Question : I was unexpectedly hit by His family ’ s invitation to their annual relatives ’ gettogether . I have never met his family before . It will take place in a restaurant away from the city and we will be seated outside . I want to look as “ appropriate ” as possible and avoid any deep screening looks . Help !
Answer : Wear something that shows your true fashion sense , but also make sure to err on the conservative side . No parent is going to be impressed by a super short hemline . Dress to flatter your figure and wear something you love — when you feel best , you tend to look best too . We would recommend pairing a modest blouse with a feminine skirt . Think classy and comfortable , but still fashionable . Go with Keen Fashion ’ s modest blouse in sweet pink and a feminine black polka dot skirt . Wear black ballerinas ( Keen Fashion ) and accessorize very minimal . And as the final touch , keep your make - up simple . You don ’ t want his family to be distracted from your personality because your smoky eye shadow or hoop earrings are stealing the show .
Question : My boyfriend ’ s parents have a house in the seaside and they have invited me over for the first time . I want to decide on a beach dress , however , floor-length is not really my best length for a dress . I want to avoid looking sexy because his family , I know , is quite conservative . Any tips ?
Answer : Tone the look down with flower print summer dress and wear a brown thin leather belt with a dress , to make the look simpler . Try Keen Fashion ’ s red flower print dress , which comes already with a belt . For the evening you might want to cover your shoulders with a cardigan . Go with Keen Fashion ’ s blue cardigan with front buttons . And don ’ t even doubt about the flip-flops ! That ’ s all you need !
