5 Steps to Dressing Like a Diva – Part 1
May, 19, 2008
Posted byThe term “Diva” has traditionally been utilized to describe celebrities, both their appearance and their “higher than life” attitude. But anyone can be a Diva, not necessarily meaning that you force someone to sort out the colors of M&M’s because you only want to eat the red ones, but the powerful attitude that accompanies these women in regards to their appearance. Here are the main 5 steps to dressing like a Diva:
1. The Top: If you’re wearing a dress, you’ve just eliminated a step in the process of Diva Dressing, as #2 and #3 are combined for you. “Tight” and “Low-cut” are two words traditionally associated with our term, but this isn’t always the case. The painted on items of clothing that these women wear is sometimes created just for them and/sewn for this purpose (sometimes sewn directly onto them). One word that can describe the top of choice of nearly all Diva’s is “seductive”. But this term typically means something completely different to everyone, for it’s more of a subconscious feeling than an actual description. The color and the style can vary immensely, but the bottom line is this: Nothing has the same affect on everyone. To be safe, a solid color top works best. Red is a power color that grabs attention, while black is considered mysterious. White triggers thoughts of purity (and is why so many Diva’s don’t wear it a lot, as they usually get ridiculed by the press). Purple is a color of royalty, while pink in all of it’s wondrous shades is considered to be very feminine. Blue can make onlookers feel depressed or saddened. Green makes people think of hospitals. But no color will look Divaesque if the top chosen is completely wrong for your body shape. Be open to many different style options, as no Diva would go out looking like a fool.
