Let’s be real, it’s not hard to look expensive by putting on the big logos and taking a photo in front of a Porsche.

But when it comes to dressing like the old money, it’s all about subtleness.

As the saying goes “Money talks, but wealth whispers.”❤️

For me, dressing like old money is more of a lifestyle.

It’s all about nurturing elegance, taste, and femininity in a lifetime. In a world full of trends, old money remains classic.❤️👇🏼

Update: I just added a classy styling trick to roll up your jeans, make sure you stay till the end Love x!



Old money element 1❤️👇🏼:

Wrap the tie sweater around the shoulder (Oh so preppy)

I just can’t help but include this pin below, the sweater around-the-shoulder all-white look is another level.

*Obsessed*


2. Have a good posture❤️👇🏼

As the saying goes, “A good stance and posture reflect a proper state of mind”.

Ladies, posture matters when it comes to dressing like old money or simply looking high class.

Let’s imagine, with a hunched back and an arched spine, how we can carry the dress elegantly and confidently?

So always keep your head up and tummy sucked in, walk at a moderate pace and this is how we boost our confidence instantly!

My weird tip:

GOOD POSTURE old money

There are tons of ways to fix hunchback and for me, one of the easiest ways is simply carrying a handle bag.

Trust me, it is ridiculously simple yet effective!

3. Avoid BIG brand labels❤️👇🏼

Obviously, old money avoids designer labels.

They run as fast as they can when it comes to the big, flashy designer logo.

Storytime:

When I was a teen girl, I always wondered why some of the designer brands’ products just didn’t show the logo.

new money outfits
Source: Pinterest

Not until this year, my friend (As a SA in Blueberry) told me that those products catered to the old money’s needs while big logo products are targeted to the younger group of customers.

So obviously, the oh-so-lucrative-and-smart designer brands have two lines of products targeting different groups of customers in order to maximize revenue.

SAME BRAND, DIFFERENT STYLE❤️👇🏼

Admittedly, I still own some brand logo bags, but I do try to minimize. (I mean, it’s hard to buy a Chanel bag without the classic double C right?!)

As for the big logo products, it’s a BIG NO-NO.

It can easily look flashy, and it appears to others that you are trying to seek validation through the clothes you wear.

For some people, not throwing all big logos over the body can be hard.

But I can almost guarantee you that once you take this tip into practice, you will be amazed at how free you feel.

A Fendi logo monogram sweater and a big H belt?

No, you are good.❤️


Example 2: Two different styles from Tory Burch down below👇🏼

They don’t have to prove they are rich by showing the brand logo all around.

Instead, they just want to keep things low profile and private and THAT’S how they differentiate their group from the rest of the crowd.

Here are some of the essentials if you want to dress preppy ♡ Enjoy!

4. Wear natural fiber instead of polyester❤️👇🏼

When it comes to clothing, we always pay attention to the design instead of the materials.

And that’s a trap.

If you have ever wondered why your big fluffy coat still can’t keep you warm in the winter, probably because the material is mostly polyester instead of warm fiber like wool.


Just created this natural fabric list for your reference, pin this for later <3!

natural fabrics to dress elegant

Not only is natural fiber more functional, but it also makes your clothes look more structured and sturdy.❤️

Here are some of the natural fiber that makes your clothes look more classy and elegant:

  • Wool
  • Silk (Truly flattering & feminine! )
  • Camel hair
  • Cashmere (Best for winter!)
  • Organic cotton and bamboo
  • Make sure you smell good with natural deodorants and perfume

So ladies, you now have many other choices instead of wearing polyester!

Let’s not forget that natural fiber is a more sustainable way to support fashion as well!

Old money aesthetic 5: Cashmere cardigan❤️👇🏼

The classy zipper design, the mock neck, and the material – clothes from Lilysilk are truly unbeatable in this price range.

Obsessed.

5. Dress in low-saturation colors❤️👇🏼

Instead of vivid, high saturated, bright colors, they tend to wear natural colors.

Need I say more? This silk blue shirt is to die for.

OLD MONEY AESTHETIC HUES❤️👇🏼:

  • Black
  • Beige
  • Khaki
  • Creamy white (Obviously)
  • Dusty green
  • Sky blue

If you want to wear bright colors, think of the muted version of the hue, and you’re good to go.

