The best under garments can make all the cloths look good on you. In terms of panties, nothing is more unflattering than seeing panty lines under your slacks!! That’s especially true in the summer when you can get a double whammy…actually seeing through light white pants as well as having the textural bulge that some underpants give!! I am a huge fan of thongs!
For some people they take some getting used to and some are more comfortable than others. You’ll have to try them and see how you feel. They make visual and texturally bulging panty lines obsolete…great for your look in clothing. As for bras, it’s a great idea to get your bra professionally fit! This may sound a bit bizarre but there are great women out there who do this for a living in lingerie shops.
You would be surprised at how many women walk around wearing the wrong bra size for years!! A bra too small around the back provides bulges that look ugly under sweaters or t shirts. Cups the wrong size result in bulging if too small and lumpy wrinkles and gathers if too big. Anyway, once you have the proper size, here are some things to look for.
Go for unadorned and seamless cups. (While lace and rosebuds are awfully pretty, they don’t permit fabric to lay smoothly). I love the bras at Victoria’s Secret that are unpadded but nonetheless have opaque, shaped cups like the IPEX demi bra. I recommend you take a look at their web site for some ideas or stop into one of their stores and try some different styles on. Here’s tips…try the bra on and put your top back on to really see how it looks!
Own a variety of different bra cuts…one more plunging, one with race backs, one with narrower straps, one strapless, etc because different tops and dresses call for different bra styles. Get a couple of the basic style and then one of each additional style should do it! You just never want your bra or its straps to show!
I understand your problems because, at 5′5 and 120 pounds you are probably a size 6 and size 6 clothes are not designed for DD breasts. First, buy a great minimize bra that offers lots of support but also visually reduces the size of your chest. Avoid knit tops or any other type of form fitting top.
Blouses will be better for you, either tucked in or worn out. You will look like you have a gorgeous and curvaceous figure but it will help take the emphasis away from your breasts. Tops that are blouson will also be great on you. Avoid high scoop neck tops…they make one’s chest look bigger! V necks (but not plunging) and button down styles will be best. Darker colors on the top are also a good idea, with lighter bottoms. I’m not sure you need more hip but you haven’t provided those proportions.
If you’re back measures 34 then your hips should measure 34 or more. You need more hip if the number is less than 34, only. Wearing A-line skirts and pleated skirts will make your bottom appear wider. Avoid tight, straight skirts if you want more hips. Wear light colored bottoms with dark tops because light makes things look bigger and dark makes them smaller.

There are plenty of basics you can pick up that there’s no need
to pay the extra to obtain a “design name.” From the outside no
ones going to know they aren’t designer and no ones going to
see the label so their a safe bet!
Items such as white jeans, flirty skirts, cotton T’s, crocheted
shrugs, or shorts can be purchased without the designer name.
Also watch for T’s put on sale by some of the big online
retailers for as much as 50% off. Bluefly.com quite regularly
puts DKNY and Rebecca Beeson T’s on for a serious reduction in
price.
Looking fresh like they just came off the rack is important. If
you purchased budget items then you’ve save quite a few dollars
so once they start looking not so fresh get rid of them.
Shoes are another arena where you can save some money. No need
to buy designer. Most important is fit and comfort, and of
course you need to be certain they’ll work with your wardrobe.
This season the wedge, as well as flats for the summer season,
are in style so have some fun. If you shop carefully you can
add several pair for the price of one pair of designer shoes.
Lastly you can save a whole lot of money on your jewelry.
Costume jewelry is affordable and the selection is great. If
you stick to costume jewelry you can buy pieces for this
seasons fashion and not feel bad because you spent too much and
they are out of style next year.
There are many good online store with very reasonable prices.
Don’t forget to have a hunt through your old jewelry as well –
you might be surprised at what you find that has made it back
into style. Large clunky jewelry is certainly in. As is wood
and bone jewelry. Color is making a big statement this year.
This is a very fun season because just about anything goes
provided you complete your look.
If you need to get some ideas for the spring season – this
months women’s magazines have some great articles and examples.
Vogue, Elle, and In Style are all full of excellent fashion
pages.
So don’t fret, you can look like a million dollars on a shoe
string budget with a little creativity and hunting! Make your
fashion statement!

We all have it in our closets. Black – the universal color that
mixes and matches with anything. Black makes us look good, while
covering up figure flaws. And that’s good. Black has its place
in our fashion hearts. But, now it’s time expand our wardrobe
options into colorful uncharted territory.
Are you ready, ladies? Here are the new color combinations that
will spice up your wardrobe and get you away from reaching for
black when you may be in a mood for something a little more
adventurous.
Chic Color Combo: Brown and Pink
Brown is a great alternative neutral to black. A brown pair of
pants or a brown skirt with a pink top is a nice feminine look
that is warm and inviting.
Chic Color Combo: Navy and Orange
Navy is traditionally paired with white or red. But let’s think
outside the box a bit and go for a navy suit with an orange
blouse or tank top. Wear navy shoes for a traditional look, or
shoes with orange accents for a little fun.
Chic Color Combo: Burgundy and Red
For a casual look that has a wow impact, pair a burgundy top
with a red sweater, jacket or hoodie. Wear with jeans.
Chic Color Combo: Charcoal and Yellow
Charcoal is a dark gray color that’s a step away from black. It
goes great with cool toned colors but I bet you never thought
about pairing it with yellow. Try a yellow sweater or sweater
set with charcoal pants or skirt.
Chic Color Combo: Chocolate Brown and Baby Blue
Baby blue is a nice, soft blue color that looks good on most
people. You can wear a baby blue top under a chocolate brown
blazer or sweater. Soften that brown suit with a baby blue
blouse or knit top.
