Runway Report: Colorful Creations

by Molly Griffin

The runways and retail racks are exploding with bursts of color in blushing pinks, vibrant citrines, and turquoise blues. Mauves and blush pinks are the softer contrast to the bright color immersion making its way into spring fashion trends. Unfortunately, the luxurious fashions gracing the radiant runways of Paris, Milan, and New York are accompanied by a whopping price tag. Well, dolls, it doesn’t have to be that way. Clothes R Us offers an economic alternative to runway style, minus the designer price tags.

Audrey Hepburn

Style Icon: Audrey Hepburn

Audrey Hepburn was one of the biggest style icons of the 20th century. She made everything sexy with not showing any skin. Let’s look back to a time when tanning was an unspeakable and everything was about manners. Audrey Hepburn showed up in the beginning of Breakfast at Tiffany’s in this classic black dress and created a frenzy. Everyone wanted to look like that from then on. So, how can you give a modern flare to it? Well, my choice is the sexy black dress in Missy.   This dress gives a modern flare to a classic, with the addition of the tiered style to create the ultimate slimming effect.  Pair this with Audrey’s favorite pearls and you are ready for any party to be the center of the room.

That 70’s Look – Pleats and Tiers

0

by Cherrys Gavini

One of the hottest Spring-Summer looks is the 1970’s vintage fashion.  And this season’s vintage look can be recreated with ClothesRUs Pleats and Tiers.  Remember with any 70’s fashion the focus is on the waist.  So whether you are wearing a pleated shirt or a tiered dress, always draw attention to your waist.  The beautiful thing with pleated and tiered clothes clothing is that it is very forgiving with our mid section.  So this waist focus can be brought about by a wide belt scrunching your dress or your blouse accentuating your waist and camouflaging the rest with the pleats and tiers.

You can pull this look together with our Plus Size Earth Tone Swirl Blouse With Front Pleats.  And pair it up with some wide legged jeans and a few buttons undone giving off that sexy ‘70’s vibe, much like Selma Hayek’s pleated ensemble.
