Though ladies of all ages and builts are innately beautiful and unique, girls and women of diminutive bodily dimensions do have it tough when trying to put together a tasteful outfit. If you’re one of the petite ladies trying to come up with creative girly clothing combinations for every occasion, we have several useful tips on how to make most of your wardrobe to a highly flattering effect.

Simplicity is the key: Few accessories and monochromatic styles

One time-tested trick most fashionable petite ladies observe, simplicity is essential when trying to avoid the garish, messed-up look. For a polished and straightforward girl-style outfit that makes eyes go up and down your figure in admiration, go with monochromatic skirts and dresses that make your legs look longer and your silhouette sleek and taller than it actually is. Similarly, a sophisticated, simple necklace worn with a wide neck shirt or dress will draw the attention upwards and emphasize your neckline instead of your petite anatomy.

Shapes and patterns: Mix prints and stripes to your advantage

Ladies, if you’re going to Cheltenham Festival in March, you’re going to want to prepare what to wear. Fancy frocks and designer clothing are not as much of a focus as they are at other racing events - probably due to the time of year - but that’s not to mean you shouldn’t dress to impress. Our little guide will help you out, so you’ll be certain not make any feared fashion faux pas’.

Wednesday is Ladies Day, and that’s the day to get properly dolled up; the press go mad for it! Flaunt your finest, and make an entrance as if you were walking down the red carpet. Going too OTT will make it seem like you’ve tried too hard though, and whilst hats and fascinators are a must, we’d suggest avoiding insane head gear like Princess Beatrice’s Royal Wedding sci-fi hat. You want to look fabulous, not divide opinions.

As for the other days, the weather really dictates what to wear. Let’s start off by confirming that tweed is not just for the gents. You can get lovely fitted blazers and jackets in a variety of prints and colours, in which case, a simple blouse with skinny trousers or a pencil skirt would suffice. If you can get hold of a tweed dress then you’re onto a winner, though a herringbone pattern could be a bit more feminine and flattering.

Glen Maxwell shows maximum taste with these sunglasses in the IPL 2014 as he threw a massive throw and incredibly took off the stumps ! you can watch the whole match again here or look at 1hr:10s here.They look like Oakley radarlocks.

I have tried to catch as much as I can of the 2014 IPL which for me is the format that will be the saviour of the sport of cricket. t20 is more exciting and it May have been a week more before I write now but I just feel compelled AGAIN by David Miller shoring up an amazing run chase as the Kings 11 face the Rajastan Royals. Of course those that know know that the man doing the business is also Glenn Maxwell. He has made some amazing shots in the teams chasing KKR and today RR for big totals. Single handedly Maxwell was doing enough (a load) but as in this format you go for it risk takes its natural course and a fine 5 I think was as much as he got. An amazing total given the bowling was good despite the shorter boundaries here in Abu Dhabi.

Yes they have brought cricket to Arabia another signal that this is a tournaent that does matter. You might also like the cplt20 when the caribeans do the same format in their style. It's not as big yet but I dont doubt it will become massive too. So the kings 11 punjab are looking like an amazing team. The scourge of the saffers and pomes is the bowling of Mitchell Johnson today he could do nothing with the equally absorbing talent of the young 19 year old royal called Samson, this is the guy that gave the again large total to be chased. I feel for the kings 11 and that they may deserve the odd game where they can have a break and chase just 145 or so...this they might bring up with 5 overs to spare - it begs the question what do you need to score to beat them ? Watson had a good innings finally after 2 lucky early escapes as Miller dropped him ! Such is a good few hours spent enjoying this tournament.

David Miller just pipped Glenn Maxwell to the yes bank maximum sixes aware as they both had 6 of them this game (one over had 3 for Miller !!!) but Miller had the longest. Maybe this seemed harsh on Maxwell as David also earned the kanna keep calm award immediately as he had still a big run rate to chase around 12 with few overs remamining. In the end he made it look easy but with the No 1 batsman not finding the middle for the kings 11 it was a tall order. He did it. I would say single handedly he led them to victory but Glenn Maxwell deserves a lot of the credit if not more for getting them into an unlikely winning position again. I think we will have to go a long way to see a game so good again in this tournament. And kings 11 gave us already 2 of the best so far. Note that Glenn made man of the match to no surprise. Watch this team !
