7 Ways To Look “Thinner By Dinner”

ways to look thinner

We all know there’s no magic pill for weight loss. But you could be doing yourself a disservice by not using simple tools and tricks to look smaller.  And most of these tips start working immediately or within a few hours. So start this morning and use these seven tips so you too can look “thinner by dinner.”

Show Some Skin Up Top

Expose a bit with a V-neckline. The open, upside-down triangle creates a high focal point up and away from your midsection and gives the illusion of a longer, slimmer upper body.

The more skin displayed between chin and chest (within reason!), the more elegant your proportions will seem overall; wider V-necklines visually balance broad hips and thighs.

So collect V-necks in everything from camis, tanks, Ts and sweaters to cardigans, dresses and jackets.

Accentuate Your Waist

A voluminous white tunic may sound like the antithesis to dressing thinner, but it can be surprisingly flattering.

“Define your waist with a skinny belt, “celebrity stylist Robert Verdi says.”And the farther you are from the floor, the skinnier you’ll look, so wear platform heels.” Remember to harness the power of slimming undergarments—they’re the sneakiest look-trim trick of all.
