Dresses

Valerie is comfortable in dresses, ranging from maxis to minis and sexy thigh-high slit dresses, she sure knows how to make stylish selections and dresses up with block or stiletto heels and sometimes boots to elevate her style. For a slenderizing silhouette she layers dresses with blazers, jackets, cardigans or belts this shrinks the appearance of her midsection.
