Ten Tips to look 10 pounds slimmer- Tip#2

Tip #2 Don’t squeeze – STRETCH!

I hope you  found some luck in finding some great outfits to help you look ten pounds slimmer with my last suggestion.  This second suggestion may sound simple but it can go wrong quite easily.  I’m going to suggest jeans but it’s very important that you follow these key points.

• Buy Stretch Jeans
• Dark colors look slimmer
• No pale or worn areas
• Wrinkles are never good

We have to admit that we aren’t teeny-boppers anymore and the days of laying on the bed with a hanger to zip up our skin tight Jordache jeans is well over. The key to looking chic is not to look stuffed into old jeans that we should have thrown out long ago.  Denim is such a stable in the American woman’s attire that you have to go out and treat yourself to the right pair.

Be sure they are not 100% cotton or many of the issues listed above are sure to come to haunt you.  Wear jeans that have a little stretch in the fabric.  It hugs the body closer without have the bunched up wrinkles at the groin. Now I know you know what I am talking about. lol Choose nice solid dark colored denim. It is not only slimming but you don’t want the worn or bleached out areas that draw the eye to your flaws. Choose a jean with a wider cut leg to draw and imaginary line from the hip to the cuff. Leave the skinny jeans to the bony girls. I hope these tips help you to find the perfect pair of jeans…  and don’t forget to get an extra pair once you do.

HUGS,  Hope

Ten Tips to look 10 pounds slimmer- Tip#1

Want to look like you have lost 10 pounds without going on a diet? Let’s face it, even the slimmest of us can look pudgy if dressed wrong.  So for those of us who are carrying a few extra pounds, anything that helps us feel our best is always appreciated. Over the next few weeks we are going to explore 10 Tips and Techniques to help us look 10 pounds lighter.  I’m not talking camouflage or hanging out  with friends that are bigger than we are. lol  I’m talking about tips on picking the right clothes and thinking about what we wear.

Tip #1 Always look to MA!
No, not your mom…  Monochrome & Accessorize!   The simplest but easiest forgotten tip is choose outfits of one earth tone color from head to toe.  Browns, blues, blacks, even cream or when appropriate white can work for anyone.  The key is to accessorize away from the areas we don’t want attention.  Have a big bottom? A bow, a print scarf, a pendant, or a unique pin are all great ways to pull peoples eyes away from those big hips.  A touch of a pretty print on the hem of a skirt,  with a nice solid top will detract attention from a disproportionate bosom.  By creating a monochromatic look we appear taller and leaner. A sure hit.

Classic Elegant Hosiery and Lingerie

I have a secret to share. One of the premiere shops for elegant hosiery in the United States is available Online.  I have personally been a customer of their for 7 years. I can’t say enough good things about the stockings and how they make me feel when I am wearing them. Secrets In Lace is based in Virginia and has a private label that is sought after by the stars and some of the most famous people in the world.  The quality is beyond what you are normally used to seeing and the classic and “classy” style will make you feel like a different woman.

In 1997 they decided to make their  exclusive line available to those of us that weren’t fortunate enough to live nearby. They went online and have made these elegant stockings accessible to everyone. Let me tell you that when you feel these beauties for the first time you will enter a whole new realm.  The stockings feel like you are holding the gossamer wings of a fairy.  When you slide them up your legs your instantly feel sexy.

Secrets In Lace is more than just hosiery.  They have gorgeous lingerie such as garterbelts, girdles, bra, sleepware, slips and more.  Give yourself a treat and take a few minutes to see what they have and tell me you don’t agree.  I have always been a firm believer in nice undergarments. No matter what  you wear on top you feel like more put together when underneath your bra and panty match. I know you know what I’m saying.. lol  Their motto is Keep the Romance Alive ….  I say show yourself some love and do it for you.  Pamper yourself in luxury.
