There has been a trend for the brides to wear strapless gowns on their wedding day. This has been going on for a number of years now, and I must say –it’s kind of boring for me to attend a wedding nowadays because I am almost sure that the bride will have a strapless gown.

I have nothing against the strapless gowns and dresses, but unfortunately not every woman looks good in a strapless gown; but then how many of us understand this? Some young ladies walk down the aisles almost half naked, courtesy of the strapless gowns. Thanks to the fashion evolution, designers have redesigned the bolero jackets to help women wear the strapless gowns and dress so that they not only can be as decent as possible but fashionable as well. 

A bolero is a short and small jacket which normally features rounded front corners. A bolero can come with long fitted sleeves, rounded capped sleeves, puffed sleeves or short sleeves. Bolero jackets are a rising trend in the fashion world today because of their versatility and wide range of styles that make them a useful addition to any wardrobe.

The good thing with the bolero jackets is that they flatter any figure, showing the waist to its best advantage. They provide an air of effortless class, while still being fun. Whether you are going to the office or a morning walking down the aisle, there is a bolero jacket that is perfect for every occasion. The bolero jackets come in different styles, others come just below elbow or three-quarter sleeves.

For the stunning look for a bride who is looking for a bolero jacket to add to her sleeveless gown; the Edwardian bolero style should be the ultimate choice with a cut that is flattering to the neckline.

Every fashionista knows that dressing up does not just mean choosing the appropriate dress. Different accessories, shoes and jackets are also important because they are the ones that make one look stylish and trendy. 

A bolero jacket might be a small piece of cloth, but without any doubt a smart and timeless addition to any well-rounded wardrobe. In addition to being functional pieces they also help when its gets chilly at any time of the day. Another advantage with owning the boleros is that you can wear the same jacket with many different outfits.  But for the sake of changing, one should consider buying two or three boleros of different colours. Boleros can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion and the mood of the wearer.

Adding different features to your bolero jacket, like feathers or tassels is always an option you can consider, but one must bear in mind that these embellishments are not appropriate for every occasion like the office.

The best thing about bolero jackets is that there is no woman who doesn’t look good wearing them. They show off your waist and even overweight women look amazing.  Bolero jackets come in different materials; for official wear cotton boleros look just fine, linen and wool boleros are good for a night out. Whatever your style is, a bolero jacket is a must have accessory which will add value and statement to your dressing.
