  1. A-line Skirt: No matter what your body shape, the cut of this skirt will work. It creates a flattering figure by defining the waistline and flaring out subtly from the hip. 
  2. Blouses: Not men’s style button-front cotton shirts, but blouses! Feminine neck-lines take a boring business suit in a more modern direction or paired with a cardigan and jean can update the stay-at-home mom.
  3. Cardigan: Great for layering, and sometimes more appropriate for a softer, more casual look than a jacket.
  4. Cocktail Dress: This must be a fits-to-perfection knockout; the one you know you look great in period! Have it hanging in your closet, perfectly tailored and ready to go when the opportunity to wear it presents itself.
  5. Fitted Jacket: A structured jacket – that nips in at the waist - gives you a waistline and some body shape. It can turn a t-shirt and jeans into an “outfit” and help complete a look. 
  6. Your Perfect Pair of Jeans: Forget what’s trendy and find the cut that’s perfect for your body type. The most universally flattering shape is a straight leg or small boot-cut with a mid rise. Go for a uniform dark wash!
  7. High Heels: There are comfortable high heels out there and every woman should own at least one pair. They turn day outfits into nighttime ones. You’ll stand straighter, and look longer and leaner!
  8. Pencil Skirt: Pencil skirts can flatter almost any body shape. It balances the body line while showing off your curves.  A must have!
  9. Trench Coat: The trench is a timeless piece that will take you from season to season. While classic in     style, it’s a modern day staple for years to come.
  10. Wrap Dress: In a cotton jersey or micro-fiber, this dress will be your best friend! Look for a dress that wraps at the smallest part of your waistline for the most flattering shape.
