How to Pick the Right Skirt to Flatter Your Figure

>> Aug 11, 2012

With all of the different types of skirts available from minis to maxis, how do you know which one you should be choosing to get the right look and to flatter your figure? Here are some tips you can use to help you choose the right skirt the next time you go shopping.

It's all in the fit

The first thing you need to do is make sure that you are picking out a skirt that fits properly. If you end up getting one that is too tight it will cling to your thighs and hips and make you look like you're carrying more weight than you really are. If it's too large, however, it will feel uncomfortable and won't look professional. This skirt will also hide your hips and make you look sloppy and shapeless.

Before heading out to do your next shopping, measure your waist with a tape measure and pull it firmly enough to get an exact measurement. Take a measurement of your hips by measuring the fullest part. This should be done with your feet together while standing.

For the pear shape

Look for skirts that have a flair to them at the hemline and bypass the ones that are straight and narrow. You'll want to balance out your leg size and hips to make them appear slimmer.

For the hourglass shape

Find a skirt that flares from the hips with a flat front. You'll want to try to accentuate your hips so that you don't end up with a boxy kind of look.

For people with extra midsection weight

You'll want to get the skirt to draw attention away from your stomach area and down to your legs. Look for skirts that have pockets or other types of details around the thighs and hips to get people looking at your legs instead of at your midsection.

If you have short legs

People with short legs should be looking for a skirt that is darker in color to keep the attention away from the leg area. Wearing a light shirt with this skirt will also help to accomplish this goal.

If you have long legs

In this case you'll want to have the skirt and top match in color or at least complement one another in the same tones to highlight your legs. You can also look for a light-colored skirt and wear it with a dark shirt. This will definitely give your legs the attention they deserve.

NLP Coaching and Personal Development

/image:griyaterapisehat.wordpress.com/

‘Have you heard of NLP? I asked a friend of mine the other day. ‘What’ ? ‘N….L….P,’ ‘no, never heard of it’. Though it does not seem to have reached general public awareness, NLP has been around for just on 30 years. An internet search of those three letters will find, NLP websites, NLP books, NLP counselors, NLP business coaching, NLP cd’s and dvd’s.

The three letters stand for Neuro Linguistic Programming. Neuro, meaning our thinking, Linguistic, our language and Programming, referring to the way both of those program our personality and how our personal program can be changed for the better.

The founders of NLP are Richard Bandler, a mathematician, and John Grinder, a linguistics Professor. It is nearer to the mark to say these two ‘discovered’ NLP, because it is something we all do. One of their basic discoveries was that we all have a preference for one of three personality types: visual, auditory or kinesthetic(feeling). Our leaning towards one of these comes out in our speech. A person who thinks in pictures is more likely to say ‘I see’ or ‘I’ll look into it. An auditory person will say ’sounds good to me’ or ‘that rings a bell’. Kinisthetic people want to ‘touch base with you‘ and they often make decisions based on a ‘gut feeling’. These are not hard and fast rules, but research has shown that we all seem to operate out of one of these styles much more than the others.

Coaching supremo, Anthony Robbins, began his career with NLP. After doing the training he began using it, at $1000 an appointment, to help people overcome personality problems such as stage fright and phobias of various sorts. His book,’Awaken the giant within’ is still available and very handy as a laymans guide to NLP. Bandler and Grinder also successfully applied NLP principles to the needs of psychiatric patients and personality problems at the beginning of their work.

The business community was eventually attracted to NLP because the trained NLPer can perceive another persons predominant personality style in detail ,and adopt that style themselves to gain better rapport and hopefully a profitable business relationship.

A novel way to see one part of NLP in action, is to watch people being interviewed on television. Messrs Bandler and Grinder found that eye movement is connected to thinking. Visual people will look up when thinking of what to say next. Auditory people look from side to side and feelings people look down. Careful watching of people looking directly at the camera in interviews (not announcers who are reading a prompt) shows clearly what personality type they are.

A lot more is involved with NLP than has been mentioned here. Its growth is due largely to the fact that it works. Results with afore mentioned psychiatric and personality needs has been quite spectacular, with cures happening in days that years of other treatment had not helped. On the business side, many training organizations exist and many books are available.
