How to DRESS to LOOK SLIMMER | fixing 11 winter outfits

[@giedre]

Usually I get "accused" I can't be size L/XL (actually more towards XL now..) and even though I didn't get slimmer recently, but I really learnt how to dress to look so. It's not that we must aim to always look slim, but I personally think good outfit and proportions always lead to a better mood and self confidence, and I am so ready to take this step in order to feel my best :) Are you? Also please let me know what do you think about the sweater in step #2, should I keep it? Which outfit you liked the most? Are you tired of me talking about this topic yet? Let's chat!

[@mariakern6793]

all cool) absolutely not tired, it is super to see real average size woman with normal clothes, not some mode-show-podium super-slim models or super-stars-shoots in strange outfits - and you do not check any difference then, what the stylists try to explain.

[@mariakern6793]

#2 sweater - there are plenty variations to style it, and the color is yours, and animal pattern is also "in" now - so the last point for taking decision would be the composition of garment, if it is ok for you))

@@mariakern6793 thank yoy for your hinest feedback, it really means a lot to me 🤍☺️

[@giedre]

@@mariakern6793 wow such an on point answer, thank you! 🤩🤍 I found this knit in men’s dep.and the more I see it the more I like it 😅 yes, I always check the composition and really sometimes we pay only for the brand but sometimes it’s possible to get someting high quality but for affordable price 💃

I have been watching your videos and enjoying them. I wear L/XL and the outfits you show are just right for my size. Nice to see someone who understands what a woman of this size needs. Thank you

[@tanecdnes7218]

Hi Giedre, thank you for showing outfit ideas on a "normal body type" women in your videos. It is so much easier to understand the styling rules and get healthier view on ourselves - us "normal" girls/women :-). Thank you for the work you do! With love Renata from the Czech Republic

[@sussie9895]

Love how you change just 1 or 2 things as opposed to “cheating” and switching all outfits to heels. Very clear examples!

[@mbh3004]

I love your suggestions in this video. Would love more suggestions for “indoor styling” tips to look slimmer- when we are not wearing a coat or carrying a handbag.

[@giedre]

Best video yet! Not tired of this topic....keep these examples coming! You look amazing 😍

[@JOJO-ug9ei]

I do a lot of these suggestions. Most of the time I am fighting width. I used to think I couldn’t wear white, but it’s all about streamlining and proportion. If I wear one colour, it lengthens the body. One thing that bugs me is the ankle length jeans. They really don’t suit everyone, especially the curvier amongst us. Full length jeans are much more flattering, as you have discovered. Also, wide leg trousers with pleats look horrible on big hips. Flat fronted trousers are much more flattering but harder to find. With jumpers, I prefer the seams to be on the shoulder. The drop-shouldered jumpers emphasize my sloping shoulders and my body looks wider as there is no definition.

Ciao, Giedre! I don't like the sweater in look #2 because it has dropped shoulders, but I admit it looks good on you. So if it makes you feel confident, keep it! I like all the changes you made in the video, and my favorites are #4 and #6. I always really appreciate your videos because I see clothes worn by real people, and the subject matter never gets old. Thank you for all the work you do❤️

[@giedre]

I like how you made the outfits look better, and at the same time more sophisticated. I especially appreciate you showing the difference in the types of pants with straight and fuller legs! Your visuals and comparisons are always so helpful! Thank you! Great video! ❤👍🏼 👏🏼

[@msasharvlog]

nice

[@bettinabronisz6198]

You are fantastic. Love your tips regarding proportion and enjoy seeing your clothing choices. Since you asked, I'm not a fan of the sweater you showed in #2. I think it might be the purple color on you? It also looked too chunky. My opinion only. Keep the videos coming!!

[@giedre]

Thank you a lot for your feedback and your opinion! 🙌🤍 I’m not too sure as well, sometimes I get excited because it’s something different and it might qo really well or work out as a fail quite soon 😂

[@sfsf6768]

Another wonderful video. No you don’t look XL. Not tired of this topic. Just wondering about the side and back view with tucked in sweaters. Front view looks ok but I look like a balloon on the side and backview. Is there another solution?

