Look And Feel Your Best At Your Current Weight

JUST FOR TODAY:  Wear an outfit that flatters your current body size and structure.  Pick colors, fabrics and styles that help you look and feel your best!

Many people have several different sizes of clothes in their closet:  some are too big, some are too small, and some fit well.  Clothes which are too big can make you look bigger than you actually are.  If you're a size 10 but are wearing a size 12, the clothes might feel comfortable and roomy, but the extra fabric will give the illusion that you are actually a size 12.  Clothes which are too small can make you feel bigger than you actually are.  If you're a size 2 but try to squeeze into a size 0, you'll "feel fat" even though at a size 2 you absolutely are not fat!  The key is to find clothes that fit you well, at your current body size and structure.  Whether you are a size 2 or 10 or 22, pick outfits that help you look and feel your best.  Go through your closet, and remove the clothes which don't fit.  Put them in storage, or give them to charity.  Pare down your wardrobe to only the most flattering outfits.  Add to your wardrobe with a few new items.  Consider an image consultant to help you learn more about the colors, fabrics and styles that are ideal for you.  Some department stores (such as Nordstrom) offer a personal shopping service at no charge.  You can't instantly change your weight, but you can change how you look and feel by wearing the right clothes.  Look and feel your best today!
