Curvy Style: Get Stylish, Lose Weight Later
So I’ll lose weight and go to dance. I’ll lose weight and go to the pool. I'll lose weight, and that one will fall in love with me. So I’ll lose weight and buy myself a dress that I have dreamed of for so long. I'll lose weight and ... Stop! But what if you first start enjoying life, and only then lose weight?
Hey! My name is Katya, I am a stylist-image maker, and I will tell you how to become stylish with any size and shape. And start loving yourself now, and not later ... when you lose weight.
The first thing to do is to realize that you should say goodbye to things "in a sticky shape". No matter how slender you may seem to yourself in them, most often this is not so. Leave space between your body and clothing. Notice how the impression changes when you wear looser pants:
Expose the thinnest parts of your body: your wrists and ankles. This will make you look more graceful and sophisticated:
Use the technique of vertical lines, they stretch out the silhouette perfectly. It can be the lines of an unbuttoned jacket or cardigan, or a free-hanging scarf. A solid inner layer will enhance this technique, creating a whole vertical block of color, which will also visually make the figure more slender.
Accessories can also be verticals. Elongated pendants and rectangular handbags. And also V-shaped notches:
One of my favorite techniques is monochrome or a single color image. Such bows create one vertical stripe, which also visually stretches the silhouette:
Don't forget you have a waist! It can be accentuated and give the figure an alluring hourglass silhouette. The main thing to remember is that the strap should be two fingers wide, and 3-4 for outerwear.
High waist! Here's what will definitely decorate your looks! Try to choose loose skirts and trousers with a high waistline. This technique creates the right proportions and makes your legs infinitely long:
Please do not neglect the dresses! The most versatile styles are the wrap dress and the shirt dress. You can experiment with the length and neckline. Also, these styles can be used as a top layer. The main thing! Try to choose plain fabrics or neutral prints. Big, lurid flowers can make you look even bigger.
Be careful with contours. Do not use them at the widest point of your figure (as in the photo below), horizontals visually increase. It's the same story with horizontal stripe prints. Be careful with them.
The rule of proportionality. Try to choose accessories of medium or large size. Pay attention to the photo on the right. Against the background of a small handbag, the girl looks larger than she really is.
Advice for those who cannot part with their favorite skinny: choose a more voluminous top, cover the groin area, use the technique of vertical lines and do not forget about your graceful ankles and wrists:
Light-colored shoes to match the skin tone will suit absolutely everyone and will visually stretch the growth. Also pay attention to the width of the straps, they should not be too narrow and dig into the leg. Remember the rule of proportion.
In conclusion, I want to say: girls, you are all beautiful! Develop your own sense of style, try new techniques, look for what is right for you! Break all the rules, but do it in style! You can start enjoying a fulfilling life right now! And if you have any difficulties or questions, you can always turn to your humble servant.
