You know something?

Girls have been fretting about how they look in almost anything since time began. Why do you think most, (almost all) women have so many clothes? Why does it take them ages to look fabulous?

I don't want to make light of what is, really a very serious problem. But one more thing every girl has in common is a list of reasons why they don't look as good as they want to.

But, here's where all girls are divided. Between those that never get it and are miserable and those that keep trying, until; they get it just right.

Have fun. Don't give up and never become dispondent.

A high per cent of genetic females have a female shape to start with! The majority have hips and a butt! I don't, therefor it's harder to make it work for me. So I never get it because I have a body shape of a man to try and work with!

I really sorry if my comment sounded critical. What I was trying to say is, you just need to keep working at it.

OK, I know it's easy to say and so many other things, but at the end of the day, that is all you can do. Because that is all any girl can do. Every girl.

Once again, I really wasn't trying to be critical. Never give up or let yourself be dispondent. We have a number of such beautiful women on here who started looking like hunks. We also have a number of georgous guys who started looking like princesses.

Perhaps i shouldn't have said anything. But a number of posts just seem to be getting themselves more depressed. Never give up.

Have you looked at foundations?  Yes, GIRDLES.  It really helps the waist/hip ratios because they are designed to prod, encourage, shape your body to something approaching the classic female form.  Many women who wear dresses use them because even genetic women rarely match up to the "ideals" published in the clothing mags.  Most are of new, breathable fabrics that don't get quite so hot.  Heck, whalebone is even illegal now.  I have seen articles in Allure on padded panties since J lo and the Kardashians helped bring booty in vogue. Just a suggestion.     

At Work: 95% of the time Dress or Skirt (Heels 100%)
Going out: 100% of the time Dress (Heels 100%)
Causal: 50% of the time Dress or Skirt (Heels 50%)
Home: 0% (Well I don't do the house or mow the lawn in heels)

For me, dresses hide your....aaarrrhhh....."ding-dong" very well 

If I leave the house (besides the gym) I wear make-up to certain degrees.

If they're long enough!

I've always been super challenged in this area - of dress- . Even in the days when I dressed as a boy. (good lord. That was in the last millennium) Just couldn't get the colours or patterns right. Still can't.
Well. On my way to Canberra last week I stopped into Goulburn and had a personal fitting of several dresses by this well trained woman, and WOW !!!! She introduced me to a set of legs I never knew I had before. And as for that LBD (little black dress) size 16 she picked out. I didn't realise it was me in it. Me? In a size 16? Never bought anything that small before. At least she was very polite when referring to my dress style of my selection of day wear. "I should dress, age appropriate" was her comment. I think she really meant, STOP looking like your grandmother!!!!
Dress solution ? If you can't cut the cake, get an expert to cut it for you. Wow it makes the difference. I'm still flabbergasted. Try it. At least take a friend who has some dress sense.
My next visit, she'll pick out 5 items that can be mixed and matched to make the wardrobe last a week or more without repetition.
Come on girls .... lets rise to the challenge. LOL
Be safe, well and happy
Lotsa luv
