Hurra!! Har sååå lyst til å kjøpe meg slim-fit jeans å ha støvletter utenpå. Det er jo bare så sexy! Hot Hot Hot!
-Er dere enig i at dette er et bra valg for eplejenter?

Å "lage" en midje er vel egentlig tingen når man ikke har en (jfr motepolitiet). man ser faktisk tynnere ut når man kler seg litt trangt enn når man tar på seg telt.

Enig i det, hvertfall til et visst punkt. 😉 FOR trangt blir sjelden særlig bra.

Men angående omslagsfasong, er ikke det egentlig litt lite flatterende hvis man har eplefasong? Ihvertfall hvis det gjelder litt tykkere plagg som strikkejakker og sånt, da får man jo et ekstra lag som fyller opp rundt livet med omslagsklær. Jeg føler ihvertfall at noen omslagsklær gjør meg tykkere rundt livet, og jeg har fortsatt litt midje og ikke eplefasong.

Simplicity is your resort.
Apple shape looks better in simple designs, rather than excessive flounces and gathers. So always think simple style when hunting for new pieces to add to your wardrobe. The less fussy your outfits are, the more collected and outstanding you will look

Hm.. Enkel stil..?

Give your bust a boost
Always make sure that you have good bust support. Investing in well cut and well fitted bra is something you will never regret as it will transform your outline and you will look more together which will enhance your confidence in your figure

After you have mastered that, you can start playing your aces. Once you have created a shapely bust, you can now wear lower necklines to draw attention to it and away from your midsection. Bear in mind that wearing any tops with patterns only around the bust area will bring the eye up toward the chest and face.

Camouflage & reinvent the waist;
Your best move in that territory is to hide your tummy issues and to create new definition to your waist. You can try a surplice or crossed over style in tops or dresses to camouflage your problem areas. In your case wrap-around tops are your best friend.
A side stripe in your tops or pants will enhance the definition of your waist. A side-shirring in your tunic will visually create a waist.
Cinched waist tops and classically tailored jackets as well as any princess seamed dress will give you a great form. Its very important that you wear colors that will not make it easy for the eyes to figure out what’s happening in your midsection area, so keep it low with the very light colors and go for the darker ones.
For your bottoms, always consider medium-waist bands (not high or low waist) as this will help you in your definition mission since doing so will give you more flexibly and more space to play your top pieces in your favor.

Extend yourself
One of your most important tactics is to elongate your figure taking away from its rounded form. In the effort of trying to add length to your torso; don’t hesitate to wear anything with a halter neckline as this style will still support the bust. Longer tunics can elongate your compact torso as well.
Remember that your goal is to look longer and smaller on top. Darker colors on top will minimize and slim the torso. Wearing any top with too many patterns all over will make you look big and wide on top and that is one thing we never want to do.

You can always extend your neck by wearing V or scoop necklines or even showing a little cleavage which will help lengthen your whole upper body as well.

There has never been a better way to camouflage a thick middle more than this new fashion of frock tops or dresses that fall softly from the bust. A Frock is a garment consisting of a skirt with an attached bodice or with a matching bodice giving the effect of a one-piece garment.


Do not forget your high heels, whether they are classic or funky, they are always a good trick to add length and span to your figure.

Keep away from
Avoid anything figure hugging cloths; very fitted tops, tight skirts as well as too tight pants that show every bump are a complete NO NO. At the same time too loose, flowing garments like baggy T-shirts and shapeless dresses are not your items of choice, since they tend to make your body's shape appear even rounder.

Large checks and bold patterns on your skirts or pants is better put aside. Shiny fabrics that stretch around your fullest points do you no favors. Don’t wear tops with ruffles or pastel shades, thin spaghetti straps, delicate camisole tops or complicated necklines. Too High-waisted pants just create unwanted bulk, so stay out.

Steer clear from trousers with too much hip detail like flaps, studs, embroidery. Keep away from very gathered or full skirts, large pockets and jackets that finish at your widest part of hips as these will only point out that you have big wide hips and I am sure that this not what you want. The same thing goes for baggy, cargo and bulky pants.

If your belts were not simple, narrow and waist defining, do not wear them, other wise you will be adding centimeters to your waist instead of taking them off.

Empire styles are completely banned unless they add length to your figure. So if you go for an empire style top for instance, its must be long enough below the bust line to counteract the horizontally cut effect of the style.

Accessorize & getaway.
Drawing attention away from the midsection to the face, shoulder, and neck areas is a great approach for apple shaped ladies and the best way to go about that is by always investing in great looking accessories to take the look away from your midsection fullness.

Unlike the classic discreet taste that you must keep for your outfits, you can go all funky with your accessories. It will be totally alright for you to go for crazed taste jewellery, fun headgear, cool bags and shoes.

Outsmart your options
Generally classic outfits such as tailored suits, jackets and skirts in basic colors like black and navy are a good investment.

A shirt jacket that matches with a fitted tank top is a definite go for move. Wrap-tie blouses hid a tummy while showing off an elegant décolletage whereas belted Jackets help slim down chest and tummy. To give yourself a graceful drawn out outline, go for longish loosely fitted tops and look for suits that drape to the side. Sharply tailored jackets that skim softly over your hips are a great choice.

Flared and boot cut pants are great ways to balance out your upper half but thinner leg options should definitely be an option. When it comes to skirts go for something with a little bit of a flare or ruffle for balance and make sure to show off your slim ankles and calves. Keep to flowing lines by embracing A line skirts will succeed to draw attention away from the waist. Tulip skirts on the other hand will help create a definition for your waist.

Empire waist dresses will create balance and will disguise any areas you want to hide below your bust line but make sure that you have good bust support and coverage to pull it off. Choose a large bold print for your empire dress to keep all eyes on you whilst breaking up and slimming the figure.

For your tops, you must go easy on the colors seeing that you don't draw too much attention to all the wrong places but the good news is that below you can go mad with colors and patterns. Textures like chiffon and silk are great options for your skirts.

Flaunt those arms and legs
Usually apple shaped ladies are lucky enough to have those great legs and arms. Show them off with pretty skirts and 3/4 sleeve tops showing off your forearms which will detract attention from the full upper arms. In case you are on the more daring side, go for an sleeveless tops and knee length skirts to make the most of those beautiful God given gifts

Jeg liker heller ikke omslagstopper. (Har nå erkjent at jeg er et eple.) En ting som fungerer bra er topper som strammes under brystet, og faller løst over magen. Jeg er veldig usikker, men jeg lurer på om det kan hete empireliv? Denne kjolen, som Angelique har lagt ut til salgs, innbiller jeg meg at ville passet min fasong. Den ser ut til å sitte løst over livet, samtidig som den fremhever bysten.



Det verste jeg ser er når man lager seg bulker. Stramme topper over bukse som er for stram rundt livet. Det er MANGE epledamer som kjører den stilen. Det er fryktelig.

DER har jeg nettopp funnet et nytt triks som virker kjempebra for meg!!

Løsningen min er å bruke en glatt singlett under topper i mykt tynt stoff! Da tar singletten å utligner valkene slik at de ikke vises på toppen jeg har ytterst. Nesten som et viskelær. Lell om den ytterste toppen er kroppsnær. Visker rett å slett bort valkene.


Men de omslagstoppene jeg har gir mye ekstra stoff rundt magen synes jeg..
