this season’s delightful options. The summer 2021 collection is quite inclusive; minimal to embellished, oval to square, raffia to leather, we have no choice but to marvel at these designers’ creativity.

The chunky chain which has traditionally featured on belts and jewelry became a key trend on handbags as well. The chunky chain trend was pioneered by Bottega Veneta on their popular Cassette bag. For many of us, it was love at first sight. Bottega Veneta's Chain Cassette became a major hit and from that moment, the trend seemed to gain momentum overnight. Now they are a must-have accessory—they have taken the fashion world by storm. Chains have been making appearances since the fall of 2019, but in 2021 colorful, chunky acrylic chains became the most famous trend for jewelry, shoes, and bag straps.

DeMellier and Manu Atelier showcased lady bags and leather pouches with multi-colored links that might be heavy but still very feminine. This trend is quickly becoming a favorite among fashion-forward girls in the street style crew. The chunky chain craze is a fashion bandwagon you must hop on immediately.

Chanel stood out with its stylish black bucket bag designed with contrasting pearls. Feathers, fluffs, and pearls add excitement and glamor to plain outfits. Any day or night-time ensemble can look perfect when fluffed up the right way. For a bohemian look, you can work with fringe. 2020 being the year where people got comfortable at home because of the pandemic, the fluff trend that was already in full craze did not come as a surprise when it trickled down into 2021. The fluffy handbags first exploded on TikTok last year and they aren’t showing any signs of letting up. They resemble totes a little bit, only these little furry cuties are simple accessories that you can throw on the go. They may look too cute, but these embellished accessories have enough space to hold all your belongings; receipts, hair ties, phone, credit cards, and make-up. 2021 is full of functionality, shouldn’t your bag reflect just that? Oversized Totes What’s better than an oversized bag that you can fit in all your belongings? We may be unable to travel at the moment, but we can still dream of packing up for our dream destination. Oversized totes were one of the more down-to-earth styles on the Summer 2021 collection. Designers included sleek shopper totes that can easily suit your needs when you are running daily errands on the runways. Most of them came in angular, sleek, and sharp shapes. SUNNEI, Balenciaga, and Schiaparelli were among the fashion houses that showcased their exaggerated versions of the bags.

Salvatore Ferragamo, Max Mara and The Attico quickly followed suit and convinced us that emerald green is truly one of the favorite shades of the season. From the catwalk to the streets, green has just taken over spring/summer 2021 fashion. Kelly green symbolizes rebirth and it connects us to the bright greenery of nature which symbolizes freedom.

Nina Ricci showed no restrain in Paris when she paired chartreuse bags with straight-leg cobalt denims. Chartreuse blends perfectly with its opposites; purples and blues but if you want to pay it safe, you can pair it with submissive neutrals such as black tan and white.

We’ll give you some ideas of summer nail art trends 2020 that are so gorgeous you won’t be able to choose just one. Beautiful Nail Art Styles you should not Miss Out When choosing a beautiful nail art design, you should consider the season it is, the clothes you’re going to wear and of course, your own personality and preferences. However, investigating a bit about the styles that are trendy at a specific season is a must since nail art keeps changing with the course of time and with each season. Here’s a list of some of the latest nail art styles for this summer 2020. Colorful French Manicure Bolder brides can opt for a French-manicure style but different to the classic one, bright colors can be combined. This is a good option for brides whose dresses are not white.   Degrade style This is a very common style nowadays and you can choose any color combinations you like. It starts with the softer color in the root of your nail and starts getting dark on its way to the edge. If you like this style and want to adapt it to your wedding day, you can go for pinks, whites and silvers. Shiny style Another trendy style this year is the shiny one: sparkles everywhere! This is simple yet stunning and you can choose the color you feel the most comfortable with.   Top Summer Nail Art Trends 2020 Ok, so you’ve seen some of the latest and most beautiful nail art design and styles for this summer. Within each design and style, you have many different trend options to choose from and to adapt to your wedding occasion: colors, textures, sparkles, and so on. Let’s take a look at some bride summer nail art trends 2020. French Manicure with Flower Details This is a delicate alternative from the classic French manicure. If you like that style but you dare to add a bit more, go ahead and try this beautiful option. Marble Style This style gives your hands an elegant look. You can combine two colors and leave one or two nails plain. Also, you can add a metallic string as showed in the picture. Pearly + Shiny Style If you love shiny nails but it’s too much for you, you can go for this variant: just one shiny nail and the rest of them with a pearly tone. You can opt for colors like pink as in the picture, white, or why not, grey? Luxurious Golden Style This one is not for everyone. If you like having your nails done in bold, eye-catching styles, this might be your one and only. A massive combination of textures, shines and colors with beading. Gold and silver are two good colors for this style, after all, as the saying goes: Go big or go home! Plain color style If you don’t feel comfortable with any of the styles and trends we presented you with above, you are probably more of a plain color style. For your big day, colors such as pink, nude, white and soft grey are a perfect choice. All things considered, you may still feel these nail art summer trends and styles are not appropriate for you. If that’s the case, you shouldn’t worry. There are two more options that may suit you: Plain color, which means you only choose one single color for your nails, or a combination of plain color plus one shiny nail on each hand. For these options, the most subtle and appropriate colors are pink, nude, white and grey. How to Select the Best Nail Art for Your Wedding Dress Last but not least, after giving you some ideas of the summer nail art trends 2020 and beautiful nail art designs, we’re now going to give you some tips on how to choose the best nail art design to make it match your wedding dress. Be careful with textures. Don’t overload because too much can have a negative impact on your outfit. If your wedding dress is made with lace, broderie, ribbons, beading, or other impressive details, you should try to choose a subtle nail art design. On the other hand, if your dress is simple and with a plain fabric, you can go for more luxurious nail art styles. The color is important. Unless you have an out-of-the-ordinary wedding dress, say, for example, a burgundy color one, don’t choose bright colors. For the classic white wedding dress, you should try to keep it white, pink, grey, silver or gold. Be yourself. Don’t choose styles that will make you feel awkward once portrayed in your hands. Before choosing your nail art style for one of the most important days of your life, think what makes you feel comfortable and most importantly, what makes you feel yourself.
