Let’s be honest, fashion is so much more than just feeling fashionable, it’s all about feeling confident while at the same time feeling comfortable in your own skin! And while most people can agree that every body type is beautiful, there are moments when you might want to look a little slimmer.
Maybe you have been skipping out on your gym sessions recently, or perhaps you’ve been eating a little more candy than usual. The good news is that there are tricks and tips to look slimmer than you actually are and manage to look and feel your best. To help you, here are some fashion hacks to make you look a few pounds lighter.
Embrace Monochromatic
Sometimes we look in the mirror and feel like we look like a full-fledged rainbow. Yet, if we can manage to wear a single color from head to toe, it can create a seamless and elongated line that will give us the illusion of more height and ultimately look slimmer.
While wearing a little color here and there can be fine, there’s something about it that makes us look just a little bit bigger than we actually are. Focus on wearing darker shades like black, navy or even a deep green to give us a chic and modern look that ultimately makes us look slim.
Experiment not only with darker colors but also with different textures that can add depth and interest to your outfit while also keeping you slim.
Choose The Right Fit
Clothing that actually fits you well is key to looking polished and slim. Wearing oversized pieces can be appealing if you are extremely tall and extremely skinny, yet if you have a few pounds to lose, it can overwhelm your frame, and ultimately make you look heavier than you actually are.
Instead, focus on wearing pieces that are fitted exactly to your form, and slim your body without necessarily clinging. If you’re really willing to go the extra mile, consider investing in tailoring for a perfect fit. Even small adjustments can make a huge difference in the overall fit of your clothing.
Go Vertical
Vertical stripes are the way to go when it comes to stripes. Horizontal can make you look much wider, particularly if it’s fitting. Vertical stripes draw the eye up and down making you look not only taller but ultimately slimmer. From your pants to your dresses, a timeless look that includes vertical stripes will make you look both slightly stylish and slim— all in one.
This can be especially beneficial if you’re buying swimwear. Buying a bathing suit that is horizontally striped can make you look much heavier than you actually are, whereas if you opt for a vertically striped suit it can significantly accentuate your height, and make your frame look much slimmer than it actually is.
