Celebrate your curves! HOW TO LOOK SEXY & FABULOUS IN SKINNY JEANS!

December 12, 2014 By TheLifestylista

SkinnyJeans

You love the look of blue skinny jeans on your favorite celebrities but you think they won’t be flattering for you?

Let’s face it, for most women there is nothing more traumatic than going to a store to buy jeans! The problem is, so many women don’t know the celeb style secrets that make looking good in skinny jeans a breeze!

Let’s fix that now! Give the tips and tricks in this article a try and you might find yourself looking fierce & fantastic in a pair of skinny jeans!

— DEFINITION: Skinny jeans fit snugly along the entire length of your leg from your hips right down to your ankle. They create the illusion of long, lean legs.

— A DARKER WASH
You will find a darker wash to be more slimming and it’s also much more versatile. It can be casual during the day and dressed up for a more sophisticated evening look. If you’re curvy, avoid the distressed look with bleaching, tears etc. because it will make your thighs look bigger. Stick with plain dark wash jeans.

— STRETCH
If you go for some stretch in your jeans – Lycra – you will find that they are much more forgiving to your curves. They expand and contract just where they need to.

— STYLING:
The key to making skinny jeans work is choosing the most flattering tops and accessories to go with them.

— TOP:
Proportion is crucial when you wear skinny jeans! Don’t go for short or tight tops. Wear a LOOSE, FLOWY TOP – the volume will create a visual balance the tightness of the skinny jeans on the bottom. Dolman sleeve tops, empire waisted blouses, flowy tunics… these will not only balance the skinny jeans but they will also cover your waistline & behind AND not cling to your tummy.
FITTED JACKET or BLAZER that comes below the hips – this can give your skinny jeans flattering and sophisticated look
COLOR – Blue skinny jeans can act as a neutral foundation for your whole outfit and so you can add color with your tops.
If you want to draw the eye away from your hips and thighs, you can accessorize using a big necklace or a fabulous headband.

— SHOES
Fabulous footwear is a must with skinny jeans! Wear with heels because this will extend the lines of your legs in the skinny jeans and make your legs look longer and leaner. The heels will also lift your behind so it will appear even perkier! You can wear flats but if you are curvy, be aware that wearing flats will make you look wider than you are.

— BELT – if you have an hourglass shape you want to show off – use a stylish belt at your waist to pull it in.

— LENGTH: Go for a little more length in the hem when you’re wearing skinny jeans. A bit of scrunching at the heels is a good thing. It’s stylish and it makes your skinny jeans NOT look like leggings!

When skinny jeans work, they really work. You can become a sexy, skinny jeans siren if you just give these tips a try. 
I’m here rooting for you!

4 ESSENTIAL SLIMMING STYLE SECRETS FOR CURVY LADIES… LOOK YOUR SEXIEST, MOST GORGEOUS NOW!

October 13, 2014 By TheLifestylista

SlimmingStyleashanti4 ESSENTIAL SLIMMING STYLE TIPS FOR CURVY LADIES… LOOK YOUR SEXIEST, MOST GORGEOUS NOW! See below for all the info! And remember, you’ve got a FUN, FREE FAT BLASTING 10 Day FITNESS CHALLENGE! CLICK HERE to SIGN UP for the Email Club: http://bit.ly/LifestylistaFBEmailClub so you get the LATEST INFO ABOUT THE CHALLENGE DIRECTLY IN YOUR INBOX! If you’re in the email club, you’ll get all the details first – including A SECRET PASSWORD to access all the free content!!!

Back to those 4 essential slimming style tips…

1) HIGHLIGHT WHAT YOU LOVE ABOUT YOUR BODY!
Use patterns and colors and accessories to draw the eye towards the parts of yourself you love the most!
So if you want to draw the eye away from your tummy and thighs wear DARK COLORS but if you want to accentuate your bust or your waist wear LIGHT COLORS e.g. a light top or a light belt to highlight those areas.

And big accessories can make you look smaller e.g. big bag, big necklace, big earrings, big bangles… I’m not saying wear them all at once!!! Just choose one element to highlight (e.g. the big necklace) and go for that!

