The saying that history repeats itself can also be applied to fashion. Past trends shape future fashion all the time, even during spring-summer 2009.

Many of these styles bring comfort to people because they make them think of a more stable time. 

If we go back a little from the seventies then we can see that, as always, the sixties have never really completely gone out of fashion either. Shift dresses are back, both in mini form or presented in the more formal, longer version. This is great news for women who want something simple to throw on for party wear

Popular since the 1960s and still going strong, the shift dress provides the perfect combination of class and sexiness. The shift dress is flattering on most body shapes and works great for showing off long legs.  This is a versatile garment which can be used to quickly create a look with minimal effort; a couple of pieces of jewellery should suffice. 

The Shift Dress is a classic staple piece for every woman's wardrobe. New Look is probably best known for affordable fashion that moves fast, which happily means that once in a while they take a chance on some very retro pieces. These Shift Dresses are a great pair of sixties looks that are affordable and effortless.

 Today, shift dresses come in a variety of updated styles which includes different sleeves and embellishments and are accessorized by wearing them with the now popular opaque tights and heels or slapping a belt over them to define your waist

 The A-line shift dress is a must-have wardrobe staple for this spring and summer. Easy to wear with a silhouette that flatters a wide range of figures, pick up the 2009 shift dress in one of the season's bold, radiant colors like orange, yellow, royal blue or purple.

A-line shift dresses that can be worn over pants and long sleeved full-length dresses are to be in store

A shift dress is a classic piece in itself so. You don't have to accessorize it much, just one piece of statement jewelry at a time whether it be a nickpiece,earrings  or bracelets or handcuffs, just keep it simple and you can beat everyone else's style.

It's Raining!!!! It's Raining!!!! Yes monsoon has just knocked the door, and fear of getting drenched and how can we stay stylish this season too…

The thought of walking out that door with pressed clothes and neat hair is nearly frightful in the wet season. One downpour and your hair is all limp, your clothes are all drenched and your teeth are all clenched. But don't go cursing the dark clouds.

Earlier, people used to dress shabbily during this season. However, with the changing times, fashion lovers have all the opportunity to make themselves look better even in this murky atmosphere.

I personally love this season and I know everyone else too because this season brings back the romance, fun in everyone's life, but some people are afraid of this season as they don't know how to look fashionable this season too and I am not afraid because I know how to keep it stylish in monsoon, and I am here to help all of you to enjoy this season and stay stylish.

You just have to follow five simple tips to look gorgeous, trendy and stylish in this monsoon:-

The first and the most important accessory of this season is umbrella's and raincoats, there is a whole lot range of cute and trendy stuff available in markets now a days, you should always carry them with you in your bag as rain comes anytime without ringing your phone.

 The second important thing is avoid denims, harem pants and all those big and baggy clothes for this season as denims takes a lot of time to get dry and baggy stuff drenches all the rain and gives a wet feeling and also sometimes becomes a peek-a-boo.

Instead, go for hot pants, capris, and skirts and that too knee length skirt or above it.

And if you are a bhartiya naari and don't wear these stuff only wear suits, then don't wear salwars and patialas although you love them as they are also baggy and gives a yuck yuck feeling to you as well as to others, instead wear short length kurtis and churidars.

For an evening or a party wear during the monsoons, go for Lycra chic shirts and pants or even Lycra business suits that are easy to wash too. Avoid wearing layered dresses in the rainy seasons as they only add to the muddle.

Colors for this season can be darker but juicy colors are the best like orange, yellow and aqua.

The third thing to keep in mind is don't wear too much accessories in this season whether you are going in an accessory competition, just wear a cute pair of earrings and a transparent bangle or hand cuff.

Big bags are required to carry your umbrella or raincoat. After all, you would not want to be stranded in the rains without one. Keep your nice suede or velvet bags for other occasions. Stick to plastic during the rains as they require zilch maintenance.

The fourth thing is footwear just lock all your high heels and leather footwear in your wardrobe, as they are a complete no-no this season, instead opt for rubber chappals and flip flops, which are available in market in bulk in classy colors and designs. Ankle length gumboots are also advisable which can go fantastically with western attires.

The fifth and one of the most important things is hair and make-up first step to keep in mind while doing make-up this season is that everything should be waterproof. Eyeliner, kaajal, mascara, lip color etc. everything should be waterproof. Avoid applying any make-up like foundation or rouge. For your hair, it is best to keep a hustle free hairstyle for the rainy seasons so that your hair does not mess in the rains. If you like your hair open then first apply gel on it and always keep a rubber band in your bag too. Use of conditioners should be limited for the monsoon days, as conditioners tend to limp your hair.

Clean your skin regularly with a good cleanser followed by a toning and moisturizing process suitable to your skin type. Wash your face repeatedly to avoid accumulation of dirt, germs or oil on your face

Gone are the days of hiding your figure, wearing those loose and baggy garments. The year 2009 has something different for all those fashion addicts, show your body and flaunt it; you are beautiful after all...

From super skinny pants – topped with printed tunics, to more skinny pants and pencil skirts, a slim silhouette looks just right for Fall 09. When slim trousers are topped with oversized layers on top, belts keep everything from becoming too overwhelming

Finally, fashion experts say it's time to say bye-bye to your baby doll dresses that hide your womanly curves. That's right; to be hip and fashionable this fall you need to stock up on sexy sheath dresses. This season it's all about the hourglass shape of a woman's body and sheath-style dresses display that.

Over-the-top, exaggerated silhouettes have been seen on the runways for fall 2009.  However, the skinny look is still going strong.  Shown as skintight cocktail dresses, skinny pants paired with billowing tops or painted-on blouses that reveal every little imperfection, these looks aren't leaving anything to the imagination.

All the fashionistas agrees that she loves a slim silhouette. Whether it's a body hugging sweater over a skinny pant, or a pencil skirt topped with a belted jacket, this one's always a winner in her book.

Pairing layers of slim fitting separates, such as leggings with a pencil skirt, creates an illusion of being covered while still showing off the female form. Luckily, designers were able to keep the looks fresh and less 1980's inspired, which can be hard to do with a pair of bright leggings.

This look makes you look sexy, beautiful, confident, and comfortable and also sheds that extra kilo away from you.

So metroholicas if being slim is in how can you all stay away from it, go and buy a couple of dresses with slim silhouette and  show everyone how beautiful you are and Be Fashionable….!!!!!!
