Fashion Finds: Kelly Clarkson's Red Dress


So I asked my friend Lesley over at FashionTribes to give me a few dresses similar to that wonderful red number Kelly Clarkson wore a few days ago at the Tony Bennett concert. Here is what she came up with:
Kelly Clarkson sporting a classy, newly highlighted 'do, full-waisted red dress, and a pretty much nothing in the way of bling or accessories - an interesting, if under-the-radar, style choice. To replicate the look and feel of this fab frock, look for a a plunging V-neck, and go for a dress with a defined self-belted waist: at the natural waist if you're more of a traditional hour-glass shape, or, if you are either low-waisted or have more of a pear-shaped silhouette, choose a higher empire/babydoll waist.
However, don't make the same mistake as Kelly of pairing a red outfit with red shoes. Never, never, never attempt to match red shoes & a red outfit with red. Never. Ever. For some reason, it never works - even if everything were to come from the same exact dye lot. Instead, red outfits look best with shoes in caramel & tan shades for day, and for evening: black or metallic.
