The 'Looking Good' section of our site is packed with resources and tips to help you pull off the shoes of your dreams! Having slender, toned legs; a great figure and a wardrobe full of nice outfits always helps! We fill this page up with the tried and tested books that have helped us too. A slender pair of legs can make or break a dress/shoe combination and pulling off your favorite looks often depends on staying in good shape!
Lower Body Makeover
We all have the right to feel good in our own skin. You'd be excused, however, for sometimes feeling bummed out and washed up! We all have periods in which we have less time on our hands to workout and look after our appearance. Pulling on a beautiful pair of Summer shoes and looking at a slender, toned figure in the mirror gives a fantastic buzz to anyone! Get your legs in shape this Summer with Joey Atlas' 'Lower Body Makeover' - (this guy is practically a God to us!). His book is basically a blueprint for shifting cellulite and extra weight from the thighs, bum and legs (which can be the most stubborn areas on our bodies!).
In our opinion the major pros of the Lower Body Makeover are a) Joey understands exactly what we go through with feeling lumpy and/or flabby when we're unhappy with our legs. His book is targeted towards teaching the simplified science behind targeted removal of fat from the bum and legs. And b) (like most other books) he doesn't simply use each page to endorse the local gym advising you to exercise non stop. He teaches the science, and appropriate techniques to help us slim our lower body down using largely pain free strategies! Visualise your stunning legs in a sexy dress in 3 months time and get started today!
A Solution to an Age-Old Problem - Finding Jeans that Flatter Your Figure!
We consider this to be one of the biggest obstacles to looking good in clothes! Most of the women we speak to and observe wear jeans that don't fit right. Afterall, the manufacturers have to produce jeans to standard specifications and if we don't meet these, well, we pretty much have to make do! That means if your waist, thighs and butt don't meet a particular measurement (or their ratio differs from the manufacturers settings) then you're in with a problem. You shouldn't worry though... 94% of women are wearing jeans which don't properly flatter their figure. This is why we love anything that helps us solve a dilemma and look better at the same time! Have a look at the picture right below to see the enviable 6% of women who fit most jeans right off the rack!
According to a survery (we think the true percentages may be higher!) 37% of women say their butt is an issue in jeans; 29% say they have problems with jeans on their hips; and 11% say they are shorter than 5 feet 2 inches tall. All of these women have terrible trouble finding a pair of jeans that look good. We are NOT all the same shape!
Being able to pull on a pair of jeans and feel sexy is practically a God-given right! Find a pair that truly flatter you, and get started today!
The Fashion Bible
By now you should be equipped with a slender body, great fitting clothes and your pick of this season's must have shoes. Well, what more could there be? Last but not least, our final recommendation - our 'Fashion Bible'. We've read A LOT of books that claim to help women dress well. Most follow a one-size-fits-all approach assuming that all women will look good in the same outfits. Well, small differences in our shape and skin tone, for example, can have a huge impact on whether we attract attention (for the right reasons!). The book is packed with tips on choosing the outfits and colors that will look great on your body, and it's specially orientated around picking the right shoes (our favorite!).