Not only do these colors look more natural and closer to the earth’s tone, but they are also less noticeable than bright colors like shocking pink.❤️

That means you can wear that sweater many times without people remembering it.

After all, old money dresses for comfort instead of secretly hoping people pay attention to their clothes… and practicality❤️.

If you wear old money, I’m sure you will still look in style when you look at the photo ten years later!


Old money elements 6❤️👇🏼:

Belted blazer with midi pleated dress

Seriously, ladies, try this combo out as this look has not yet been discovered by TikTok. (Finger cross)

luxury outfit classy
Old money on a budget pick:

If this dress is not classy, I truly don’t know what is. Simple but unique sleeve design to layer with a blazer.

Shop NORDSTROM for this beautiful dress!
The asymmetrical hemline is so leg forgiving.

6. Wear Tailor-made clothes❤️👇🏼

I know many of you may think tailor-made clothes are something luxurious and only the flirty rich people can afford.

Well, not really.

To begin with, wearing fitted clothes is basic etiquette.

Unless you have a model figure, at some point in time, we just have to visit the tailor.❤️

As a pear-shaped girl, my trousers are always too long if I want to fit my thick thighs.

Storytime❤️👇🏼:

For the longest time, I tried to cuff the trousers.

It’s not super good, but at least it works!

Last year, I finally visited the tailor and tried to see if there were better options.

It turns out my trousers look perfect and they hug the curves of my leg so well!

It makes my leg appear longer, and I always feel so smart and confident in wearing them.

When it comes to tailor-made clothes, it’s just another level.

Visiting a tailor doesn’t mean you have to spend a few thousand bucks, instead, you can pay for a little amendment to make your clothes more flattering!

I don’t know how to convince you but all I can see is, it’s worth it.

Iconic look: Wear a scarf in not some common way❤️👇🏼

You wear scarves not because it is fall season, you wear them because they polish your outfit tenfold without screaming the brand names.

At the end of the day, an old money outfit is ALL ABOUT DETAILS.❤️


7. Make sure your clothes are structured and crease-free❤️👇🏼

Using a steamer is probably the easiest way to look expensive on a budget.

quiet luxury outfit ideas pink top
One of my favorite bloggers @the.la.way

As my mum always said, “A $20 H&M top can look better than a $110 designer top with just a steamer.”

I just can’t agree more.

The wrinkled shirt just tells people:

A. you are in a rush

B. You just don’t care about the presentation of your clothes and you are probably the “get away with it” type of gal.

If you are reading this till now, I’m sure you don’t want either of them.

In the days that many people are just too lazy to iron their clothes, a crease-free shirt can already make you set apart from others!

PRO TIP❤️👇🏼:

Always use the mini iron for a hassle-free life.

This one from Amazon is compact yet powerful.

2025 Update❤️ :

3 of you e-mailed me for some cheaper “old money”alternatives.

Well, it’s really hard…

I’ve picked some $50 below dresses – check out my LTK post (dresses) & LTK post (tops) here! ❤️

Disclaimer: I have to be honest, the quality aren’t the best given that price range, but if “Looking” classy is what you want, those dresses work! ❤️

8. Sporty classy old-money outfits❤️👇🏼

I think the video explains more here.

Seriously I feel so rich just by watching this video. Anyone?

Obsessed with the yacht with the family look.

9. Rich people shoes❤️👇🏼

If you don’t have a budget, at least invest in your shoes.

Old money values quality more than quantity.

how to dress preppy
Source: Pinterest

Instead of buying 10 different pairs of heels, one or two pairs of high-quality heels are more than enough.

Yes, those shoes may cost you more than the average, but let’s remember how many shoes we wear once and dare not to wear them anymore.

We’ve all been there ladies!

To get IT shoes, you should always pay close attention to the fabric and the sturdiness.

We all know the ladies who dress gorgeously but barely walk in their Valentino heels.

That’s not elegant at all.

Investing in your shoes and even getting them custom-made is so worth it, you feel confident and comfy and that’s the foundation for you to conquer your day!

SUMMER OLD MONEY SHOES❤️👇🏼

While many people aren’t aware of it, old money does love wearing espadrilles wedges.

Summery yet elegant.

If you have a higher budget, the aesthetic brand Castañer is for you bougie girl.

I think they will raise the price in the near future, so check them out now! It’s not that expensive yet.

WINTER OLD MONEY SHOES❤️👇🏼

For winter, Sperry’s boots are as high quality as they look feminine and aesthetic. love it.

