Ten Tips To Dress Thinner

Filed under: Dressing — Chetan @ 1:33 pm

There are a few tips by which we can dress thinner… You dont want to look good? Have these tips for granted, they would surely help.

Dress Thinner Tip #1: Wear the right size.

No outfit is going to take 20 pounds off your hips, but choosing the right clothing that fits properly can go a long way to slimming your look. If clothes are too tight, all the bulges, rolls, dimples, or any other flaw you may have will show through. If clothes are too big, they add bulk and can make you look heavier than you actually are.

Dress Thinner Tip #2: Long skirts for tall women, below the knee for short.

If you are very tall, you can wear a longer skirt that will elongate the look of your body and thus make you appear leaner. If you are shorter, a longer skirt might make you appear even shorter, but a skirt that falls right below the knee will help you appear a bit taller and leaner. Avoid ankle length skirts if you are short and avoid above the knee skirts if you are tall.

Dress Thinner Tip #3: Patterns fool the eye.

Optical illusion patterns, diagonal stripes, zig zags and the like can fool the eye and detract from problem areas. However, avoid horizontal and vertical stripes because these both can cause you to appear heavier.

Dress Thinner Tip #4: V-line neck and waist.

A V-neck outfit can help draw attention away from the middle area, thus slimming your entire appearance, while a V-line waist on a skirt or dress can really help reduce the appearance of bulk at the waist and top of the hips.

Dress Thinner Tip #5: Boot-cut pants, no flared or tapered legs.

If you have larger hips and thighs, when you wear pants, you do not want to wear the slim ankle or flare cut pant legs. The best cut for slimming is the boot-cut pant leg, because this will give a more symmetrical appearance and thus make you appear thinner.

Dress Thinner Tip #6: Avoid middle/waist bulk.

Avoid bulky scarves and belts around the waist, especially if your problem area includes your hips and waist.

Dress Thinner Tip #7: Wear heeled shoes.

If you can, wear at least a small heel on your shoe. The higher the heel on your shoe, the more slimming the effect. Heeled shoes slightly change the center of gravity as well as accentuating the usually smaller lower part of the legs while adding height – all things that cause you to look thinner.

Dress Thinner Tip #8: Minimum jewelry, size appropriate.

Avoid bulky jewelry, especially around the neckline. However, at the same time, if you are a larger women wearing very small pieces of jewelry, this can add to the illusion you are bigger than you really are. Pick jewelry appropriate to your size, without a lot of bulk.

Dress Thinner Tip #9: Avoid pleats.

Where it’s darts in shirts, pleated pants or skirts, pleats will pull when moving and if you have a bit of extra weight, they will not help accentuate your best features. This is especially true of your stomach area when wearing skirts or pants – avoid pleats.

Dress Thinner Tip #10: Foundation garments.

Yes, ladies, this means your underwear! It’s ironic this article ends where the dressing begins, but foundation garments make all the difference.

Bra straps that are too tight cause rolls or bulges. Panties that bind and don’t move with you can do the same not to mention those unsightly panty lines. Hosiery also can help slim your appearance. Body slimmer undergarments or foundation garments that fit properly can make a huge difference in how you look once you put on your clothes.

How to buy Furniture

Filed under: Home Improvement — Chetan @ 1:05 pm

As i already said, this blog would get the best articles from other good sites, and would help in home improvement,

Top 10 tips on how to buy furniture:

1)Do not skimp out on the price – furniture from cheap outlets are often defective, uncomfortable, and unsightly.
2)Have a budget set beforehand – salespeople are skilled at promoting and selling the most expensive piece on the lot, don’t give in to the temptation, have a price range in mind.
3)Go with your gut feeling – if you like a piece, indulge yourself but don’t buy furniture just because the price looks nice. Remember that you will be using it for a very long time (hopefully).
4)Shop around and wait for major sales
5)Don’t let your money pay for BMWs – many of the overrated galleries and stores sell almost the same styles and design as less-expensive, national brands.
6)Be wary of antiques – not only are antique furniture are to match and form an aesthetically pleasing set, you can easily be scammed. Bring a knowledgeable friend along.
7)Flea markets can have nice finds, just make sure it’s not junk but something that’s of value.
8)Don’t get suckered into buying an extended warranty.
9)Haggle! – negotiate, bargain, most salespeople have a certain bottom line above which they’re quite flexible. Just make sure you’re nice about it.
10)Try to buy a whole set at once – not only do you get a better deal, you save on delivery charges.
