One pants trend that never seems to go out of style is the wide leg kind.  They are seen on the runways every season, every year by almost all fashion houses and all over Instagram. The wide-leg trousers, however, could be intimidating especially if you consider yourself to be on the “shorter” or "petite" side. Or maybe you are just more used to fitted, skinny silhouettes. The key is “high-rise”. 

I'm going to let you in on a little secret to understand the cost behind coats.  The fabric alone, before any other costs associated with design, pattern making, labor, manufacturing, marketing, etc. runs from $100 to $200 ($25 x yards to $50 x 4 yards). From there, all other costs and margin gets added. 

It doesn't matter if your summer vacation this year doesn't look like previous ones and rather involves lots of staying home and endless zoom meetings. It's always summer somewhere and there always will be summer every year. And that means you want to invest in a clean, cool dress with a ton of versatility that is stylish every year and lasting forever. Here's is 1 simple shirt dress in (at least) 10 different styles to kick you off.  1. Off-the-shoulder The stretchy shoulder straps make it easier for off-the-shoulder, one-shoulder styling. But this shirt dress's neckline and collars alone are made to highlight the natural, slouchy, and sexy off-the-shoulder fit.    2. One-shoulder 3. Buttoned-up A classic. Photo Credit: Share...
