4 Ways to Look Better in your Own Clothes

I'm sharing a couple styling tips I use myself. To be honest, it's not everyday I feel 100% in an outfit. It takes lots of trial and error to get an outfit right for an event, occasion, or the blog. When I don't feel like wearing anything but pajama pants, aka having an 'off' day, I use the following tips:1. Nude heels elongate the leg, making you appear taller.2. A Belt - Cinching the waist is the easiest way to creating shape.3. Pointed Toe shoes and boots - believe it or not, a pointed toe boot, heel or flat also elongates the legs, making you appear taller and therefore slimmer.4. Wear monotone colors - for example, wear a let's say black turtleneck with a black pencil skirt underneath a cozy shearling coat or colorful blazer. Instant slimming! No protein shakes, 35 min stair steps, or exhausting cardio required. Sound convincing?THIS designer was onto something, chevron is an incredibly flattering shape. See my  top chevron picks here.
