Whether you're a curvy woman or a woman who wishes she had more curves, you will love me for this small trick that will make a big difference in your shape.
Take a look at this picture of Kate Winslet on the red carpet at the Venice Film Festival...
When I first saw this picture of Kate in that Stella McCartney number, I thought, "No way! Her waist is TEENY tiny! That has to be Photoshopped..." Alas, it is not! Take another look. Kate has a bod men drool over and women envy anyway, but her secret's in the fabric. Thanks to strategic placement of colorblock panels, every curve is highlighted in the best way. It's one of the oldest tricks for stylists - using dark panels on the sides creates the illusion of the perfect hourglass figure. It's along the same lines as using a belt to cinch your waist, but it's not quite as obvious and can work in a more formal setting. And this girl is all for getting a bod like Kate's without stressing myself at the gym!
Check out some of these colorblock options to get the same effect for less, including one that's just like Kate's for only $78!

Look Twice It's NOT Missoni (But It IS Under $25)
I know thousands of women across the country are waiting impatiently (like me) for the Missoni for Target stock to be refilled. I don't have a date for when the marvelous zigzag patterns will be replenished, but I DO have an alternative for you.
While perusing Forever21 for my Celeb Steals I noticed a similar pattern...a colorful zigzag pattern at that. I didn't think anything of it until this morning when I noticed more than half a dozen different pieces with this same pattern.
Compare these pieces to Missoni, and try telling me you don't see a similarity.
