Alternatives to a tunic top?

9 replies

Killerqueen2244 · 23/07/2017 22:15

I'm carrying left over baby weight on my lower stomach so am looking for some style tips? I've lived in tunic tops (mainly White stuff) and leggings for waaaaay too long cause I'm trying to hide my jelly belly so would like a change!

Any suggestions for a style change for day-to-day clothes that would hide lower belly fat? I'm mid 30s and feeling like I've lost my way with my style- I need some ideas/places to buy from while I'm working on reducing the wobble! Smile

I love long denim shirt dresses. Fitted or loose.

I've never considered those but I think it's cause I've always stuck with 'what I know', or rather what I think looks ok! Thank you for the suggestion, I'll try a few on when I'm next out shopping!

I've found skater style dresses to be the best fit for covering up the flabby bit that I still have since having dd.
They have a seam around my slimmest part and then skim my not so slim bits.
I sometimes wear them with leggings if it's a bit cold out.

High waisted skinny jeans with floaty tops? This is my house style. Although I've recently started to wear dresses again, have lost a bit of weight but mainly it's the control pants helping the wobbly tummy! Wrap dresses are particularly flattering I find...

I too love a skater style dress, either with bare legs or thick tights. They are very flattering for my figure as I have big boobs and a bit of a tummy, imo they give the illusion of waist.

Thank you all for your suggestions, I appreciate the advice! Do any of you have favourite shops that you buy a lot of your wardrobe from?

Skater dresses or tea dresses are the best, fit around your boobs and then loose 😊 either that or skinny jeans with a long-ish top x

Oasis is my No1.
