Look Your Best! (1)

Try these ideas to help you look better in your clothes
"Does this make me look fat?"
We've all heard this question before and have probably asked it ourselves. But why are we so concerned about the clothes we wear? The answer is simple. We want to look our best, so we worry that our clothes don't flatter our bodies.
There is good news, though! By wearing the right clothing, you can hide those less-than-perfect trouble spots.
Problem areas
Short legs
Few people have long legs like a model, but short legs can appear longer. Create an unbroken line by matching your hose to your shoes. Wear black shoes with black hose. By matching them both to the bottom of your dress, you'll create an extra long line. High heels and pointed-toed shoes also make legs look longer.
"Muffin top"
Fat around the middle can spill over your pants, causing a "muffin top." Avoid this by staying away from pants that are too tight or too low. Instead, choose pants that fit above your hips and close to your waist.
