New York & Company has me doing a double take.

They’ve got a revenge body and they’re showing it off. For years they were the go-to place for office outfit staples, but they’ve changed here in the last couple years. Now they’re more of a Sunday – Saturday destination. They have beautiful dress-up options for Sundays, basics to get you through the week and cool athleisure items for Saturdays.

I’ve been dipping more into the dress up options (like this magnificent skirt) and wanted to showcase all that they have for your Easter Sunday look… Which (PS) was way more than this, but it’s all I could fit in a page!

If you’re not all over the floral trend but like it a little…this maxi with stripes is the way to go. It would accentuate a straight up and down body type with the extra oomph at the waist with the tie and criss cross detail at the bust.

Of course if you’re going to do floral, Easter (aka: Spring’s debutante ball) is the time to do it. The sheer panel bell sleeves on this dress will help disguise larger arms.

Or if simple is your thing, and you’re more of an inverted triangle shape – this dress with the floral detailing on the bottom will help balance your figure and draw the eye down. Plus the pleating is fantastic!

Looking to carve out a waist or highlight your hour glass shape? This pink sheath dress with lace details in the middle is the boss of that, so get it girl!

And wow, is this pattern beautiful! I love the colors! I also love that it has an overlay that will flow so nicely as you walk. This is perfect for hiding hips and a bum – it will all just flow right over it.

White Hot Pants That Won’t Show Your Business

We all know the problem with white pants – they can get a little too “show and tell” *ifyaknowhatimean.

We want to look cool and crisp in their clean bright effortlessness, but we certainly don’t want our backside and Hello Kitty underwear on full display.

Thankfully, it’s possible to have great white pants without having to leave a room walking backwards. I’ve gathered four options from stores in West Town Mall to show you the different cuts and brands that give you comfortable coverage without cutting out the cute.

Ann Taylor: These are actually eyelet pants, so they’ve got a great texture to them which will help mask any imperfections and panty lines. I also really like their relaxed look!

The Limited: For a more jean-like feel, go for these. With a skinnier silhouette they’ll play perfectly against billowy tops (or kimonos!).

New York & Co.: A long white pant is probably my favorite, and I can personally vouch for the greatness of New York & Company’s white pants. These would work in both the office and after hours with their slack-like shape. The material is heavy enough to give you coverage, but light enough to keep you cool.

White House Black Market: These are wrinkle resistant! AH! That’s so nice. And they’re the perfect length for showing off your cute summer shoes and pedicure!

If you’ve got your eye on a pair of white pants that aren’t in this list, I strongly advise you to read reviews. You’ll be able to learn a lot about the pants and whether or not to buy your size or not. Especially if you’re buying online, knowing if they run true to size really helps, and most of the time people leave that in the reviews.
