Silver has made its come back!  Until recently people did not wear much silver.  Designer tended to design more garments in gold but over the last few years, silver has exploded on the scene of fashion!  Silver is not the easiest color to wear.  People with darker complexions and darker hair generally look better in shades of silver.  Lea Michele looks absolutely stunning in this platinum couture gown by Marchesa.  And with designers like Marchesa making creations in deeper shades of silver, they are making it easier for all types of skin tones to wear.

A great way to introduce silver in your wardrobe is to pair it with another color.  Silver can wash most people out, so wear a dark colored blouse near your face and pair it with a silver skirt.  Or when wearing a silver cocktail dress, wear a vibrant necklace to break up the silver from your face.  The key is to wear a darker color near your face so you don’t look washed out.

Silver is always a fun accessory!  Ring in the New Year with an emerald green gown and silver accessories.  A pewter purse, jewelry and shoes are always a fun statement and it’s a good way to incorporate silver into your everyday fashion.   Don’t forget your makeup is also an accessory!  A smoky eye always compliments silver clothing and if you really want to stand out, do a radiant red lip to steal the show!  In my opinion, silver is only becoming more popular and fashion forward.  Even if you are not walking the red carpet like Lea Michele, be sure to incorporate silver into your wardrobe because silver is here to stay!

Classic Silhouette: The Mermaid Gown

Prom 2010 wouldn’t be complete without a variety of gorgeous mermaid gowns to choose from.  This show-stopping look is featured this season in a variety of fabrics from soft chiffons to crisp taffetas and bold satin prints.  Pick your favorite and arrive on prom night in style!
Paris Prom Dress 110537 is a hot number for prom in eye-catching fuchsia chiffon!  This mermaid gown has a beaded halter strap and beaded detail under a generously sequined sweetheart bust.  This delicate fabric is ruched all the way down to just above the knee where the dress flares out in a full mermaid skirt of flowing chiffon.  Stunning and chic; this gown is great pick for prom!Jovani Prom Dress 152060 takes the classic mermaid shape and gives it a unique punch with a daring rose print and sequin accents.  This satin gown has a slight split v-neck and drop waist highlighted by a black sash and beading.  In either a delightful coral or a hot red, the floral print pops in black and takes this mermaid gown away from classic elegance and forward into cutting edge fashion!

Clarisse Prom Dress 1379 is a mermaid gown with a more timeless look.  With a definite sophistication, and just the right touch of embellishment, this dress will flatter any girl on a prom night.  The slight sweetheart neckline is complimented by fine beading under the bust and is featured again on the small train in the back.  This sleek taffeta gown is the prefect pick for the girl who wants a stunning silhouette without a lot of fuss!

Mori Lee Prom Dress 8408 is another stylish but clean mermaid look.  Sequins are playfully scattered across the bodice and down along the ruched drop waist.  Taffeta is wrapped from under the bust to just above the knee in a criss-cross pattern for a truly flattering shape.  The mermaid skirt flares out just enough to give dancing at prom the perfect spin!

Dress up the mermaid silhouette with a bold print, or tone it down with just a touch of beads or sequins.  Keep it delicate in silky chiffon or sleek in lustrous taffeta.
