Tips to look thinner wearing stripes
Wear thin-striped prints
They will make you look chic and modern, this is a fabulous print that will not add any volume at all!
Choose shirts and blouses with simple designs
Oversized garments with stripe prints are not a good mix when you are trying to look thinner while wearing stripes. Choose simple and minimalistic designs for your blouses.
Wear your stripes with a dark cardigan
It will have a visual effect that will make your belly look thinner.
Wear a dark blazer with your striped shirt
Blazers have an amazing structure that will make you look taller and thinner, the form of your shoulders and waist will be more defined. Avoid wearing straight blazers. The darker the color the better.
Use high heels to make you look taller
It’s not a secret that heels make us look thinner, so if you like to wear that striped shirt and you want to look taller and thinner, high heels are always a good option.
Wear vertical striped prints
The vertical stripes pattern shouldn’t be wide, choose thin patterns.
As a personal conclusion, I firmly think that the most important thing you need to take into account when you’re choosing an outfit is to really love the clothes you own. It doesn’t make any sense to follow these rules is you don’t feel comfortable with the garments you wear! so, make a conscious decision of what is the image you want to project, and wear those garments that really make you happy!