I’ve owned 2 pairs and I wear them e.v.e.r.y. y.e.a.r.

This is so random… BUT

  1. Your body is a masterpiece that carries you through life’s journey—honor it with the love and respect it deserves.
  2. Beauty has no single definition; you define what beauty means through your uniqueness and authenticity.
  3. Your worth extends infinitely beyond your appearance—your kindness, strength, and spirit are what truly shine.
  4. The space you occupy in this world is yours by right; never apologize for existing exactly as you are.
  5. Your body tells the story of your life—every mark, curve, and change is a chapter of resilience and growth.
  6. You deserve to speak to yourself with the same compassion and tenderness you would offer to someone you love.
  7. Nourishing your body and soul isn’t selfish—it’s a necessary act of self-respect and care.
  8. The parts of yourself you’ve been taught to hide may be exactly what makes you magnificently unique.
  9. Your body is not a project to be fixed—it is a vessel for experiencing the fullness of life’s joys.
  10. You are allowed to love yourself completely today, not when you reach some future version of yourself.

9. Never underdress or overdress on the occasion❤️👇🏼

Yes, the dress code this year is still a thing.

quiet luxury outfits
Source: Pinterest

Dress according to the occasion in a manner that will never go out of trend.❤️

Surprise surprise, with the bombard of Instagram fashion bloggers, we sometimes can overdress.

We can for sure dress in a cute little black dress with heels during date night, but when it comes to family gatherings and hiking, let’s do sneakers or other more comfortable wear like a loafer.

As a petite girl, it takes me a long time for me to realize I always wear heels for the wrong occasions.

The worst part?

The painful high heels truly ruin my mood for an outdoorsy day under the sun!❤️👇🏼

All in all, following a dress code, is a sign of sophistication.

It’s subtle but again, the people can tell.

10. Wear delicate accessories instead of the chunky one❤️👇🏼

Last but not least, let’s not forget accessories.

As Michael Kors said, “I’ve always thought of accessories as the exclamation point of a woman’s outfit.”

Accessories do play a huge role in completing our look but should that mean we should wear as much as we want?

Not really.

To your surprise, despite the fact that old money collects lots of high jewelry, they just don’t showcase them all around.

Instead of wearing those big diamond jewelry, they wear delicate earrings or necklaces and that’s it. If you don’t pay close attention, you don’t even aware!

When it comes to accessories, less is always more.❤️

FINAL THOUGHTS❤️👇🏼:

black girl rich outfit ideas

“Classy is when a woman has everything to flaunt but chooses not to show it”.

To your surprise, dressing old money doesn’t necessarily mean dressing up like a queen or princess every day.

Rather, it’s about being subtle yet captivating.❤️

So ladies, let’s free ourselves from the brand name logos, cause we deserve more.

THANK YOU for taking part in this body positivity little act!

1. WEAR HIGH-RISE JEANS TO ALLEVIATE THE MUFFIN TOP❤️👇🏼


While it’s brutal, for most of us, we just don’t look the best in our low-rise jeans.

Trust me, I’ve tried countless low-rise jeans in my life, but every time I look in the mirror…

No, just no.

As the lower belly is usually bigger than the upper belly, the low-rise design is too easy to spill over our love handles.

And guess what? Even if you have a flat belly, the low-rise cutting just “creates” a muffin top when you sit down.

So always opt for high-rise jeans that safely cover your tummy.❤️👇🏼

2. WEAR FITTED JEANS THAT HUG YOUR CURVES❤️👇🏼


This tip is nothing fancy but you know what, many people still fail to buy fitted jeans, especially us ladies!

high neck top and blue jeans

Most of the time, while we logically know Size M jeans will make us feel much more comfortable around the hips and thigh area, we just “somehow” buy size S jeans

… and confidently hold the faith that we will shed the extra pounds away.

Yes, I know it sounds craz,y but some of the ladies (aka me) do think in this way.

Sometimes, we are so rigid that we limit ourselves to a certain size and refuse to size up even though the jeans are obviously too tight.

At the end of the day, that will make your muffin top way more obvious!

There is nothing classy about wearing a pair of jeans that will squeeze your belly all the time.

So ladies, I know it’s har,d but this year, SURRENDER to the right size.

