Q: I wanted to know a pretty but not too over-the-top way to incorporate ruffles into my wardrobe. I saw so many references to ruffles in magazines, and I love the look, but I'm not sure how to put it together, please help! Thank you!
A: I have never really incorporated ruffles into my own look before! I looked around and I have found that I too want to incorporate this pretty trend into my wardrobe! I came up with these tips:
How To Wear Ruffles
1. Maintain Balance
For those who worry that their body type or ‘problem area’ is not suited to wearing ruffles, the answer is balance. Ruffles add volume. So, if you have large breasts, don’t wear tiered ruffles over them. Balance is the key, because adding ruffles to a problem area will only draw negative attention to that area!
2. Moderation
Ruffles are an accent. Like an accessory, don't over do it!
3. Muted Accessories
When wearing ruffles, be very select with the accessories you choose! I would opt perhaps with a small bracelet, the ruffles should be your main focus in the outfit, not the accessories!
