Looking truly sexy involves knowing what to bare—and what to keep under wraps. Otherwise, where’s the mystery? “Choose one—only one—body part and show it off,” advises Jen Rade, stylist to Jenna Fischer andAngelina Jolie. “If it’s cleavage, don’t show your legs. If it’s your legs, stay covered on top.”

We’re entering the season of glamour – Christmas parties, festive drinks, big nights out. And while the A-listers are able to call on their style gurus to create the perfect look, we all don’t have that luxury. So we reveal the top tips from Tinseltown’s wardrobe wizards to help you style yourself

Dress for your body type

Getting to know the body type and figure they are working with is one of the first things every expert stylist will do before dressing a star for a big awards bash. In your case, it means getting to know your own body and what works for you.

What do you want your wardrobe to do for your body shape. Decide if you want to look taller? Slimmer? Curvier? Then it’s just a matter of creating the illusion.

The number one rule for looking good, as every celebrity stylist will tell you, is wearing the right size clothing. You wouldn’t catch Cameron Diaz wearing clothes that are too big for her – so wear what fits. If you want to appear slimmer, the worst thing you can do is wear oversized pieces – nothing will make you look bigger quite like baggy clothes!

Mens Rules to Live by When Wearing Black Clothes

If you like to wear black as much as I do, listen up. I have become quite aware of the way different fabrics hold black dye as well as which fabrics and textures look good together. With this in mind,

Why I Love Wool and So Should You

Wools are always a deeper black than cottons (wool holds dye better) which is why when I’m buying black trousers, sweaters and of course suits, I stick to wool. And what’s even better is wool doesn’t fade like cotton does over time

Matching Your Blacks

No matter what the fabric, shades of black differ so be careful when putting an all black outfit together. For example, when pairing a black shirt with black trousers, the black shirt might have a purple cast while your black trousers have a brown cast. These differences are subtle, but important.

The Forever Fashion Rules

Always dress according to both the weather and the occasion. If it’s snowing, wrap up, even if you need to look smart.

A leather shift dress is a blank canvas that you can accessories to fit with pretty much any season.

When wearing open-toe shoes, it’s probably best to leave the hosiery at home.

A matching mani-pedi will help to pull a look together

A camel coat will never go out of style

Stuck for a last-minute, need-to-look-amazing outfit? Pair a white shirt with a pair of black trousers, add red lipstick, and go.

Make a flowing, Grecian-style gown your go-to black tie option. It will never fail to wow

A black blazer will come to the rescue time and time again.

Invest in a Breton T. It will go with everything (including things it shouldn’t, like leopard prints).

When opting for loose on top, go skinny on the bottom, and vice versa.