If you are reading this blog post till now, there’s one thing for sure…

You have good taste! <3 If you approve of some of these looks, please kindly pin or share some of these outfits so many tasteful fashion babes can come across this outfit inspo, thanks pretty! ❤️

And…it would truly mean the world to me if you stay until the very end. ❤️


3. How to tell if the jeans REALLY fit❤️👇🏼


I actually added this new point as I received a few emails asking me how to tell whether the jeans really fit or not.

A lady said to me – that it’s not that she intentionally wants to size down, but she simply doesn’t know how tight is “too tight”.

I get it, the confusion can be real especially when you are trying on skinny jeans. Sometimes it even feels like it is normal to be that tight.

But hey girls, here’s the indicator:

If you are seeing the “smiling line”, those jeans are probably TOO tight and you have to size up.

Below is an example❤️👇🏼:

If you are seeing these major draglines across the front crotch area, guess what, they are probably those evil jeans squeezing your muffin top as well.

Don’t buy it.


According to Revelle Blog, there are other useful ways to test the jeans!

A. Finger test❤️👇🏼

If you can fit two fingers between the front waistline and your belly area, that’s a good sign!

how to wear jeans too big
Follow @hannahnfashion for more styling tips <3
  • More than two fingers = too big
  • One finger = too tight

B. Take a seat to test the crotch area❤️👇🏼

If that’s uncomfortable, think again.

This is so random… BUT

  1. Your body is a masterpiece that carries you through life’s journey—honor it with the love and respect it deserves.
  2. Beauty has no single definition; you define what beauty means through your uniqueness and authenticity.
  3. Your worth extends infinitely beyond your appearance—your kindness, strength, and spirit are what truly shine.
  4. The space you occupy in this world is yours by right; never apologize for existing exactly as you are.
  5. Your body tells the story of your life—every mark, curve, and change is a chapter of resilience and growth.
  6. You deserve to speak to yourself with the same compassion and tenderness you would offer to someone you love.
  7. Nourishing your body and soul isn’t selfish—it’s a necessary act of self-respect and care.
  8. The parts of yourself you’ve been taught to hide may be exactly what makes you magnificently unique.
  9. Your body is not a project to be fixed—it is a vessel for experiencing the fullness of life’s joys.
  10. You are allowed to love yourself completely today, not when you reach some future version of yourself.

4. CHOOSE THE RIGHT JEANS WITH A THICK, NON-STRETCHY FABRIC❤️👇🏼


Texture and fabrics matter.

Always avoid thin, elastic fabrics like cotton and milliskin.

These clingy fabrics tend to stretch across the belly area and make your muffin top appear to look even bigger.

This stretchy leggings above are so comfy and flexible to wear, but you better pair them with a long tunic top!

And no, sis, even dark blue leggings can still show the lower belly pouch.


As a perfect alternative, think of high-quality quality thick, non-stretchy fabric like twill and thick cotton.

plus size jeans

Instead of forming shape around your belly and squeezing the love handles out, they are thick enough to “suppress” our belly fat and help us contour our waistline❤️.

Compared the traditional denim jeans, the texture of legging jeans tends to be thinner so you may want to avoid that.


Trust me, the thick jeans just hug and flatter your midsection in a much better way.

How to identify how stretchy the jeans are?

If you are doing online shopping, make sure you check the product description and check the material.

For stretchy jeans/jeggings, the material content should be something like this:

 47% Cotton, 39% Polyester, 15% Elastane

For sturdy jeans (Take this Levis’s jeans as an example), the material content is:

69% Cotton, 23% Polyester, 7% Viscose, 1% Elastane

TAKEAWAY:

The lower percent of polyester and elastane, the more structured the jeans are.

FUN FACT:

The classic straight-leg sturdy jean is the go-to in every French women’s closet. If you are aware, they seldom wear jeggings!


5. REPLACE A JEAN’S WAISTBAND❤️👇🏼


If you have an apple-shaped shape body figure like me, you will realize how hard to buy fitted jeans.

When it fits your waist, the trouser legs are too wide, and vice versa.

So most of the time, we end up buying a pair of jeans that flatter our legs but suffocate our bellies.

If you are experiencing this, you should consider replacing a jeans waistband with an elastic waistband.

To my surprise, it’s so easy to do!

But I do suggest leaving this to the tailor; that won’t cost you that much!

It’s not the easiest thing to do but waistband replace literally avoids all the daunting experiences when you put your jeans on!

