There are women who often struggle with excess weight. You can often hear from them that they are on a diet, trying to lose weight and just as often trying to hide problem areas of the body. Fortunately, there are some easy and useful tricks that any lady can use.
1. Dark colors and focus on details
You've probably heard many times that dark clothes make you look "thinner". This, of course, does not mean that you have to wear dark clothes. Here we just want to advise you to avoid white clothes. We confused you a bit, didn't we?
The rule here is that the brighter the colors of your clothes, the more voluminous you will look. However, you do not need to give up the colorful clothes you like. By combining colors, you can skillfully hide your imperfections. Choose clothes with darker patterns on the parts of the body that you want to hide. If you have a problem area, such as your abdomen, then wear a shirt with a pattern on the waist. You can also choose a shirt that expands down so that you emphasize the chest, not the abdomen.
If the problem area is on your buttocks, bet on dark jeans or pants with vertical stripes. Forget about large pockets or other prints on the backs, they will only add even more volume. If you want to hide the extra pounds on your thighs and show your calves, then knee-length skirts are the best solution.
2. Forget about loose clothes
Most overweight people make the mistake of choosing loose-fitting clothes to hide their overweight.
Believe it or not, loose clothing doesn't really hide anything, it only makes things worse, and in the end you look ridiculous and funny. Instead, choose the right clothes. Never buy clothes that do not suit you. Don't think that you will look better in smaller jeans just because you managed to fit into them. Buy clothes that suit you.3. Jackets should be your best friend
The jacket is a perfect way to hide extra pounds on the waist. The fitted jacket adds charm and makes you look thinner and taller.
We recommend that you choose a fitted jacket in a dark color, with which you can wear a white shirt. The jacket will perfectly hide your belly and will also create an attractive line at the waist. The same goes for fitted linen shirts, wear them during the warmer months when it is not possible to wear a jacket.
4. Be sure to walk upright
Here we want to insert something that is a little out of the way. Many overweight people walk hunched over because of insecurity and try to be invisible because they are trying to hide their weight. This is extremely wrong because it attracts people's attention, but not in a good way. Work on your stand.
As soon as you straighten your back and lift your chin, you will look as if you have just lost a few pounds. It may not sound strange, but it is true. Your self-esteem will increase and it is very likely that many people will like you.
5. Hair and makeup
If you think that your hair and make-up have nothing to do with your appearance and especially with your overweight, you are wrong.
The worst thing you can do with your hair is to cut it short. The only thing this hairstyle will do is make you look even rounder. Instead, let your hair grow and make a nice hairstyle. This will lengthen your face and make you look thinner. Avoid curls - straight hair is the only right choice.
Speaking of makeup, use a foundation that is darker than your skin color. In this way, applied along the line of the jaw, the darker color of the foundation will make the lines of your face thinner. Apply on the skin and dark blush, starting from the cheekbones to the corners of the lips and watch the weight disappear from your face.
