Struggling to lose that last 10 pounds? Hey, we all are. Well, there is some good news. While losing weight is usually the primary goal for anyone, you can actually dress in a manner that will make it appear you have lost that weight.
We all have our strong and weak areas. Dressing to look thinner is often just about emphasizing the good and moving the eyes away from the bad. Here are some simple tips anyone can use to look thinner than they really are.
We need to start with the basic elements of any outfits. Yes, our tops and bottoms. We want them to be one darker color. We also want them to have a clean cut and not be busy. Vertical lines should be emphasized as much as possible.
Dark colors tend to deemphasize the areas they cover. As such, focus on wearing those colors in your trouble spots. If your thighs bother you, dark slacks will help reduce any unwanted attention that they might otherwise attract.
Color is your friend when it comes to dressing for a thinner look. Black and dark blue will not attract attention, but what about for you assets? A solid strong color like red and plenty of accessories will bring the focus to those areas.
You can often remold your body with undergarments and padding. Using pads to lift the shoulders can create distinct, clean lines that make you thinner. There is a bra for every occasion, so make sure to check out your options.
As you well know, fabrics come in many styles and widths. Go with thin fabrics that are not clingy. Bulkier, heavy fabrics should be avoided like the plague. They will not enhance a thinner look, so there simply is no need for them.
If you want to look thinner, tighter clothes will do the trick, right? Wrong! Clothes that are to tight just make your bad areas stick out. Go with clothes that move over a trouble area seamlessly and are dark.
Clean cut clothes will definitely make you look thinner, but do not mistake this for a suggestion that you should wear baggy outfits. You want something that emphasizes your curves, but does not hide them.
What about prints? Many women enjoy wearing outfits that have prints or embellishments on them. If you are going for the thinner look, this is usually a bad choice. Prints tend to bring attention to areas of the body that should not get it.
Ah, but you cannot live without some of your prints. Well, the only exception that I have ever seen work is with prints that are worn only in the area to be accentuated. Since prints draw attention, it can work out well.
In summary, a thin look is not that hard to achieve. Choose darker colors for your outfits. The cut should be clean and the materials should be thinner. Try to emphasize as many vertical lines as possible.
