The phrase I have always been telling myself whenever I dress myself up for an occasion (or even during ordinary days). I know I’m vain, but so what? On an honest note though, I have always been wanting to look skinny in anything that I wear. I believe it’s the main reason why I have A LOT of dark-colored pieces in my closet. Well, it’s March now but let’s be honest, we still have those fat gained during those holiday parties, visible. Don’t worry guys, I feel you. Like, seriously.
After all those merrymaking, getting back into shape just seems like a daunting idea. All those too-familiar feeling of holiday binge doesn’t seem to end, right? Don’t fret. Just keep on reading as I give you tips on how to fake and look skinny.
While we have a lot of social obligations to attend to, looking good (despite the added weight and inches) is still mandatory. By finding the right angle, changing your hairstyle, carefully curating your wardrobe, I’ve got number of ways to still look your best.
[box type=”shadow” align=”” class=”” width=””]1CHANGE YOUR HAIRSTYLE. Now is a great chance to start a new beginning – most especially with your mane. Choosing the right hairstyle can be the easiest way to take the weight off your face. You just need to choose a cut that’ll elongate your face rather than something that accentuates roundness. That’s just one trick to give an appearance of a slimmer face. Having said that, “avoid anything with a fringe or jaw-length styles”.[/box]
[box type=”shadow” align=”” class=”” width=””]2WHEN IT COMES TO ACCESSORIES, “GO BIG OR GO HOME!”
Big bags and wearing an oversized jewelry will make you look slimmer while higher heels will elongate your legs. However, when wearing larger than life accessories, one tip is, DON’T OVERDO IT! When wearing those, the key to avoid looking like a fashion disaster is by keeping balance in shape.[/box]
[box type=”shadow” align=”” class=”” width=””]3REFINE YOUR WARDROBE. As I was saying, it’s essential for us to choose an ensemble that flatters your body type rather than merely following the trends. I am not saying that you should not follow the trend though, just make sure that it compliments your body type, okay?

[box type=”shadow” align=”” class=”” width=””]4INVEST IN YOUR UNDERWEAR. I’m a firm believer that one of the important elements in a woman’s wardrobe is her underwear. Shape-wear is the easiest way to change your silhouette without you having to visit the gym. If you’re that girl going from lumpy and bumpy to smooth and slender, you need to choose the right underwear. “Hey! I’m your bestfriend,” says SPANX. Just make sure to fit everything before heading to the counter before it’s too late.[/box]
[box type=”shadow” align=”” class=”” width=””]5FIND YOUR ANGLE. How true is it that you’re likely 10lbs heavier or a few inches fatter in pictures? Well, learning which body parts to tweak and turn is the key to the winning shot. All you need to do is keep a straight back, tuck your bottom, keep your tummy in; place one leg slightly in front of the other, bending your back leg a little, and never forget to lift your arms slightly away from your torso. Facially, tilt your chin down and look upwards the camera. I’m sure you’ll be acing the next shot.[/box]
The temperature is on the rise and summer is just around the corner. Time to pack up and have fun under the heat of the sun. Summer is definitely on! What are you up to this summer?

You love horror movies right? I know you do. If you don’t, then what are you doing here? Get out of here, you scaredy cat! You call yourself a horror movie enthusiast? Well let’s test that! Am I taking this too long? Let’s unroll the list!
[dropcap]D[/dropcap]on’t act so surprised, Your Highness. You weren’t on any mercy mission this time. Several transmissions were beamed to this ship by Rebel spies. I want to know what happened to the plans they sent you. In my experience, there is no such thing as luck. Partially, but it also obeys your commands. I want to come with you to Alderaan. There’s nothing for me here now. I want to learn the ways of the Force and be a Jedi, like my father before me. The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin, the more star systems will slip through your fingers.
Still, she’s got a lot of spirit. I don’t know, what do you think? What!? I don’t know what you’re talking about. I am a member of the Imperial Senate on a diplomatic mission to Alderaan– What good is a reward if you ain’t around to use it? Besides, attacking that battle station ain’t my idea of courage. It’s more like…suicide.
You don’t believe in the Force, do you? Obi-Wan is here. The Force is with him. I call it luck. Look, I can take you as far as Anchorhead. You can get a transport there to Mos Eisley or wherever you’re going. What?! The Force is strong with this one. I have you now.

She must have hidden the plans in the escape pod. Send a detachment down to retrieve them, and see to it personally, Commander. [highlight color=”yellow”]There’ll be no one to stop us this time![/highlight] You’re all clear, kid. Let’s blow this thing and go home! Partially, but it also obeys your commands.
Dantooine. They’re on Dantooine.
He is here.
Don’t underestimate the Force.

I care. So, what do you think of her, Han? A tremor in the Force. The last time I felt it was in the presence of my old master. [highlight color=”blue”]But with the blast shield down,[/highlight] I can’t even see! How am I supposed to fight? Obi-Wan is here. The Force is with him. But with the blast shield down, I can’t even see! How am I supposed to fight? You are a part of the Rebel Alliance and a traitor! Take her away!

I can’t get involved! I’ve got work to do! It’s not that I like the Empire, I hate it, but there’s nothing I can do about it right now. It’s such a long way from here. Leave that to me. Send a distress signal, and inform the Senate that all on board were killed. I’m surprised you had the courage to take the responsibility yourself. No! Alderaan is peaceful. We have no weapons. You can’t possibly…
Your eyes can deceive you. Don’t trust them. He is here. What?! Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid. I’m trying not to, kid.
I’m trying not to, kid. I have traced the Rebel spies to her. Now she is my only link to finding their secret base. He is here. You are a part of the Rebel Alliance and a traitor! Take her away! Dantooine. They’re on Dantooine.

Hey, Luke! May the Force be with you. Kid, I’ve flown from one side of this galaxy to the other. I’ve seen a lot of strange stuff, but I’ve never seen anything to make me believe there’s one all-powerful Force controlling everything. There’s no mystical energy field that controls my destiny. It’s all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense. Remember, a Jedi can feel the Force flowing through him. He is here. Ye-ha! I have traced the Rebel spies to her. Now she is my only link to finding their secret base.

Oh God, my uncle. How am I ever gonna explain this? Look, I ain’t in this for your revolution, and I’m not in it for you, Princess. I expect to be well paid. I’m in it for the money. A tremor in the Force. The last time I felt it was in the presence of my old master.
All right. Well, take care of yourself, Han. [highlight color=”orange”]I guess that’s what you’re best at,[/highlight] ain’t it? Alderaan? I’m not going to Alderaan. I’ve got to go home. It’s late, I’m in for it as it is. The plans you refer to will soon be back in our hands.

I need your help, Luke. She needs your help. I’m getting too old for this sort of thing. Oh God, my uncle. How am I ever gonna explain this? Hey, Luke! May the Force be with you. No! Alderaan is peaceful. We have no weapons. You can’t possibly… As you wish. Look, I can take you as far as Anchorhead. You can get a transport there to Mos Eisley or wherever you’re going.
I suggest you try it again, Luke. This time, let go your conscious self and act on instinct. Dantooine. They’re on Dantooine. You’re all clear, kid. Let’s blow this thing and go home! I’m surprised you had the courage to take the responsibility yourself. I’m trying not to, kid.
