For the Hippies

Sep 26th, 2007 | By Irie Diva | Category: Style Talk

No not hippies meaning bohemian, sixties inspired fashion but for the sistas out there with more hips than me. Firstly let me say hmph! Beg you some nuh!!! Anyway time for another style me please. You’ll love this one as it features a local boutique as well so you can actually pop in and pick up the items suggested.

Well Yamfoot I’ve gushed about the wrap top before but now I’ll gush about the wrap dress because its PERFECT for hippies. The wrap dress will accentuate a your bosom area for one, with its deep v-neck styles, drawing away attention from your hips. Also a wrap dress is either A-line which flares oh so sexily from your hip area and gently sways as you walk or its straight but since its a wrap dress it conforms to your natural shape and will give the waist area great definition.

Well you know how I always talk about Fashion 911 ? Well guess who has some gorgeous wrap dresses! View the pics I took at the store today below, I fell in love with the blue and yellow one, and it wasn’t even bank breaking! See thats why I love this store. That rose pink top is calling out to me as well. Fashion 911 is located at 16 Windsor Avenue, off Old Hope Road, Kingston 6. Call Nichole at (876) 9278937 and tell her you saw it on FOS, she might give you a nice lil discount ;-)

They have some great wrap tops as well. Longer tops will cover hips nicely and the shorter ones flare off accentuating those hips, cus come on now with great hips you’re not gonna hide them 24/7! Make sure to wear them with pants that have a boot cut. Hippies do not want to be seen in pencil jeans or straight pants. The subtle flare of a boot cut will balance wider hips.

  1. Niiiiice.
    I not too clueless then because I have a couple wrap tops…..and one of them I am going to wear this Friday night…Wooooieeee. Sorry for Mr Hot Wuk!

    And I just bought a brown and beige wrap dress from JC Penney. Just trying to get the belly to go down a bit so it won’t jiggle.

    I dont normally shop in stores so have never heard of this. Will check it out. I pass Windsor on my way to the gym so when I go back to Jamrock in Oct I will give them a look up. I envisage I will have many hot dates coming up so will need to increase the very limited wardrobe.
    Tks for the advice!
