 Etebooks Offers Slimming Fashion Tips For Plus Size Women

We all want to look our best, whether we’re short and slim or tall and heavier. Here are a few tips I’ve collected for plus size women that will help us look our best.

Pants

Choose pants that are long enough for you. If your pants are too short, it visually cuts the length of your legs. The longer your legs look, the slimmer they’ll appear.

Also choose pants that fit you well, not too tight or clingy. Fabrics that are too thin tend to cling to your legs and reveal bumps we’d rather keep out of sight.

Choose pants that are either boot cut, wider legged or flared at the bottom. The boot cut is slimming, while the wider cuts also add a slimming effect by keeping a visual straight line from our hips to our ankles. The worst choice would be a tight, tapered pant leg bottom as this enhances the width of your hips and thighs.

Capri pants are very slimming as well if they’re the right length. Choose a style where the bottom of the pant ends a few inches above your ankles but below the widest part of your calves.

Skirts

Choose skirts that rest just above your knees. A mid-calf skirt cuts the length of your legs and draws eyes to the thickest part of your lower legs.

Again, proper fit is key here. Something too tight will visually enhance and draw attention to bulges that we’d rather not publicize. Also look for skirts that fit below the waistline if you have a thick waist.

Bras

A well fitted bra is a must for every woman. Not only to give support and comfort, but a too tight bra can pop out those back rolls like nobody’s business!

If your cup size is not too large, consider trying a sports bra for a comfier fit that has adequate support. No wires here ladies!

Colors

Choose darker colors for areas you don’t want the eyes to focus on and brighter colors for places you want to accentuate. Darker colors such as black and navy are very slimming and should be in every woman’s closet.

Dressing from head to toe in one color is also very slimming as it makes a person look taller. Matching your pantyhose to the color of your shoes and skirts helps achieve this look.

Patterns

Stay away from large patterns and look for vertical stripes – thin is best. Thin stripes help give the illusion of length. Adding length helps give the illusion of a longer body, which helps you look thinner. Small, delicate prints can also be very flattering.

Fit

If your clothing is too tight, it accentuates and magnifies all flaws. If our clothing is too loose and baggy, we think we’re hiding our size but the opposite actually happens: we magnify our size.

So many tips to keep in mind when shopping for new clothes! But the key points to remember are proper fit and visually lengthening fashions. We have so many options now in plus size fashions that we can find exactly what works best for our body types.

 Etebooks. Women’s Fashion Footwear: 9 Shoes You Must Have

If you’re like most women, you have dozens upon dozens of sandals, sneakers, loafers, flip-flops, boots, and other footwear. But how many of them do you love? Really love? How many fit well, complement your fashion sense, and are versatile enough to serve multiple purposes? Moreover, how many of these shoes do you really need? You may be surprised to learn that the following nine must-haves are the only styles required to create a shoe wardrobe so all-encompassing, so perfect, that no matter what the occasion is, you’ll have just the right shoe.

1. Two or three pairs of expensive-looking shoes for a work.  Study what your boss is wearing then get yourself two great-looking pairs of similar shoes.  Not only will you always look appropriate and stylish. you’ll always have a pair clean and ready should one need  to go to the cobbler.  Need style suggestions? Go with pumps. Not only are pumps flattering and easy to wear, they are the quintessential woman’s work shoes, especially for those working in offices, banks, or upscale shops.  Opt for a dark or medium neutral.  Think black, chocolate, cordovan  (an old-fashioned word for cherry-kissed brown), or even burgundy, navy, or charcoal.

2. One warm-weather work shoe.  Your best bet is a two-part pumpor one with peep toes in a light shade such as tan, beige or dove gray.

3. One pair of slingbacks in a neutral shade.  They look chic with straight skirts and classic-cut trousers. They can be worn with bare legs or opaque winter stockings. Plus, they work well with formal and near-formal wear, they add sophistication to jeans, and instantly dress up a denim skirt and cardigan like nothing else can.

4. One pair of strappy dress sandals to wear with formal or semi-formal attire.  They can sex-up a pair of jeans, too.  Best colors: a mid-tone or pale neutral, including  metallics such as silver or gold.

5. One pair of neutral-colored casual shoes for weekends.  A woman can never go wrong with classics such as oxfords, moccasins, loafers, or clogs.

6. One pair of attractive athletic shoes.  Theyre good-enough-looking for your Juicy Couture tracksuit, yet hard-working enough to perform at the gym.

7. One pair of fashion boots in a medium or dark neutral. Something classic enough  for work-wear yet sexy enough to add an edge to jeans and an everyday tee.  Top-of-the-calf boots with a flat heel are one of the cold weather seasons hottest looks, but are surprisingly in-demand even as the weather grows warmer.

8. Two or more pair of casual, warm weather shoes in a pale neutral or fashion color. Think sandals, ballet slippers, or flip-flops done up in a dressy material like leather.  Consider yourself a die-hard fashionista?  Find a pair of espadrilles with a low to medium heel. Espadrilles are one of 2006’s most coveted warm-weather  trends. 

9. One pair of galoshes or other weather-protective footwear.  If you spend a good amount of time outdoors, go with two pairs . Be sure one is a classic style, such as Hunter Wellingtons in navy, green, red, pink or pale blue.

So ladies, clean out your closets, and stop spending money on shoes you don’t absolutely love or  that does not fit well, complement your style and is not versatile to serve multiple purposes. If you follow the above tips you will create a woman’s fashion footwear wardrobe, that no matter what the occasion is, you will have the perfect shoe.

Plus Size Fashion  Classically Simple

Okay so we have all seen the fashion shows on TV, or the pictures from them in the magazines and thought about how unbelievably and unnaturally thin the models are.  Personally I find it very depressing.  I look at these beautiful clothes on these beautiful girls and know that even if I had the money to buy the clothes, they would never look like that on me.  I am not a large girl and actually wear a fairly small size, but I still find the fashion industry massively depressing.

This made me wonder for a while about plus size women and their fashion.  I mean they must have the same types of thoughts right?  Well now they have their own plus size fashion industry.  I have seen some of the shows and the models, and these are beautiful women and beautiful clothes.  I mean there are beautiful larger women that make their living as models, defying all the stereotypes that society has set about that bigger women arent as beautiful as thin women.

Now I do have to say though, that while I admire this fashion industry that has sprung up, I am a little confused as to where the designs are being implemented.  I mean for other clothes the designers prance them out and then other smaller companies start imitating the styles and soon a new trend starts and they are available in all the stores.  However, I have yet to really see this in the plus size fashion world.  It still seems as though there is a lack of beautiful clothes for plus size women.  I would really like see more stores and boutiques built around these fashions out there for plus size women.  I think it would help make people more proud of themselves and their bodies.
