Cinch it! Want to look like you’ve lost an inch or two without hitting the gym or even breaking a sweat? Most women want to know the secrets to whittling their waistlines without going on a diet. Whether you’re statuesque, petite, plus size, or simply average, we got you covered! And oh while your shape-wear can easily give the illusion of a tinier midsection, we have some simple ways to create a more streamlined silhouette. Yup, it really is that easy

Belt it up

Belts are a style must and give you the illusion of a waist even when you don’t have a defined midsection. Adding a belt to anything from a shift dress to an oversize sweater can have a big impact on your look.

 Bum bags

Hit two birds with one stone with a fanny pack.  Free your hands from clutching a bag and get your waist cinched and accentuated!

Wear corsets

No, not the rib cage-crushing type women wore before. Replace your belts with modern corsets to help highlight your shape and add some edge to your look.

 

 

Peplums

Peplums as extensions on tops and dresses are a great way to define your waist. By flaring out from the waistline, you create an illusion of a more cinched midsection. Yes, please!

There is an abundance of charm and beauty in this city, I’ve made it a point of duty to explore this in depth over the course of 5 weeks and to share it with you all. The highlight of my moments being the interaction with locals, their warm embrace towards me and my platform, they invited me into their homes, communities and shared their stories with me. A reoccurring topic was the waste and litter that flooded their surroundings, I felt rather inadequate, as it seemed such a huge issue to tackle, I remember thinking “where does one begin?”, aside the doubts that initially overwhelmed me, it definitely inspired me to want to be a part of that change. It’s all my heart thinks about. ❤️
