Do you ever walk around your house half in a daze, wondering what you can possibly pull out of your wardrobe that’s clean, functional, and actually suitable for the weather outside? Do you always find yourself wanting to follow the current clothing trends, but find them unsuitable for your body type? Here are some simple solutions to common fashion problems.
I like loose clothes, but they look like a sack on me! Who doesn’t secretly want the ease of the haphazard bohemian look? The magazine models wear it so easily, and they look like they just fell out of bed. This isn’t a hard look to create, but yes – you can end up looking like a sack if you’re not careful. The best way around this is to always keep a part of the outfit form fitting. A close cut top, or a tighter denim skirt with the baggy top. This will give you the look, but show that you still have a body underneath.
I can’t get an outfit ready for a night out! If most of your wardrobe is geared toward work, it’s hard to find something sufficiently glitzy for going out. The answer to this puzzle is to buy a few dedicated ‘going out’ dresses. The rest, you will all have waiting for you in the closet. A nice blazer for a fancier event, accessories, pumps. All you need are one or two great party dresses, or cocktail dresses.
I don’t like my waist/hips/thighs! This is a very common problem, and I thank my lucky stars every day that designers brought back the bubble dress. This cut of dress will be form fitting around all the parts you like, and completely mask the bit from the waist to the knees that you’d rather not flaunt.
I want to wear skinny jeans! Anyone can wear skinny denim jeans. Anyone. Don’t let the word skinny fool you. They’re actually well suited to most body types. The answer is all in the top they’re paired with. If you are super straight, with few curves, skinny jeans can make you look even more angular. A great way to fix this is by wearing a sundress, or a long bohemian inspired billowy top with them. The fabric will give you curves, and you can still show off your legs. If you are larger, try a bubble shirt, or tunic top. The cut will hide everything you want hidden around your waist and thighs.
