The flare skirt has been trending for a while now and almost every fashion house has had them on showcase and on the runway. The flare skirt can be rocked in various ways whether you want to go for the sportier look or you prefer a more lady like appearance. Looking good in a flared skirt is all about choosing the right fit and flare for your body type. Make sure the fitted side of your skirt is not too tight ( this is usually almost the band ). The flared skirt requires heels to give a more elongated and chic look, so always pair with fabulous heels to give the perfect effect.

Flared skirt can be accessorized with belts and they can be worn almost any where from work, to church and also dinner or when you’re having fun with your pals.

Tips for choosing the perfect wedding dress

Image
1. Apple Shaped Avoid trumpet style dresses because they enhance the widest area of your body, look for a dress that appraises the smallest point on the waist line, a good bodice that is close-fitting and would create a camouflage effect and a deep V neckline would draw eyes to the upper part of your body. 2. Small Chested The right bra is paramount for the small chested lady as it would provide the necessary boost needed. Extra fabric at the top would help fill out the upper body, also lightly padded halter neck are effective. 3. Busty Bustiers with a full skirt starting from below the waistline downwards are perfect, Also a dress with a scooped neckline would enhance your face. Strapless gowns are awesome, choose the ones with a sweetheart neckline rather than the one that just goes straight across. 4. Pear Shaped For ladies with a pear shape, a classic A-line silhouette is perfect. Go down for a skirt that gradually flares out from the waist to the floor highl

Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez are over as she files for divorce

Image
Halle ‘The Body’ Berry has called it quits with her French husband Olivier Martinez after just two years of marriage. Well, I say “just” – it probably works out as fifty years in Hollyweird, but what do I know? The 49-year-old actress was the one who filed for divorce, and while the public statement would suggest that there is no going back on this decision, she is quoted as having said that the marriage had simply run its course and it was not an acrimonious split. The couple have a 2-year-old son by the name of Maceo , so here’s hoping that all that is left to sort out is a mature understanding of how best to look after the child as opposed to the circus that happened with her daughter Nahla after her split with Gabriel Aubry. Martinez and Berry said in a joint statement to the media: It is with a heavy heart that we have come to the decision to divorce. We move forward with love and respect for one another and the shared focus of what is best for our son. We wi

Yes you haven’t seen me in any film but it is not my doing. I read at least three or four scripts a week for the past five years. That is to show you how bad it is. I am very careful when it comes to what I take part in.” She added that the quality of scripts in Nollywood has fallen, as they are not as challenging as before. “If I don’t get a good script, I am not going on set. I haven’t seen anything worth
