This weeks Fab Under 50 is all about the Shirt Dress!

Shirt Dresses are back in high demand – in a variety of colors, prints and fabrics there is something for everyone. These dresses are perfect for Summertime and will keep you casual, stylish and most importantly COOL during the hot months.

There are many things that are great about shirt dresses – 2 of them being:

– Versatility – You can dress them down, dress them up and they are suitable for a variety of places – from the office to a night out on the town.

– Looks great on all body types – Thanks to the cut of shirt dresses these dresses look great on virtually all body types (of course fabric plays a huge role in this- so choose whats right for YOU).

2 of my favorite shirt dresses this season are from ASOS.

I don’t know about you guys but I am loving this season’s hair for a few reasons…

I hate to wear my hair down in the Summer time; it’s just too hot for all that! (I find it very gross to have hair sticking to my sweaty face and neck – don’t act like you don’t sweat!!!).

Convenience. What’s quicker than throwing your hair in a ponytail or up-do and dashing out the door??!

When you hair is pulled back from your face it really allows your face to be on display – contoured cheek bones, cat eyes and bright lips for all to see!!

What’s great about these styles is that they aren’t your average slicked back ponytails or boring buns – they all have a new and modern twist that takes the style to a whole new level and add’s that “oomph” to your hair without very much effort or time from spent.

My personal favorite is the high bun – I can see myself wearing my hair like this EVERY DAY this Spring/Summer, especially on those humid days.

Check out this “How to” tutorial – very straight forward and easy (I plan on using it myself to achieve my high bun).

Also try adding a turban or head band to your hair to mix things up or save time when you just don’t feel like doing your hair. 🙂
