Fashion Fridays, Kuel Life Thought Leader: Tracy Gold
Print can be your best friend when you are going through body changes.
Many women think that wearing print will make them look bigger, but if worn correctly, it can do wonders to disguise the parts you aren’t crazy about.Â
When you are going through body changes it’s tempting to hide under baggy clothes, hoping to ‘cover-up’ the ‘unacceptable’ parts of your body. It’s no surprise that we might feel embarrassed or ashamed about weight fluctuations because the fashion industry has fed us this garbage for so long.Â
But covering up doesn’t work. In fact, it can make you look bigger!Â
So if covering up doesn’t work, but you don’t want to wear tight clothing that makes you feel self-conscious and uncomfortable, what is the alternative? What is the in-between?
Fashion Secret Two For Your Changing Body:
Wear prints in shapely styles. Now before you go into a panic, shape does not mean tight. It just means that it follows the lines of your body. This will allow the print to work its magic because print fools the eye. It doesn’t know what is fabric and what is your body. A solid color can show every underwear line and cling in all the places you don’t want it to. But print allows you to wear shapely cuts without all of that.
Print only makes you look bigger if you wear it in big baggy styles with no shape. This creates an expansive look with no definition, which in turn makes you look bigger.
As women, we often think in extremes. We think we must wear super baggy or super tight clothing. There is so much in-between and your body deserves to find that happy middle. You deserve to feel great about yourself regardless of what your body is doing on any given day.
