Heard of a cold shoulder? In case you didn’t get the memo, they’re in vogue and we are totally loving it. There is something about one shoulder, fitted dresses that you just cannot describe. The elegance, the modern touch, some vintage feels – you name it. If you’re going for a one-shoulder dress, make sure you pick one which is right for your silhouette. If you are blessed with a thin frame, we’d suggest picking a body-hugging, fitted dress to accentuate your waist. Pick dark-colored heels to go with your festive cocktail dress and slick your hair back to finish the ensemble with panache.