Considering how often we wear a pair of jeans and how long we wear it, I am confident to say this is the best investment that makes your life easier!


6. Create your one-of-a-kind jeans!❤️👇🏼


Need I say more?! This idea is dope.

Seriously, whether I have a muffin top or not, I will certainly DIY the jeans like this!!!

Don’t let the waistband define you; re-create your waistband.

*Feeling empowered!*


7. Try pull-on high-rise jeans❤️👇🏼


If you don’t know pull-on jeans, girl, you are missing out HUGE.

Instead of doing the annoying zip or buttons, pull-on jeans feature the hidden elastic comfort band to smoothen your curves in the best possible way.

8. OPT FOR PEPLUM TOP TO COVER YOUR MUFFIN TOP❤️👇🏼


Despite choosing nice jeans, let’s not forget our tops play a major role in covering our muffin tops as well.

But the question is, which top should we choose?

My all-time favorite is always the peplum top.

Not only it’s classy and elegant to wear, but the design can also completely hide the whole love handle area and even create a high waistline on top of that.

I don’t know about you but whenever I want to fake a hot body, a peplum top is my ultimate mood booster!❤️

Sorry to disappoint you girls, but I am definitely the Amazon girl more than the Net-a-porter girl when it comes to the casual top.

I just discovered this peplum top from Zara – bought it!! For more styling tip, check out my fashion ig @hannahnfashion – see you there loves!

After searching for hours for good reviews, these three are the ones I recommended. Not the average peplum top!

My other favorite combo – wearing a corset top with jeans. I see them as shapewear with aesthetic design.

9. Stylish way to hide the muffin top❤️👇🏼


If you are here, you probably looking for some stylish way to cover a muffin top besides wearing a tunic shirt right?

GOT YOU SIS.

Trust me, this tube top and oversized shirt combo are too stylish that no one will ever think your intention is to hide the muffin top.

Not a chance.

half tuck jeans outfit idea

For casual days, definitely do a half-tuck rather than a full tuck with the shirt.

Not only does it look effortlessly chic, but it also draws eyes vertically and breaks the horizontal tucking line.

As a result, the muffin top is easily distracted!

More of a “looking taller” tip:

If you want to wear a belt, matching the color of the belt and top in similar shades definitely helps to elongate your figure and look more put together.


10. Hide the muffin top in jeans in winter❤️👇🏼


I mean it, wear the sheer tights under the jeans when the days are chilling out.

Seriously, I do think that’s my secret hack as I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone talking about it!

muffin top jeans outfit
Source: Who What Wear

Alright, so here’s my thinking process:

Not gonna lie, wearing shapewear definitely helps control the muffin top.

But hey, when I am wearing jeans, there’s a high chance I don’t have to look super put-together that day.

If I just want a little boost and to make extra secure, wearing sheer tights underneath works!

Most of them have a tummy compression design these days – The effect is not as aggressive as shapewear but they do the job!

I still love my not-so-sturdy jeans, so layering them with tights is the best way to go.

1. Roll the sleeves to elongate your figure❤️👇🏼

I’m shocked that people don’t do this trick enough as it’s such a stupid easy one to elongate your figure.

Roll your sleeves a turn or two can always draw eyes upward and elongate your figure visually just like what cuffed jeans do.

I will always do the three-quarter (3/4) or the below elbow length so I can still hide my flappy upper arms area. Lovely.


Feel heavy in a sweater and flared jeans? Well, showcase your wrist out!

Yup, ladies, a little detail can make you look sleek tenfold!

2. When in doubt, a thin belt❤️👇🏼

We all know adding a belt can contour our figure but well, NOT all kinds of belts can serve us right.

If you are the petite plus size, definitely swap the thick belt for a thin one.

As the chunky belt creates a block rather than a sleek division line for the body, it’s not helping at all.

If you want a stylish twist, chain belts are having a moment these days.

A beige shirt dress with a nose gold chain belt just looks so aesthetic. LOVE it. ❤️

Need I say more? This lady is screaming the classy vibes to the fullest.

I love how she matches the belt and boots in the same hue – it just looks so put together! ❤️


3. The Corset belt is the plus-size godsend❤️👇🏼

A chic way to dress a plus-size body? Corset belt.

While they are thick, they hold a structured shape and hold all your curves in the right place.

So yes girls, whenever I want to fake an hourglass body, this is the one I go for.

