|Don't buy something simply because of a great price. If it does not flatter you, it is actually a bad deal. You'll end up donating it and that's just flushing cash down the toilet.

|Wear darker blouses and pants if you want to appear slimmer. Dark colors help emphasize your good parts and tone down the overweight extras you don't want people to notice. You should wear skirts with elastic waistbands if you are concerned about comfort.

}{Dress jeans up by wearing a dressy shirt and heels. Wear colored jeans if you want a more casual look.

}{Create a unique fashion style of your own. Try to be as unique as possible, so that you do not blend in with the crowd. It is up to individuals sometimes to create a style that people can appreciate and that others will follow.

}{Don't follow a trend just because it's "in." What looks amazing for a runway model might not look great on you. Follow your tastes, not whatever flavor is popular in the most recent fashion magazine. You are going to want to go with your gut on this. You won't be led down the wrong path.
