Plus Size Fashion Tips
Large Woman
Over the years many have complained that there aren't enough clothing
supply stores that cater to the full-bodied, full-figured woman of
today. In recent years though that has changed. There are many more
options out there, and here are a few tips for getting just that
right look.
- First fashion tip: Of all you need to measure the
length of
the shirts
and pants you
already wear. Sure, that T-shirt says 1X, but will it be too short for
your stomach, or so long that you feel like your wearing a mini-dress?
You can find a tape measure in any general merchandise store if you
don't already own one, and then measure shirts from neckline to bottom,
and pants from the top of the seam to the bottom. Also take into
account how you wear your pants. Some people wear them on their hips,
while others pull their pants up all the way to the ribs. So be sure to
measure it next to you as well.
- Second fashion tip for women is to find where
your curve line is. It doesn't matter if you bought the most expensive
dress in the store if it makes you look like a tube! The best curve
line to highlight when choosing apparel is the one just above your
hips. Find that perfect skirt or those perfect pants or shorts that
come up to that area and rest comfortably.
- Third tip is to color
coordinate. This trick has worked for many years, but never goes out of
fashion: prints and solids go together, solids and solids only go
together if the colors are very different, and prints and prints don't
work together at all. Black is slimming, but not the best choice in the
summer because it absorbs heat.
- The top colors that look good with any
body type or skin tone are red, purple, blue, and white. There are many
ways to accentuate your already beautiful appearance. Make-up in light
amounts that highlights your eyes, skin, or even clothes can make you
the belle of the ball. Just be sure to not over-do it. Many
people see
someone who wears too much make-up as someone who is desperate to hide
their real face.
- Jewelry is also a nice way to show off your
best
features. A person's arm can usually be an indicator of which jewelry
will look best. For instance, a person with dainty fingers and long
nails usually looks best in petite jewelry, whereas a person with a
large wrist and strong fingers usually looks best in big gaudy
jewelry.
No matter what your body type, there's a style out there for you. All
you have to do is find it, and once you do then your look will
transcend fad and shallow insecurities. Thank you for reading and all
the best to you beautiful ladies out there
