Frills and Thrills!


Frills, ruffles, call them what you will, are back. 

On the catwalk, designer frills looked reminiscent of the trademark hems on a flamenco skirt or a ladylike trim from the 1940’s. The frill for spring 2013 is definitely a more feminine and stylish look that says “I’m on trend AND I’m elegant.”

Can you pull it off?  Here are three things to consider for chic, not cheap, frills:

1     Does it suit your style? This is the perfect trend for feminine Romantics. City Chics can enjoy a single simple, elegant ruffle. Naturals might be able to find a soft, simple T-shirt with a slight ruffle design. Classics can opt for a smart top with a subtle frill design. Dramatics will enjoy a statement frill item of clothing. Creatives can mix and match a variety of frill enhanced items of clothing.  

2     How do I wear it? Softer fabrics will fall softly against curves and stiffer fabrics won’t, so think about what works for your figure

3    How many ruffles and what size? Small figures should choose small to medium frills whilst larger frames can carry larger frills. No frills on your largest areas of your body!

Well done to Malini Hemlani for her hard work in building her Colour Me Beautiful image consulting business!

She recently gave a fashion presentation at the Shenzhen Indian Women’s Association across the border in Shenzhen. 

She presented Colour Me Beautiful’s Spring 2013 Style Update, which shows the top trends in colour and style this season, teaching women how to dress appropriately according to their own unique colourings and lifestyles. 

Malini tailored it to suit the needs of her audience, focusing on Indian beauty and colouring. The turnout was great! 

Along with different makeup artists, Malini has plans to sponsor the upcoming Mother’s Day luncheon for the Australian International School, hosted by the Parents Association. She will be offering free smokey eye lessons along with gift bags and vouchers for her consultations. The event will be held at the Holiday Inn on the 10th of May from 11:30 am to 2:30 pm.  

For more information on the event, contact Malini at malini@colourmebeautiful.hk. Reach all of our Colour Me Beautiful consultants at our Find a Consultant page on our website.
