Hi, I'm celebrity fashion stylist, Tod Hallman. Today, we are going to find the little black dress that highlights Angelina's athletic shape and plays up on her fun, flirty style. Angelina has an athletic frame. She has broader shoulders, narrow hips and minimal curves. Celebs like Cameron Diaz and Jada Pinkett Smith have shapely athletic figures, and Angelina falls into this camp. Are you ready to go shopping? You know I am. Let's do it, girl. So, I think we've found a great classic black dress for Angelina. Let's take a look. So, ladies, I chose this black dress for Angelina because she has a beautiful athletic body physique. I love the elastic waist because it pulls it in. But then it's got the fun, flirty party skirt. But then underneath there's this longer tier that just gives it some definition and helps to break up the look. I love that it's one shoulder because she's beautifully toned. Jewelry, we went with just a big chunky bracelet because sometimes less is more. You don't need to do a lot. Don't overdress, don't over think it. Clean, simple hoop earring and a great print shoe to break it up. So, what do you think? I love that it's not the typical knit dress that I usually wear; you know, that hugs all the curves. But this still accomplishes exactly that. Yeah because it still shows your body and you look sexy and feminine. Thank you. Perfect. I think we have a winner. My tips to you, if you have a beautifully athletic toned body, show it. Don't be afraid. Show your arms like Angelina. The one shoulder neck is gorgeous. Cinch in the waist. Show your waist. And yes, this is a fuller party skirt, but it still shows how toned and beautiful she is. Trendshaping is about knowing your body and understanding the trends to get a style tailored just for you. Until next time, I'm celebrity fashion stylist, Tod Hallman.
