Reader Request - Minimizing Large Thighs

Greetings Fashion Friends,


I have a reader request from Ann regarding the following:

Hello,

Could you post some things that will help cover or minimize large thighs. It's my problem area and I don't see it getting resolved anytime soon.
Thanks,

Not a problem Ann. For most women, we all can identify at least one problem area on our bodies that seems to need a lot of attention or require the greatest effort to resolve. Having generous thighs can be a nightmare sometimes when you're going for a particular look. But don't fret, there are some easy solutions that can help minimize large thighs. Please refer to my handy tips below.




1. Draw attention to your upper body by wearing brightly colored blouses/tops or clothing that cinches your waist.

2. Try using body-slimming undergarments
- requires an extra "layer" of clothing but is worth the investment. How do you think celebrities look so great?

3. Avoid Tapered Pants
- they can emphasize the size difference between your lower and upper leg


4. Wear boot cut jeans because they even out the width of the leg

5. Choose A-line skirts or long skirts that don't cling to the body
