Fashion Tips – Playing With Proportion

February 26th // 2 Comments

One of the most important tips for figure flattery is how you use proportion and how you apply it to your body type. Skinny pants should most likely be worn with a looser top, and a bigger top should be worn with a skinny bottom. Check out this picture of Victoria Beckham wearing ultra skinny black leather pants and a faux fur jacket. She is petite, and this look works because it makes her appear taller and flatters her figure; the skinny pants elongate her legs and the jacket is cropped and hits her at the waist, the jacket adds volume around her shoulders but the proportions of the rest of her outfit still make her look lean and appear taller.

Check out some similar options after the jump, and play with proportions and flatter your figure at great prices!

    I like it. It’s funny, because when I first read the title, I thought you’d also talk about the sunglasses. To bring attention to her face, she uses oversized sunglasses, which really stand out on a smaller face. If she used a smaller pair on some of her Audrey Hepburn looks, she would be Miss Librarian. As it stands, most faces can do either oversized or smaller shades, it’s just a matter of the look one is trying to achieve! Let me know your thoughts :).