2) BUY (OR MAKE) YOUR OWN SLIMMING UNDERWEAR
See my article on how to make your own Spanx… www.TheLifestylista.com (Health & Weight Loss section)

3) STRIPES GIRL! AND LINES THAT TAKE YOUR EYES UP / DOWN
Horizontal stripes draw the eye width-ways rather than length-ways and so they make us look bigger than we actually are.
Verticals do the opposite… Optical illusion: longer & leaner. Add a bit of cleavage too if you’d like. A V-neck lengthens you and a Polo neck squashes you 🙂

4) YOU DON’T NEED TO HIDE YOURSELF IN HUGE CURTAINS OF FABRIC…
YOU’RE A GODDESS!
I’m not saying go for tight-tight lycra pum pum shorts, I’m just saying that you are beautiful and you don’t need to hide!
Don’t wear ‘sack’ one size fits all dresses or big baggy T-shirts. Make sure there’s a bit of shape to it, a bit of ‘fitted-ness’, especially if you have a bigger tummy.
You’re fine to wear a Tunic top, Empire waisted top etc. something nice and flowy at the top as long as you’re wearing something tighter at the bottom to balance it e.g. a cute, dark pair of boot cut jeans.
See my article on how to choose flattering jeans… www.TheLifestylista.com (Style section).
and
Go for well cut clothes in fabrics that aren’t too flimsy. So YES to garbadine and linen and NO to thin polyester!

I’m here rooting for you girl. You are beautiful right now so be your most fabulous! Bring it 🙂

love,

A HOLLYWOOD STYLIST TRICK TO DRESS 10 POUNDS LIGHTER & TAKE ATTENTION AWAY FROM YOUR BELLY…

August 28, 2014 By TheLifestylista

TAg1colorslimmingstyleA HOLLYWOOD STYLIST TRICK TO DRESS 10 POUNDS LIGHTER & TAKE ATTENTION AWAY FROM YOUR BELLY… COMMENT GIRL! Vote “yes” or “no”! Is this something you want? Did you know that wearing two very different colors on your top and your bottom draws attention to your tummy area? BUT if you wear ONE COLOR (preferably dark not pastel) from head to toe you will appear slimmer because you will be creating one, long, vertical line that’s not interrupted… so it creates the illusion that you are longer and leaner than you actually are! Ha!
Always remember you are beautiful as you are.

I’m here rooting for you!

CONTROVERSIAL (& hilarious :-) FLAT BELLY SECRET: A QUICK EMERGENCY TRICK TO NUKE A BLOATED BELLY

July 18, 2014 By TheLifestylista

BloatedCarnivalTummyWHAT TO DO IF YOU’VE OVEREATEN and your BLOATED BELLY is sticking out like you are 5 months pregnant!

If you are already barely fitting into that sexy party dress, this bloated belly is the LAST thing you need!

Here’s how to bring the belly bloat down fast so you can keep flirting with the cute dude by the punch bowl!

WHAT TO DO:
30 minutes after you finish eating, go outside and go for a brisk 15 minute walk.

HOW DOES THAT HELP?
1) HELPS YOU GET THE GAS OUT: Your bloated belly is caused by your digestive system breaking down the food you’ve eaten. And, truth be told, when you don’t get rid of the gas (through parps or burps), it accumulates in your digestive system and causes bloating!

When you get your body moving, it helps you release the trapped gas in your digestive tract – this movement helps you get the gas out much more quickly than if you’d just stayed inside sitting down AND because you are outside having a walk by yourself you are free to pass gas to your heart’s content! Shameless private burping and parping is essential 🙂 LOL! WARNING: Don’t be dainty. HOLDING THE GAS IN WILL MAKE YOU EVEN MORE BLOATED… Just get it out and get it out quickly! This is especially important for us women because we are so often guilty of holding gas in (I’m an expert at this!).

2) HELPS DIGESTION: The brisk walk will get your blood pumping and so it’ll improve your circulation which will help you digest the food you’ve been eating.

I’m here rooting for you!

Want SPANX-like Slimming Shape Wear but don’t want to pay the big $$$?

May 12, 2014 By TheLifestylista

Artisan De Luxe jeansHere’s a homemade solution…
1) Buy a pair of (strong) control top nylons. They don’t need to be the expensive kind and they can be old and raggedy LOL!
2) Use a pair of scissors to cut the legs off. If the legs start to run, use some hairspray or clear nail polish to ‘seal’ it.
3) There you have it! You’ve made yourself some Spanx in the comfort of your own home and without spending a fortune. Now you won’t have any panty lines and your tummy will be flat(ter).
Just remember YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL… RIGHT NOW! With or without this slimming underwear!
Spanx are great because they make you look trimmer BUT be aware that if you go for shapewear that’s too tight, you may cause acid reflux or an upset stomach. The point is for us to LOVE OURSELVES MORE NOT LESS. These homemade Spanx are not an excuse for you judge yourself, they are a reason for you to celebrate and to pat yourself on the back for being clever & resourceful enough to make your own shapewear!

I’m here rooting for you!
love,
Kara
