In an effort to make this space more of a placefor sharing ideas andcelebrating Pro AgingI thought today I would share some of my favoritedressing tips for a curvy body type.
As someone who has had many body issuesin my pastthat came with a host of eating disordersthat stole years from my lifein their intensityI can say one of the many gifts of agingis making peace with my body typeand learning to celebrate my curves.
By this time in my life I know I'll never be as young as I am todayso it is timeto love the body I am in right now.I don't want to waste any more time bemoaning my body flawsrather
I want to celebratemy middle age self!
My first tip for dressing a curvy bodyPosture.This is something I am working on continually.When you feel sometimes that you are larger than lifethere are always two options
one to turn inward with bad posture and try to look smaller(which by the way never works)or head upand claim your sizewith great posture and head held high!
Next to posturegreat shape wearis the best investment!Money well spent on seamless shape wear is always the best way to start building an outfit!
A long continuous linewith a skimming not tight cutis always flatteringon almost all body types.
I have
raised my waist line with the tie topas my natural waist line is in flux these days.
The long body line is also extended with
a higher shoe beneath this wonderful cut maxi.
I always choose
accessories that are in proportion
to my size.Being larger enables me to go forbold dramatic accessories.
An oversized bag is always in proportionfor me.
