Forget the diet, just change how you dress
Yes, it’s
that time of year again. Christmas is over and the diet adverts are on
television and not forgetting the ‘celebrities’ flogging their fitness DVD’s.
You will hear how they lost 3 stone just following the exercises shown on the
DVD. Don’t be fooled by quick fix diets either. The bottom line is changing
your lifestyle – exercise and eating healthy is the only way you will lose
weight and keep it off. Nothing happens over night!
We are our worst enemies when it
comes to our bodies. Never satisfied with what we have. Even women who have had
cosmetic surgery want to have more. The Botox,
the fillers – the non-invasive surgery that takes place at lunch time – grab a sandwich
too while you are out, are just a tip of what women are doing to ‘improve their
looks’.
You are not alone, we all have bits we don’t like and wish could disappear
without going under the knife or that dreaded word DIET. Even some supermodels and celebrities suffer
from body paranoia but with clever dressing they show off the bits they like,
be it ankles, feet, breast, shoulders, arms, legs or waist.
Below
are some simple tips that can boost your confidence and self-esteem even look
slimmer without dieting….. more can be found in my forth coming eBook.
Vertical stripes - as well as making you look slimmer, they help the body to appear
much longer and taller
A fitted jacket - it’s
worth spending money on a as it
gives you a sharper, sleek and more
defined silhouette and will always give the impression that you have a waist.
A low
slung belt,
particularly one with a fancy buckle will break up the bulge of a big tummy.
Dresses with all-over prints hide a multitude of sins and helps to
camouflage any lumps and bumps.
The fit - make sure your clothes fit. If necessary have things altered. Gapping waistbands, shirts that pull at the bust and
seams that are about to burst never make you look slimmer!
Large bust - If
you have a, the worst thing you can wear is a
polo neck or high round neck. You may
feel you’re making your bust look less conspicuous; it will end up looking like
a rather large, long sausage or even a shelf. Need more convincing try on a
deep V-neck or wrap top, you will see a transformation immediately, then look
at yourself in the polo neck/high neck top. You are drawing unwanted attention
to your bust!
Petite frame - little jackets, waistcoats and boleros/shrugs work
well. They won’t overpower your
features. It is
important to have the sleeves shortened; you don’t want to look like a circus
clown.
Hourglass
figure - show it off with a high waisted skirt or a corset belt
cinching the waist. It will draw
attention away from your hips and lengthen your legs.
Small cleavage - enhance it by wearing a padded lunge bra and/or add some chicken fillets. Even some lingerie adverts use chicken
fillets to give added cleavage. Apart from the amazing enhancing results your
clothes will look better much better.
Pear
shape - avoid tops that end at your widest
point. A more flattering length is one
that finishes just above or below hip level.
Wide-leg
- trousers balances out broad shoulders especially if you are full-figured or have toned legs from working
out.
Wrong
bra, bad silhouette? It is
important to have a proper fitting—it’ll transform your shape in your clothes. The dreaded double or even triple breast
syndrome will be no more. Breast will be in the right place and not on your stomach.
Even if your chest is on the small side, a good fitting bra will define and
sculpt your shape.
Skinny jeans – they are not everyone’s friend. Straight leg or wide leg
are more suitable for your shape if you carry more weight on your hips or your
thighs.
Tunic tops/dress - if you are Tall you can wear these with legs or over skinny jeans. You'll be surprised how good you'll look
