Slimming Clothing Tips and Tricks to Help You “Lose” Those Last 5 Pounds!


Don’t worry about eating that extra piece of pizza or if you just didn’t have the time to run today, because we have a little secret to tell you! Not to say that eating healthy and exercising regularly aren’t good habits to get into, but we all know that sometimes life gets in the way. For those moments, there are certain clothing tricks, colors, and silhouettes that can give the illusion that you are actually 5 to 10 pounds thinner. So, what are you waiting for?


5 SLIMMING WARDROBE TRICKS

1. Try a Bootcut Style
Although one of the current trends includes skinny jeans, this style is not for everyone. If you don’t think skinny jeans suit you, then try a pairboot cut jeans. A of boot cut style is "ultra-flattering" on most shapes, and has low back pockets to give your bum a subtle lift.

2. Accentuate your Middle
Drawing attention to your waistline instantly creates a feminine silhouette. With that being said, no outfit is not complete until it is belted. Belts instantly create shape by defining the waist. Try a brown or beige belt like this fabulous Marc by Marc Jacobs Clasp Belt, which will match almost anything in your wardrobe. In addition to the belt, the staple top that every girl must own is the
wrap top. The wrap waist accentuates the middle and can also be layered over a slimming cami.



3. Smaller Isn’t Slimming
Don’t wear a size smaller just because it makes you feel better, or bigger because you don’t want to "show your figure". If the clothes are too big, the perceived boundaries of your figure will be extended to the edges of the garment; if the clothing is too small, the fabric will bunch and draw attention to bulges.

4. Wear Slimming Undergarments
Nobody has to know what’s underneath; if you would like some added oomph, wear a below-the-waist shaper, such as Spanx. Choose bras and underwear with nonbinding bands to avoid unwanted rolls. Also, don’t buy one to wear with everything. You need various styles for different outfits.



5. Maintain Balance & Proportion
If you are wearing something tight on your bottom half (like leggings or skinny jeans), then pair it with a loose-fitting top. If you are wearing something form-fitting on top, pair it with something that has some volume (like wide leg trousers or bootcut jeans). Simple as that!


4 OUTFITS THAT WILL MAKE YOU LOOK SLIMMER

1. Create Shape with Flowy Dresses & Cardigans
The perfect outfit for the warmer months is a flowy dress paired with a loose cardigan and a belt to give you shape. The light fabric of this dress style floats over curves instead of clinging to them, and the loose "cardigan’s shape" covers the arms and frames the silhouette so you, in turn, look thinner!.

2. Hide Bulges with Oversized Cardigans & Skinny Pants
Another cardigan option that slims is an oversized lightweight cardigan worn with skinny pants and heels. The skinny pants emphasize your slim lower legs, while the heels (preferably in the same color) not only give you glamorous height, but also elongate your legs. Again, the cardigan does not add bulk and skims your sides to hide any bulges.

3. Lengthen your Body with a Monochromatic Palette
An outfit consisting of monochromatic colors instantly streamlines your shape and effortlessly lengthens the body. The colors do not have to be the exact same, as long as they are in the same color family. Shades of white and cream keep the effect airy and light, while black and grey hues create a great night-out outfit.



4. Trim your Figure with Layers
A calculated combination of layers trims the figure. Try a cropped jacket over a "baby doll" top, paired with slouchy pants and wedges. The top covers up the tummy while the cropped jacket defines the waist and slims the upper arms. The dramatic length of the pants automatically makes legs look extra long, especially with the added height from the wedges.

Use these tricks to help you look and feel better. You can easily slim down with the use of a few key items in your wardrobe and some careful planning!

Get the Latest Scoop on what Fashions are Out

0 komentar


Just as fashion ebbs and flows, yesterday’s fashion ins are shut out in the cold! A true fashionista keeps careful track of what items have jumped to the out list. No one wants to be seen in a trend that expired yesterday, so if you are used to wearing trendy items, you may want to keep an eye out to see what’s out! The ever revolving door that is the fashion industry regularly makes and breaks fads in the blink of an eye. Look to your fashion magazines, cable channels that specialize in clothing and style, or great articles on the "World Wide Web" to determine when it is time to hang up your out clothing and accessories



What’s out this season :


1) Say good-bye to low cut pants today

The parents of the world let out a collective sigh when the ultra low cut pant waist line was declared dead. The days of a thong peeking out from the back of your trousers are a thing of the past, so pack away your crack-baring duds for their next time around! Today’s fashionable pants still feature a lower cut that seasons past—including the popular above-the-navel waistline of the 1950s—but are well above the modesty mark than in the recent past.


2) Personalized Items are so old school, don’t ya know

Unless that “L” on your sweater stands for Laverne, put it away! The era of personalized items, from jewelry (remember the “Carrie” necklace?) to purses to clothing is in the past. Even though you searched an hour at your local bargain basement store to find that bag with your initial embroidered in leather, it’s time to say goodbye.


3) Newsboy Hats Are Yesterday’s News

Extra, extra, read all about it: newsboy hats are out! Put down those papers, get off the corner, and ditch the hat! Even though cooler weather has arrived, find another way to keep your head warm than covering up in a newsboy hat. Consider donning a jaunty fedora cocked to one side—it’s the latest rage!




If you are concerned about items in your wardrobe or accessory closet becoming out of date, consider purchasing classic items. Look into wardrobe staples that are permanently found on the in list, so you will not have to juggle and reevaluate your closet. Furthermore, you may find a piece of clothing or accessory that you absolutely love has been retired to the out list. Instead of giving up a favorite, consider alternative ways to turn an out into an in!

Finding the Dresses and Fashion you need !

0 komentar

When you look in your closet do you see dresses that you like or are there many, many old, out of style dresses that you wouldn’t dare be seen in? Fashions do change over time and naturally the cut and style of modern dresses is very different from even 20-30 years ago. Why? Fashions change, tastes change and of course people simply get bored of wearing the same old dresses.

The 1970s and 80s saw the beginning of more divergent
trends in fashion. This was the result of the increasing popularity of ready-to-wear collections by major designers, which made fashionable label conscious dressing possible for the middle class. You’ll find that every store has dozens of trendy labels that portray the image style and class. Today most people simply buy their dresses of the shelf, no need to have each individual item of "clothing hand made".


When you’re looking for the right dress to wear, don’t worry too much about it being the perfect one. Dresses come in all styles, shapes, colors and materials. Try this approach: choose a dress style that you feel comfortable and confident in, accessorize it with a few tasteful choices (such as a nice purse) and enjoy your evening out.


We’ve searched the web and found some very interesting selections for you to choose from if your looking for a new dress or dresses. The power of the internet allows you to thoughtfully choose and select the dresses that would look best on you. So the next time you look into your wardrobe closet and you’re wondering what to wear, you’ll have a wide range of comfortable, attractive dresses to choose from.
