How To Choose A Blouse Dress

Now, we're going to talk about how to choose a blouse dress. A blouse dress is when the top half looks like a blouse and the bottom half looks like a skirt and from afar, it actually looks as though you are wearing a blouse and a skirt. It's great for work wear and normally, the top half is lighter than the bottom half.




You can get different styles for the bottom half, for the skirt, but usually it is more of the straight pencil skirt. Now this blouse dress is good for the pear-shaped because it's dark on the bottom and light on the top, so it brings all the attention up here. But if you are larger busted, you may want to go for a blouse dress that is darker on the top and has more detail on the bottom.



This is great for the woman who has broad shoulders and small hips, because it draws down the attention to the patterned skirt. Some of the blouse dresses do come with belts. Now, the belt is good if you have a tiny waist, but if you don't have a tiny waist, it will draw more attention here and so choose a blouse dress without the belt.



And actually blouse dresses are better than blouses and skirts because there is less tightness here, so if you don't have a waist or you have a large tummy, then a blouse dress is probably a better alternative to wearing a blouse and a skirt. And that's how to choose a blouse dress.
