Style Trends: The Little Dress….Do You Know Which One Fits Your Body Type?

Spring Fashions for 2009 are showing up in the stores and it looks like a little dress is going to be one wardrobe staple you’ll need to look updated! That being said, it can be hard to find a dress that really looks great on us after 40, when our tummies area tends to be a little thicker and harder to fit.

We like to visit Nordstrom’s website, because you can browse styles according to your body type.

Here are a few good dresses we found that are age appropriate, and will suit your particular shape. We actually found that some dresses looked good on several types…so here are a few that will flatter most of you!

Straight: This Maggy London stretch print dress would go great from work with some heels to even weekend casual with some flats.

Pear Shape:If you are bigger on the bottom than top, this red wrap dress will sure flatter your figure!

Apple: If you are more rounded in the middle, it is tricky to find a great dress, but most apples have great legs, so this is an easy way to show them off!
