Business in the back.... Party in the front! How to wear this seasons hottest trend: The Hi Lo Dress

Highly trendy, the hi-lo dress can be seen making the rounds in recent red carpet events as well as in runways around the world. What is a hilo (or High-Low!) dress? It’s a gown that combines the best features of two different dress styles into one. A hi-lo dress has a short front hemline, usually falling just above the knee (though other more daring style can go up to the middle part of the thighs), while its back hemline falls to the floor.They are popular because they allow you to show off your legs while still enjoying ample amounts of coverage. You can dress it up or go casual.  Here are a few tips to help you decide how to wear your hi lo dress.

1.) Toughen up a pretty pleated  hi lo skirt with darker separates — a biker-chick leather jacket should do the trick.


2.)  Wear girlier embellishments — studded heels, a sparkly clutch, bright baubles, and a cream-hued beaded top lighten up the look with a feminine feel.


 3.) For a laid-back take, style your asymmetrical-hem skirt or dress with loose basics and layered necklaces.


4.) For fall/winter pair with an off the shoulder sweater, a cute skinny belt, boots and add a trendy necklace.