I mean, a white dress shirt and a black underbust corset? How chic is that look?

Together with a sleek low bun and a nice pair of nude heels, gal you are reading to hit the town.


And guess what, a black monotone look is equally flattering!❤️

This belt is just as forgiving as they are effortlessly stylish!

4. Plus size summer outfit ideas: sheer kimono❤️👇🏼

When it comes to plus-size outfit ideas for summer, all we need is flattering, cute, and gorgeously lightweight outerwear that serves our curves right.

Source: 1,2

That said, nothing is better than a sheer long kimono. I love them for 3 reasons.

  • You can wear prints in a flattering way: the sheer fabric lowers the color contrast of the prints and thus minimizes the exaggerated effect❤️

  • If you want to wear light summer hues like white and pastels, a sheer kimono just gives you extra coverage.
  • Plus, that can really spruce up the look.
  • Long-line outerwear like kimono can always elongate your figure and make you look put together

So yes, that’s definitely a plus-size summer fashion essential.

Without a doubt.

5. Waterfall cardigan plus size are the flattering choices❤️👇🏼

As for the plus-size outfit ideas for fall, long-line outerwear is a must-have item.

But if you want to take a step further.

Go for the long-line waterfall cardigan that can draw eyes vertically and flatter the plus-size figure.

Below are my handpicks from Amazon, you will not believe it takes me half an hour to filter out the bad quality ones.

6. Opt for a structured fabric that holds your body on point❤️👇🏼

I know, soft fabrics are comfy and lightweight but sometimes they aren’t the best choice to flatter our curves.

plus size outfit ideas styling tips
Source: 1,2

Fabrics like chiffon, cotton, and other synthetics, just easily show all my fat rolls out instead of holding our figure.

I mean, even a supermodel can’t look good in a cotton bodycon skirt sometimes.❤️

plus size styling tips all-black outfit

I will always go for strong, supportive fabric like denim, tweed, jacquard, and a woven dress that can slightly hold up the shape.

And surprise surprise, the lightweight fabric like silk and satin looks nice on the plus-size as well, their shimmering finish just perfectly distracts attention.❤️

High-quality fabric makes a long way sis!

7. Asymmetrical top and dress for elongating effect❤️👇🏼

Not only are they stylish, but inverted and asymmetrical hemlines help draw eyes upward visually.

Compared to the regular hemline that just cuts the legs horizontally, these unique designs above certainly look way better in achieving the leg-elongating effect.

So if you want to shed down the heaviness of the lower body, well, you know what to wear!

For a semi-formal event, just add some gold accent and jewelry here and there and you’re good to go!

8. Peplum top to cover mid-section❤️👇🏼

How to hide belly fat in a dress? The peplum top is here to help.

Featuring the flared stripe of fabric around the waist, this is how you fake an hourglass shape without sucking your tummy.

Searching plus-size outfit ideas for work?

I’d say illusion dress.

Featuring the black color block stripe on the waist area and the sexy S line, these dresses help to distract from figure flaws greatly.

If you want to look professional with a hint of sexy? This is the one.

Only focusing on plus-size dressing to look thinner? Why not harness the power of color illusion? The chic monochrome look.

Putting yourself in the same color scheme just makes your figure look united and promotes the elongating and slimming effect.

To pull off the chic monotone look perfectly, I’d say play with different fabrics and textures.

If you are wearing a white knit sweater, pair it with beige denim pants to give it some different dimensions.

11. Keep your look simple with two hues❤️👇🏼

If monochrome is really not your thing, what about keeping your look simple with only two colors, that can greatly help as well.

Strategically speaking, matching your hat and shoes in the same tone can always elongate your figure from head to toe.

For the petite plus size out there, ALWAYS match your bottom and shoes in a similar shade to maximize the effect.

12. Best necklines for plus-size❤️👇🏼

I talk about necklines ALL THE TIME as that can really make and break a look.

Below are my honest thoughts about all the different necklines.

  • Round neckline❤️👇🏼 (NOT FLATTERING, that makes my chubby face look even bigger. Plus round neck looks too youthful and casual for me)

  • V-neck and square neck❤️👇🏼 (MUCH BETTER CHOICE, V line can elongate your neck and make you look slimmer)

13. H-shape skirt is more slimming than an A-line skirt❤️👇🏼

H-shape dresses like pencil skirts look way more slimming than the A-line skirt.

