Looks that lose weight: take a size off with these summer outfits

Dressing well is not just wearing fashionable clothes or the color of the moment . Not even having absolute mastery when it comes to combining tones or patterns, or having a closet full of clothes and accessories. Dressing well is knowing how to take advantage of it and just as we can enhance our strengths and hide our flaws, it is also possible to get rid of a kilo with clothes.

It is important to start from a base: We have to love ourselves as we are. But, yes, just as with a haircut or the way we put on makeup we can get rid of years, with clothes it is possible to 'lose weight' and have under control those areas that make us complex, such as the tummy or the hips.

Accessories that stylize, trends that favor more or less, ways to highlight strong points and camouflage what we do not like so much. In short, style tricks to hide kilos, which stylize and make us look thinner by launching some tips that are universal. It is the power of fashion and clothing, two concepts linked but not the same.

We have selected different looks that bring together some of these tips, and with clothes that are in stores: some because they are basic wardrobe basics and others because this Spring / Summer of 2020 they are full trend. As always, these looks are to inspire you and then try your clothes and your style and see what suits you best according to your body and your tastes. Shall we start?

Little black dress

Black gets thin, that's how it is. And a black dress is an essential wardrobe staple to always be neat and stylize us a lot . A secret? A loose black dress that hides the shapes and that with a belt marks the waist, refining it. If you like your legs wear it mini.

Oversized blazer

A tighter minidress is not the best option if we want to hide our flaws but with an oversize blazer we will give a plus of style and elegance without marking anything.

Overshirt

Overshirts are worn a lot and are also allies to make us feel more confident and slim. For example with a top and shorts, like this look. It is a very stylish option if you don't like your arms for example.

Blouses inside

Whether you wear baggy jeans –such as slouchy or mom jeans–, or if you are more skinny, putting blouses, sweaters or T-shirts inside is the star style tip to look slimmer . Playing with volume on the shoulders is also a good idea and the puffed sleeve hides wide arms. Discover our style tricks to wear the slouchy.

Vests

Vests also allow us to dress in a tighter way without fear that those parts of our body that make us complex will be seen more than necessary. They combine with pants and dresses and are always stylish.

Wide trousers

If you have a thinner waist but you don't like to mark your leg, these types of elephant leg pants are all you need to stylize your figure and hide what you don't like. They also take a lot.

Blazer + jeans

We all have jeans that fit us like a glove. Well, if you combine them with a fitted jacket that highlights the shoulders, refines the waist and hides the hips, you will have a winning outfit for any occasion.

XL shirts or shirt dress

An XL shirt, like a dress, with a belt marking the waist will also 'visually' remove a few kilos and make us feel more secure.

Flare pants

Flare pants, whether they are a suit or denim type, lengthen the legs (for example, with wedges now in summer). Also, if they are high-rise, they hide their tummy.

Volume on the shoulders

Playing with the volumes of the clothing items draw our silhouette and can visually take off a few kilos. This puff-sleeved dress is the perfect example and with the XL belt we can show off a wasp waist.

Total black

If you want to feel very neat and simulate fewer pounds, this look is infallible. All black, the quintessential 'slimming' color, a long vest to hide the hips and flared leggings to style the legs.

Suits

Another key, similar to the previous one. The single-color jacket and pants sets also make us appear taller and more stylized. A good trick is to wear the jacket closed and leaving the neckline bare to lengthen your silhouette. It's a very versatile, off-road look that's always appropriate.

Waist 'paper bag'

The style guide for wearing paper bag pants is infinite, but always with a common denominator: they are stylish and 'slim' our figure. The excess fabric from the waist is its hallmark and combines with all kinds of garments (basic t-shirts, tops, blouses, maxi vests …).

Crop top jacket

Denim jackets are our great allies, especially at halftime, and their short version is ideal to look slimmer when, for example, we combine them with a dress.
