These 3 words typically do not go together but sometimes it just takes a little more creativeness or simply finding the right colors or style to pull it off. We all want to be relaxed, slim-looking and comfortable when we go out while at the same time turning some heads as well.
No one gets too much respect showing up somewhere looking like a hippie straight from the burning man festival. However, even going on a hike in the woods can be a little stylish with just the right combo.

Be Creative & Casual with Some “Extras”
It is quite easy to change a boring, and somewhat relaxed outfit into something totally different just by adding some chic sunglasses or regular glasses, trendy belt, jewelry, hat, or even some type of a scarf.
Slimming it up with Accessories
Everyone feels a little thick around the torso every once in awhile depending on what they have eaten or just how they feel that day. It is quite easy to just add an accessory to appear slimmer for the inquisitive public eye.
Scarves: Whether it be hips or shoulders, a scarf is fantastic at concealing whatever you want. If you use a pattern or color that is appeasing to the eye, it might take away from other places. It is also good at tying up the waist to bring in any unwanted girth.
Big up top: This one might be a trick on the eyes. However, wearing a big, shouldered jacket that is pretty prominent and noticed around the upper body along with skinnier pants or jeans can trim you up.
If, however, you’re looking for a step up from an ordinary jacket, a great solution can even be something such as Gartenhaus Furs Coats if you’re aiming at being elegant but casual.
Sucking it in with Belts: The amazing belt has been around since the itty bitty waists of the Marilyn Monroe era and continues to be the go to in order to slim up the body.
- Grab a larger sweater and suck it in hard. Then belt it up around the waist, while the rest of the sweater keeps flowing down your back. This also helps with some skinnier jeans to show off the legs.
- Be a cowgirl and grab your biggest buckle you can muster. Then grab your low rise jeans and then suck in a big breath while buckling yourself into a thinner you. This bulky belt interestingly takes away from your waist size.
- Grab a large blazer or a coat and button it all the way up and tie your belt around your natural waist. If you want to be a little more saucy, you can open it up at the bottom or top.
- Grab your bulky winter coat or an elegant fur parka hood jacket and then suck in a breath while buckling up the belt. Using a belt with a bigger jacket can remove any extra bagginess or bulk and accentuate your natural waist.
Eyeglasses: By choosing the right pair of glasses, the face can actually take on different shapes and angles. If a person has more of a rounder face, the most important thing is to choose a pair of glasses that can add some angles to it.

Hats: Hats can be just like eyeglasses and either hinder the already rounded face or help take away from it. A good rule of thumb is to never have the crown of the hat wider than your cheekbones and also have a higher brim with a taller crown.
