There is no need to worry too much if your weight loss
programme is going along slowly. That is often the case. If you
want to give yourself a boost, though, and at least look
thinner, there are a few tips that may help you. There is no
harm in a bit of illusion, especially if it can boost your
confidence. Here are just a few of the tips:
1. This one is for women, as make-up can be a friend in this
illusion of looking thin. It is a special tool that can make
some changes in favour of a thinner looking you.
a. A good tan can make you look thinner! Stay in the sun or go
to a beauty saloon, and use a tanning lotion, or whatever it
takes to tan your skin. If you use a tanning lotion, use more
under the cheeks, as the coloured areas will look deeper. That
will make your face look thinner than it really is.
b. The use of a lot of eye make up can make your eyes bigger.
The bigger your eyes look, the smaller your face will appear to
others.
c. Pay attention to your eyebrows, for the same reasons as in
b.
d. You can even make up your legs; yes, really, why not? Put a
vertical line of oil on the middle part of your legs, so that
it makes your bone shine. You will find that your legs, due to
the extra shine, actually appear a bit longer!
2. This next trick works well both for men and women. It has to
do with the manner in which you arrange your hair. The more
volume you give to your hair, the better it will be for making
your face look smaller. Once done, try to remember to play with
it from time to time.
3. The clothes you wear can deceive the eye as to your true
size, and thus make you look thinner:
a. Don't use clothes that are too colourful, as that will only
attract more eyes on the areas that you really would like to
hide. Chose black or dark blue clothes, as they can make you
look up to 5 kilos thinner.
b. When it comes to skirt length, for those who want to to look
a bit thinner than they really are, you should choose knee
length skirts. Shorter ones will show off just how fat those
legs are, and longer ones accentuate thick ankles.
c. Another little trick for men and women is to use vertical
stripes. That can apply to trousers, skirts, shirts, dresses,
blouses etc. On blouses and shirts, use buttons, because they
create a vertical line. The same effect can be reproduced with
long zippers.
d. Loosen the pockets, and avoid filling them up. Full pockets
add bulk, not the visual effect you are looking for when you
are trying to look thinner.
4. Always be aware of the position of your body and your
posture. A correct position can make you appear up to three
centimetres taller than you are.
Keep in mind these tricks and work on your illusion of looking
thinner. Also, you can use your imagination to discover more!

How You Can Look Thinner
A few simple tips on the way you dress can change your life - make you look thinner and feel happier.
The clothes you choose have a lot to do with the way you look. Unsuitable, unflattering garments can really make you look your worst. The following list of hints should help you to make the best choices when you go clothes shopping.
1. Dont accentuate your heavy areas with ruffles. Never wear them on a blouse if youre busty, or around the hem of your skirt if you have hefty legs.
2. By wearing the same color skirt, hosiery and shoes youll look a lot thinner from the waist down.
3. Try to create a vertical image whenever possible. Wear long scarves, dresses that button from neckline to hem and vertically striped outfits.
4. Control-top pantyhose will give you that five-pounds-thinner look anytime.
5. Wear wrap-around skirts to effectively camouflage bulging stomach, hips and derriere. A wrap coat can also make you look thinner.
6. Where you are heavy, wear dark colors; if you have large hips and legs, wear dark skirts and pants. Dark colors recede and dont draw attention.
7. Where you are thin, wear warm or bright colors; if you have small shoulders and are small-busted, wear pastels to spotlight these thin areas.
8. Never wear a tight belt which forces bulges above or below it. And dont wear anything with a tight elastic waistband.
9. Your legs will look longer and thinner if you wear slingback and backless shoes rather than pumps.
10. Remember that small patterns are best for big people. Avoid clothes with large floral patterns.
Finally, one last suggestion. Try wearing a cool-colored v-neck sweater belted over a warm-colored v-neck shirt. This will draw the eye inward to the warm color and upward toward the face.

Smart Dressing: How Clothes 'Make the Man'
Majority of men in the corporate world are very well groomed, but when it comes to choice in clothing, they are a little on the unadventurous side. When it comes to style and colors, the average male sticks to what he knows best – button down shirts or knitted tees in blue (sky and navy), baby pink (since men can be such babies), pale yellow (a daring change), olive, black and other basic and solid shades.
Of course, sticking to the basics keep them out of trouble with the fashion police. Or so they think. Men make tons of fashion mistakes that put them in the league of Third World fashion. In other words, if you wore any of these looks or even discussed them in the Western world, you automatically be a GQ fashion.
Men out there, take heed.
Designer Labels
This is the biggest fashion mistake. Ninety percent of the average male populations slide their belts underneath the labels of the designer's jeans they are wearing. What's the reason behind this practice? Is it to show women that they can afford Versace and Armani? That they have such great taste that they know how to pick the trendiest labels?
Men should keep in mind that if they really have to flaunt their style, that means they have no style at all. There is a saying that money can't buy love. Well, it can't buy a sense of style either.
Tuxedo in the Tropics
How many weddings have you attended where the groom and his entourage were wearing tuxedos under the heat of the sun? It's ninety degrees in the shade, the bride's makeup is running, the flower girls and ring bearers have turned to liquid, and your monkey suit doubles as a sauna slimmer. Whose idea was that to wear tuxes?
Don Johnson Now Wears Socks
Miami Vice was cool, WAS being the operative word. That was then, but this is now. This is the 21st century and Don Johnson has made enough money to buy himself some socks. Sure, it's hot; but for the sake of your feet and those present when you remove your shoes, please wear socks with leather shoes.
That sockless Miami Vice look went out with Dynasty, the power suit, big hair courtesy of Aqua Net, Wayfarers, and Don Johnson himself. Even Melanie Griffith was smart enough to make the switch to a more man-of-the-moment, Antonio Banderas.
Suspended For Wearing a Belt
That's what's going to happen to men who wear suspenders AND a belt. This is a definite fashion 'don't'. This is as big a booboo as insider trading in the stock exchange and as dangerous to the image as hedging funds. Wearing suspenders and a belt is like wearing a bowtie and with a boy scout scarf. Doesn't make sense, does it?
Spinning Tops
Reserve the tanks for the beach or the gym and the sheer tees go on only if you are a male stripper. No matter how great a body a man's got, tanks and sheer tees shouldn't be a part of their daily lives.
A Suitable Match
So he's wearing a great Armani power suit… that doesn't fit! But he wears it anyway because it's an Armani. Wearing an ill-fitting expensive suit is like a woman wearing a French bra that is two sizes too big, but she's wearing it because, well, it's a French bra.
Consider the fashion blunders mentioned above. When in doubt as to what to wear for when, it would be best to ask a fashionable friend or, better yet, a gay guy with a great sense of style (they usually do have it). But, remember, if any of them tell you to wear any of these no-nos, do not just question their friendship. Dump them for fashion's sake!
