We cannot all be super models weighing 12 pounds. Most of us have to deal with that thing called life, which can do real damage to any diet. If you are a full figured woman like I am, there are ways to enhance yourself with outfits.

If you want to look taller and thinner, there are two areas that you need to focus on. The first is the type of clothes you wear. The second is the color of the clothes that go with your outfit. Here is a closer look.

There are many different ways of achieving a look when it comes to fashion. In our effort to look taller and thinner, we want to focus on one word. Verticality. The more vertical your look, the thinner and taller you will appear.

Color goes a long way to creating a look. With your outfits, a lack of color is the best starting point. We are talking black or dark blue from head to toe as the starting point. You can add color and accessorize later, but this is our starting point.

Okay, one dark color is not going to look so great. To spice things up, try a jacket with color. Go for a solid color without embellishments. Leave the jacket unbuttoned in the front to emphasize the vertical cut and your thinner appearance.

As any woman knows, accessories can make a look. This is also true in this case. Make sure you stay with the vertical theme. An excellent way to do this is to wear a scarf. Go with a long one and let it hang. This will make you look taller and thinner.

As a full figured woman, I have a thing for large, thick belts. If you are the same way, keep in mind such belts conflict with efforts to look taller and thinner. They tend to draw attention and defeat the look. Go with something thin.

Skirts are wonderful things if the correct strategy is employed. Short skirts should be avoided no matter how nice your legs are. To get the tall and thin look, only wear skirts that are longer than they are wide.

They say shoes make the man, but they are also critical to your efforts to look taller and thinner. A tall, thin heal is the best choice. The taller and thinner, the better!

Stripes are a word that can draw hisses from full figured women. In general, they do not make one look more petite. Certain outfits that have thinner vertical stripes, however, can. Horizontal stripes? Forget about them.

Unless you are a waif, you probably want to look taller and thinner. It really is not that hard if you follow these simple tips.