If you wonder why is that, think triangle and a standing rectangle.❤️

Even though they are both the same height, the rectangle always looks taller visually isn’t it?

If you really want to wear an A-line dress, perhaps consider a less dramatic design.

A sweet pleated midi skirt is always darling.

A knee-high dress is not flattering as it brutally highlights the calf area.

Go for the midi dress (mid-calf) dress and instantly you will feel so much better.

Is that just me but I always look visually taller in a midi skirt.

I guess that’s due to the wrong cut-off point for the knee-high dress.

15. How to wear prints as a plus size❤️👇🏼

Can you wear bold prints in plus size? HELL YES.

plus size animal prints outfit ideas
Source: 1,2

Here are the tips to look slim in your darling printed dress.

  • Prints with less color contrast❤️👇🏼

If you are wearing an all-over print dress, you can always minimize the boldness by picking the right color combo.

For example, the dark green prints on the light green dress look more slimming than the red prints on the stacked white dress.

Plus, I personally think a similar color scheme just makes things look more classy and tasteful. Do you girls agree?

  • Team bold prints with solids❤️👇🏼

If you really want to style attention-drawing animal prints, that’s fine as well! That said, remember only one statement for the look.

Less is more.

Team it with solid hues like black and navy blue just calm the whole look down and make you stay smart and sleek.

17. Best shoes for cankles and thick ankles❤️👇🏼

Again, below are my honest thoughts on shoes.

  • Round-toe shoes (NO GO. That make the legs look so thick)
  • Pointy shoes (HELL YES for the leg elongating effect)
  • Ankle boots (Wear them with tights rather than cuffed jeans for a slimming look)
  • Cut-off boots (No one mentioned that but they are so forgiving! I will always pair black sheer tights with them.)
  • Ankle strap heels shorten legs (Especially the thick strap)
  • Nude heels (Lovely choice for longer legs)
  • Spaghetti strap sandals (Sexy and slimming – the thin strap is way easier to carry)

18. Hats for big heads❤️👇🏼

If you find yourself looking awkward in a beanie, you are not the only one.

Sometimes we just have to realize some hats are not serving us right.

If you have a round face shape, avoid those sloppy hats that fail to add height to your face.

Instead, pick those wide-beam hats that have the elongating effect and create a smaller face by comparisons.

The last tip, if you want to wear a beret hat, definitely wear it on the side rather than on top of the head.

For example, if you are a chubby face girl like me, switch the choker necklace to a long Y-necklace that just elongates your neck effortlessly.

And for the earrings girls, picking the long-line earrings can work wonders as well. It just makes your face look slimmer by comparison.

❤️ 2025 Update ❤️

I’ve finally started my LTK account @hannahnfashion and I just created a post dedicated to plus size baes.

The dresses that I’ve picked tick all the boxes below. (In case you want something extra forgivinggg)

  • ✅ Showcase the feminine neckline
  • ✅ The ruching details hide the belly
  • ✅ Asymmetrical hemline draws the eye upward and elongates the legs visually

I’ve also included my hidden gem – a peplum belt from Walmart. Check out my post here & please follow for more styling tips❤️!

Love you girls!!

20. Carry a structured bag instead of a slouchy big bag❤️👇🏼

I never thought about bags before, until one day my friend just said: “Can you please stop wearing this HUGE tote bag, it just makes you look baggy.”

clothes & slimming tips that flatter a plus size figure
Source: 1,2

That’s brutal but true.

If you are already wearing a tunic top and slouchy mom jeans, wearing a big shoulder bag is not helpful at all.

If you can’t size down your bag (The crazy shopping and errands days), at least pick a structured bag.

Trust me, that alone makes a big difference.

FINAL THOUGHTS❤️👇🏼:

So ladies, here are the 20 clothes and tips that can flatter a plus-size figure.

It takes me a LONG time to figure out these tips myself so I truly hope this article can serve as the styling shortcut for the plus-size babes out there.

Let’s also take time to remind ourselves that our curves are beautiful.

Instead of hiding it, they deserve to be present in the most gorgeous way ♡♡♡

As Hayley Hasselhoff said, “At the end of the day we are all trying to feel comfortable in any type of size – plus size or not“.

