There are few trends that never grow old for me and among those few the one-shoulder dress reigns supreme.
My two favorite incarnations are the very Grecian (top right) and the leggy thick-belted variety (bottom left).
The bold blue-purple dress Blake Lively is wearing (word on the street in Lafayette is that bold blue will continue to be hot into the fall) is perfection with a super thick belt. Nothing beats a slick black patent belt cinching a bold hue. Classic pointy black pumps are always a great finish for the feet.
The white Romanesque ensemble Maria Bello is rocking is another simple yet bold take on the one-shoulder. To pull off the Grecian look from head to toe try the following elements:
Soft swept back hair
A dress that hits below the knee
Gladiator sandals
A soft color inspired by nature or white or ivory
Fabrics that drape or flow (silk, satin, chiffon or a super thin jersey)
Thick and bold cuff bracelets
FYI: Belle Amie has several one shoulder dresses right now that can go casual with flat gladiators and into the night with heels and a clutch.