[@giedre]

Thank you! Good to hear this! ☺️ Yes, you can always use a belt ant then pull out the sweater how you like. Please check this video where I explained it more in detail: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bInWdaingaetoc0

[@LiLi1961LiLi]

Grand Slam again my dear!!! I am going to try to find a dressy, pointed-toe boot, like in the first look…..but with a low heel. Looks great! Never thought about the double-breasted point. 😊

[@giedre]

Yay! So happy to hear this! And thank you so muck for sharing your thoughts! I found myself missing a really sleek and nice boot with a small heel, the ones I got has around 4cm heel which is really a perfect one to look elegant but still feel very comfortable :)

I may have missed your answer, but where do you find the ‘fake’ collar and shirt tails?

[@giedre]

@@emorygillespie499 please have a look on amazon 🎈

[@carolineyoung8748]

Yes, I'd also like to know so I could purchase them. 🙂

[@phoggee]

Can you link the slimmer trousers or tell me what brand they are?

[@stephanievanwaas7020]

Any suggestions where to buy the fake collar and fake shirt bottom! A decent one. Great ideas by the way.

[@giedre]

It's possible to find them in high street shops like zara, mango, H&M, Lindex, but at the moment I can't find them online except for amazon: bit.ly/4140xam

[@mireille1594]

On #5, I think that the first pair of pants look better on you than the brown pair.

[@giedre]

I like them too, but they are just too short on me. I have styled them with sneakers, looks better but still I would prefer slightly longer ☺️

[@kari0675]

Where do you find those long jeans? I'm size 46/48 and 180cm tall and I used to get all my jeans at C&A, as they used to have them available in three lengths, including the long one. Now there's just one length and it's too short for me. Moreover, most jeans models are high-waisted, which I'm not... Any recommendations?

[@giedre]

@@kari0675 omg I totally get you! i’m 176 but I have tried many many jeans and pants in order to find long enough length 😅 and I was so struggling 😅 The ones I’ve on are from Reserved but I couldn’t find them online. If you look online try searching for ‘full length jeans’ 🤍 also try checking out the brands that have ‘tall’ section like Marks&Spencer, Gerry Weber, etc. I hope that helps but deginitely I wish you patience and luck ☺️🫶

[@cb9825]

There is a tall youtuber who is always looking for long jeans, I guess most of the brands she discovered are shipping worldwide. I don't remember her name, will try to find her channel

[@cb9825]

It was Liz Seibert. She had quite a few short videos gushing about jeans for tall girls.

[@kari0675]

​@@cb9825Thanks, I'll check her out.

[@kari0675]

​@@giedreThank you. Frankly speaking, I don't like shopping for clothes online and then having to send everything back... I used to really appreciate M&S's range of sizes, unfortunately they've abandoned Central Europe, and shipping from the UK and then returning seems too much of a bother... I've got plenty of Reserved shops around, but I've never seen any jeans there that would fit me, everything's really short. What's more, I've noticed that they've shrunk their size range, and many tops are only available in sizes S, M and L. It seems to me that's a wider tendency on the market for the retailers to cater only for medium-sized and medium-height customers... :(

[@paulam5864]

No pleats, tuck in sweater for longer legs. Smaller shoes with a small to high heel. Too bad my feet won’t allow for narrow toe or heels.

[@monikal.4563]

Szeretemca videóidat, de szerintemcaz a válltöméses kabatfazon kifejezetten rosszul áll. Nincs más?

[@nevaklemenc1997]

Think more about the shoulders and the length of sleeves, wide sleeves on wide hips = no go! Think about neck and haircut. The whole body form should be harmonized....Everything counts. Basic rules are not complicated.

[@giedre]

Totally 🙌🤍☺️
