Being a wallflower gets you nowhere. Who wants to stay in the shadows, ignored and overlooked? Not me. I want to be checked out by everyone, clocked and noticed by all. How am I going to achieve that? With some of the freshest fashion this side of Planet Party-girl. Read on for five failsafe fashion flavours guaranteed to get you noticed for all the right reasons…

Sweet silhouettes

You’ve got to work your best angles to get noticed and that means accentuating all the positives. Your body is beautiful so clad it in the best gift wrap possible – dress to please yourself first, because when you are feeling happy and confident in your clothing, it shines out of you like a super-charged sunbeam. Feminine dresses that follow your contours will not only get you noticed, but they’ll make you feel mighty fine. Try out bandage dresses for their figure hugging flattery and sophisticated lines. A clean silhouette that presents a well defined, streamlined package is impossible to ignore and with bandage dresses that’s exactly what happens. For the sweetest shapes and compliments, choose fashion that rides your curves like a high performance hotrod – everybody will notice, including that special someone whose attention you have been trying to catch for a while now…

Shoe shapes

Oh my, shoe shapes are really kicking off right now. Whatever happened to dainty pumps and kitten heels? They are long gone in the shoe remainder bin in the sky. Chic shoe shoppers should be on the lookout for footwear that makes its mark – quite literally. Have you seen the size of the chunky monkeys on people’s feet recently? Shoe and boot designs are muscular and strong with blocky heels and solid, cartoon-esque shapes that would keep you upright in a force 10. Lace ups, long musketeer boots, patchwork and chain detailing are all in evidence at shoe central – just pull on a pair of something big, bold and beautiful and you’re bound to get his attention. Just don’t tread on his toes…

Zoo you 

Yeah, it had to happen – we’re all so crazy about animals we’re wearing pictures of them on our clothes now. It’s official, animal prints are the coolest casual wear to be seen in. Not animal prints as in zebra and tiger stripes and leopard spots – no, we’re talking bigger picture here. We’re talking whole badger, horse, cat, owl and polar bear images on T shirts, tops and knitwear – they are so cute, but a little bit edgy, too. Team a quirky, toothsome, cute-some kitten print with a pair of stompy boots and you’ve got yourself a style juxtaposition to jar the feistiest fashionista. Have you got your pet picture print ensemble sorted yet? Soon as you do, people gonna start noticing…

Juicy jumpsuits

If you haven’t already jumped onto the jumpsuit bandwagon – get moving. This bold and beautiful fashion staple has been re-invented in a million new styles to give you the best in versatility. With a chic-rating that’s scraping the stars, a jumpsuit in any fabric or style sets you apart from the crowd as something special. Whether it’s a soft, silky jumpsuit with wide pants and soft undulating folds that drape over your form, or a tight, ready for action flying-suit that clings; this style is taking off. The jumpsuit can be interpreted in many ways, up top it can be strapless or tailored and down below lines can be fluid or skin tight. Feeling floaty and feminine? There’s a jumpsuit for that. Or perhaps you’re in the mood for breaking out on the dance floor? There’s a jumpsuit style for that, too. Pull one on now and wait for the compliments to start heading your way….

High score skater

Once thought to be a flash in the fashion pan, the skater dress is beginning to look like a stayer. There are no signs women are tiring of this style, if anything, it’s becoming more popular.

Why? It’s a no brainer – because it’s a feminine style that flatters, is versatile and simply stunning. The combination of a fitted bodice teamed with a softly flowing skirt that skims the knees is something that brings out the gorgeous in every girl. It’s a winner – and the skater dress looks set to continue it’s successful streak for some time to come. When you source the perfect skater dress, it’s a bit like finding a new best friend, because it makes you smile, lifts your mood and makes you feel great. Doesn’t that sound like the most amazing garment going?
