Picking out formal dresses is not an easy task. I mean, where do you start? Do you want the halter dress cut? Then for heaven’s sake, little missy, don’t wear spaghetti straps! Perhaps you are a traditionalist and now prefer the classy look of a full-length lace gown. Today, while most of us consider purchasing new clothes to be a simple process, even if we only buy new garments once a year, formal dresses can’t be taken lightly.

In this post, I will give you some tips on how to pick the best one.

Know the type of occasion

When it comes to choosing what to wear, figuring out what’s appropriate is head-scratching and stressful. I’ve always struggled with this when it came to formal events. The moment I receive an invitation, the first thing I do is carefully read it over several times to decipher any clues about the formality and location of the event. Once you know that, it makes the process so much easier.

Have you ever been looking for red formal dresses online and just couldn’t find anything? Trying to find the perfect dress can be challenging. Like a family reunion at the park or a 50th wedding anniversary party at the church, a less formal event requires more casual attire, so save the formal for another occasion.

Choose your style

Veils, trains, mermaid cuts, A-line silhouettes, and fit-and-flare styles – oh my! The evening dress is unlike any other garment, designed specifically to make the most of your body while highlighting your most flattering features. One of the most exciting days of your life deserves a special gown, so you’ll want to invest in something that will look amazing in photographs and feel comfortable for you throughout the entire event.

The formal event is only two hours long, and you can’t change your dress during that time, right? Wrong! Evening dresses for formal events, i.e., cocktail dresses and gowns, can be divided into long and short. You may seem boring or dated if you go to a formal party in a basic or classic dress. And that’s not very pleasant to the eye! On the other hand, if you wear some kind of bizarre outfit with strange patterns or colors, you will definitely look weird at a formal event.

Fabric

Fabric is the main determinant of the type of dresses that would flatter you. If you are someone who wants a dress for an official ceremony like a wedding, then silk or organza would be best. Organza has the advantage of being lighter than silk and thus cooler to wear. But keep in mind that silk is extremely soft, and it drapes well on the body.

The first thing to look for when choosing formal dresses is the fabric. If you’re an elegant and classy girl, satin and lace are excellent choices, but they can be a bit show-stopping. Tulle and silk are softer fabrics and will draw less attention to your figure.

We’ve all heard how changing your pillowcase daily helps fight acne, illnesses and allergies, but seriously, how many people will take the time to do that? The current pillowcases are inconvenient which results in people spending approximately one-third of their lives sleeping on not so clean pillowcase which are a haven for dust mites, bed bugs, fungus, dirt, oil, bacteria and more.  FaceSecret makes it easy. FaceSecret is the ONLY fitted, slipover, drawstring and one size fits most pillowcase.  FaceSecret is extremely easy to apply and does not slip off in the night like conventional pillowcases.

Available in two different materials – Satin-Polyester (available in pink, grey and white) and Jersey Cotton (available in grey and white), the FaceSecret pillowcase uses quarter inch woven elastic meaning that it won’t snap  – and has its elastic pull-tie drawstring. FaceSecret, with or without an existing pillowcase, ensures a snug fit on the smallest of pillows all the way up to King-size—one size fits most!

Plus, the Satin-Polyester is proven to be essential for the healthy skin and helps with anti-aging (keeps skin smooth on pillowcase and protects delicate areas around face) and to prevent bead head (allows hair to glide rather than tug and damage hair).

For those that travel and like the peace of mind of a clean cover, FaceSecret comes in a travel bag that easily fits into a suitcase.
