The word curvaceous is now
being used to describe most of us. According to the
National
Eating Disorders Association, an average American
woman is 5'4" and weighs about 140 lbs. Despite all those
skinny
Hollywood celebrities and
models, some of the hottest stars right now are
curvaceous:
Vida Guerra,
Jessica
Simpson,
Jennifer Lopez (Jennifer
Lopez fitness),
Beyonce,
Eva Longoria,
Mariah Carey, and
Scarlett
Johansson. In other words, our style icons
represent us. So how can you look great by showing off
your curves? Read the simple tips below:

First and foremost, accept
yourself. It is totally stupid to compare yourself against
others. It is your body and you must like it. You can
workout,
diet,
put makeup on,
dress fashionably, etc. but you must love what you
have. Scarlett Johansson says, "I am curvy - I'm
never going to be 5'11" and 120 pounds, but I feel lucky
to have what I've got."
Stay away from baggy, loose-fitting
clothes in an attempt to hide your curves. You will
actually look ridiculous. On the contrary, show off your
curves by wearing well-fitted clothes. |
 Don't
wear very tight clothes either. A "muffin top"
(when you wear low rise
jeans and a
short top so
that the belly fat comes out) is not cool.
The key is to accentuate what is good and to
minimize what is not.
Choose darker or
neutral colors.
Stay away from light
or
sheer fabrics. Try thicker fabrics since they
add more support.
Stay away from high
necklines. The best option is to choose a U
or V neckline. Recommended:
