Here's how to dress for success

“Even though you've dropped a few pounds, you don't like how you look. Here's how to dress for success.”

We've seen the fashion faux-pas - either women wear too tight of clothing in an attempt to seem thinner (which just ends up accentuating the weight that's left to lose), or they wear clothes that are too big to try to hide the weight. There is a third alternative: wearing clothes that actually fit - not hug, not drape. If you are one of the later, with oversized clothes, and you like the style of them, find a tailor or seamstress and have them altered. It's really not that expensive. If you're in the first category, you may just need to go shopping. If possible, take someone with you who will be honest (and not your sister who dresses the same way as you). For the best fit clothes should not require you to "suck in" anything to get it fastened. They should not be tight, overly loose, but "fitted." If something fits fairly well in all but one area, again, get it altered. By taking the time to find clothes that fit your shape, you'll be amazed at how just wearing the right clothes will make you feel so much more confident, worthwhile, and motivated
