Attending a conference full of cool kids. I'm a frumpy size 16, but I wear a lot of skinny black jeans and chunky boots, and need a slimming top to blend in with all the youngsters. So hit me with your best most flattering top to hide muffintops and sins? (This is a hip and cool conference with lots of photoshoots, so I need to not cry when I see the photos. Yes, and I should try to loose all that babyweight in 4 weeks...I know) Thank you for any tips!

I always find a good blazer can hide a multitude of sins and add some structure. Wear extra make up if you are having photos done, or a strong bright lip.

Shirts rather the clinging tops are better I find as they have more structure.

Why would you want to blend in? Go for a drapey vest top and short leather jacket.

I think, as much as new clothes make you feel good, your hair can lift your face and make you feel good. Get a new haircut or colour, get some bright lippie, and be unapologetically you!

You can look great as you are, without having to look skinny. The secret to looking good is carrying yourself with confidence.

Have a good time. The conference sounds great! Smile
