 These clothes will make you look slimmer | |
If you aren't aware of the stripes
taboo on clothing... and which
direction makes your body appear
disproportioned, read on!
We've researched the clothes that will
make you look slimmer and come up with
tips and tricks on looks that will
achieve LENGTH in your body.
We'll go over five tips to looking
slimmer in clothing and under each
tip, we'll discuss the various ways to
achieve that particular look.
We know that looking slimmer is
something every woman wants, so we've
done our best to bring the BEST
Hollywood secrets to you.
1. Choose clothing all in one color to
give yourself a long, lean look.
Don't wear blocks of color from head
to toe. For example, if you wear a
white top, black pants, and white
shoes, you are going to appear
"heavier."
Only the thinnest people can get away
with wearing opposite colors from top
to bottom. Choose colors that
coordinate well together but aren't
so drastically different.
A well put together look in one color
paints the picture in someone's mind
that you are a classy, got-it-going-
on woman who knows how to properly
pull an outfit together.
This isn't to say that you can't
infuse color into your outfit, we
would just recommend infusing it by
way of a scarf, a belt or some other
accessory.
2. Wear black. It gives a look that
is especially slimming.
Darker colors are naturally more
slimming. Shop for outfits in darker
shades. They hide unwanted bumps and
bulges... and darker shades usually
make the wearer look considerably
thinner than lighter hues would.
If you wear dark colors with vertical
patterns and stripes and you'll
magically shed unwanted inches.
Darker hues are also classier. They
can be dressed up or dressed down and
darker hues make a person look more
professional or sophisticated- so
long as it is a decent style.
3. Try to avoid shapeless clothing.
No one is fooled, and loose clothes
often make you appear wider or
heavier anyway.
Don't wear clothing that's two sizes
or more too large.
You might think you're covering up
extra weight, but you'll only look
like you're hiding under yards of
material.
Most people don't look as overweight
as they think they do.
There is nothing worse than seeing
someone in a baggy t-shirt with jeans
walking through the mall. The reason
they are wearing it is obvious- they
don't have enough confidence in the
way they look.
What most people don't realize is they
are actually drawing more attention.
People notice well-dressed women and
not-so-well-dressed women. If women
follow the basic principles of style
and wear clothes that actually fit
them- not too tight, not too baggy,
they will actually notice an
improvement in their overall style.
Buy well-fitting clothing and you'll
actually look smaller.
4. Avoid tight clothing that will
emphasize your heavy areas.
Don't wear clothing so tight that you
look melted and poured in. Wearing
clothes that are too tight is not
attractive either, especially if you
are carrying a few extra pounds.
Tight clothing constricts our bodies
from being able to breathe and move
around properly.
When the body is put into a body cast
of spandex or tight cotton, the
outcome is a horrendous mess.
By wearing tight clothing, you are
showing off those insecure areas
ten-fold to the rest of the world.
5. Steer clear of horizontal stripes,
which make you appear wider, but
consider vertical stripes, which make
you look longer and leaner.
Get rid of clothing with horizontal
stripes. Even the slimmest person will
look portly in outfits bearing
horizontal patterns and stripes.
If you prefer clothing with patterns
and stripes, make sure they run
vertically.
They will give the body a taller and
slimmer appearance. Illusion is a
major key to looking thinner.
Speaking of patterns, avoid clothing
with large patterns.
For some reason clothing designers
create plus size fashions with large
patterns. These patterns are usually
large flower blossoms and geometric
shapes.
They often look garish and tawdry.
Even if you wear plus sizes, don't go
for these unflattering fashions.
If you like flowers and geometric
shapes, look for clothing with smaller
designs. Large gaudy patterns flatter
no one.
It's easy to slim down with your
clothes, just follow a few basic
style rules and wear comfortable
clothing.
Clothes are to women as masks are to
actors. They make us who we are each
day and if slim is what you want to
be, then follow the rules above...
