MORE Apple Dumplings...

     Before we dive into pants, I have a few quick notes about skirts and dresses for you:
     Straight dresses (column-shaped) will not at all look good on you: they will cling to your middle and make it very prominent. Details at the waistline are also things to run from, as they will draw the eye toward your middle. Skirts with pleats? Same thing.
     On to pants--
     Never wear tight pants, be they skinny jeans, tapered-leg pants, or whatever. Also don't wear pants with high waists. Pick "natural" waisted pants. These will not bring as much attention to your stomach. Also do NOT wear elastic-waisted pants. Pants with elastic waistbands (like the kind on many pajama pants and sweatpants) cause the fabric to gather up to your waist, and makes you look much heavier than you are. The best cut of pants for you is flare or bootcut.


     And that is all I have on pants for you. Next post is on accessories, and the one after that will touch on--- movies!

  1. Hello Elavria :-)

    I like the jeans in the picture; very flattering.

    I disagree though with some of the assertions you make in this post. "The best pants for you are flare or bootcut." This is not necessarily true. The fun thing about being a woman is that we come in all different shapes and sizes. The "best" pants for someone depend almost entirely on their body type and height. Some of it depends on their personal style and colouring.
    And let's not forget the rest of the outfit!! That adds alot to the jeans chosen.

    However, I agree 100% on the elastic waistbands!!! They have a million things wrong with them and shouldn't even been worn for PJs. They should all be burned. -_-