Shine bright girl.❤️

Before you leave, can you please take a moment to share this pin below?♡

That really helps support the plus-size community promote curvy beauty and spread the message: 

Fashion is not only for skinny bitches!!!!! (Oops… I guess I split it out LOL)

But when it comes to dressing like the old money, it’s all about subtleness.

As the saying goes “Money talks, but wealth whispers.”❤️

For me, dressing elegantly is more of a lifestyle.

It’s all about nurturing the taste, and femininity in a lifetime.

In a world full of trends, old money remains classic.❤️👇🏼

Update: I just added a classy styling trick to roll up your jeans, make sure you stay till the end Love x!


1. Maintain healthy skin and body❤️👇🏼

Fun fact:

The most popular old money nail design is, you guessed it, French nails.

Simple, classy, and sophisticated.

Before talking about the iconic looks, let’s take the fundamental thing RIGHT.❤️

The truth is that old money realizes how health plays an important role in their quality of life.

And guess what, a lady in Ralph Lauren but with rough hair and bad skin just doesn’t convey the old money vibes at all.

Agree?

Here are some quick tips on that:

  • Maintain thick and shining hair with bi-weekly deep conditioning and sulfate-free shampoo
  • Nurture your body skin by applying the body lotion and hand cream

  • Get your eyebrows trimmed to look put-together
  • Keep your nails clean (Many ladies overlook this point)

If you are fond of clean beauty like me, here’s my iHerb recommending list.

Here are just a few tips, but I’m sure you get my point!

Trust me, people can spot that!


Elegant fashion element 1❤️👇🏼:

Tie the sweater around the shoulder (Oh so preppy)

I just can’t help but include this pin below, the sweater around-the-shoulder all-white look is another level.

*Obsessed*


2. Have a good posture❤️👇🏼

As the saying goes, “A good stance and posture reflect a proper state of mind”.

Ladies, posture matters when it comes to dressing like old money or simply looking high class.

Let’s imagine, with a hunched back and an arched spine, how we can carry the dress elegantly and confidently?

So always keep your head up and tummy sucked in, walk at a moderate pace and this is how we boost our confidence instantly!

My weird tip:

There are tons of ways to fix hunchback and for me, one of the easiest ways is simply carrying a handle bag.

Trust me, it is ridiculously simple yet effective!

3. Avoid BIG brand labels❤️👇🏼

Obviously, old money avoids designer labels.

They run as fast as they can when it comes to the big, flashy designer logo.

Storytime:

When I was a teen girl, I always wondered why some of the designer brands’ products just didn’t show the logo.

avoid big designer logos
Source: Pinterest

Not until this year, my friend (As a SA in Blueberry) told me that those products catered to the old money’s needs while big logo products are targeted to the younger group of customers.

So obviously, the oh-so-lucrative-and-smart designer brands have two lines of products targeting different groups of customers in order to maximize revenue.

SAME BRAND, DIFFERENT STYLE❤️👇🏼

Admittedly, I still own some brand logo bags, but I do try to minimize. (I mean, it’s hard to buy a Chanel bag without the classic double C right?!)

As for the big logo products, it’s a BIG NO-NO.

It can easily look flashy, and it appears to others that you are trying to seek validation through the clothes you wear.

For some people, not throwing all big logos over the body can be hard.

But I can almost guarantee you that once you take this tip into practice, you will be amazed at how free you feel.

A Fendi logo monogram sweater and a big H belt?

No, you are good.❤️

They don’t have to prove they are rich by showing the brand logo all around.

Instead, they just want to keep things low profile and private and THAT’S how they differentiate their group from the rest of the crowd.

Here are some of the essentials if you want to dress preppy ♡ Enjoy!

4. Embrace natural fiber ❤️👇🏼

When it comes to clothing, we always pay attention to the design instead of the materials.

And that’s a trap.

If you have ever wondered why your big fluffy coat still can’t keep you warm in the winter, probably because the material is mostly polyester instead of warm fiber like wool.


Just created this natural fabric list for your reference, pin this for later <3!

natural fabrics to dress elegant

Not only is natural fiber more functional, but it also makes your clothes look more structured and sturdy.❤️

Here are some of the natural fiber that makes your clothes look more classy and elegant:

  • Wool
  • Silk (Truly flattering & feminine! )
  • Camel hair
  • Cashmere (Best for winter!)
  • Organic cotton and bamboo
  • Make sure you smell good with natural deodorants and perfume

So ladies, you now have many other choices instead of wearing polyester!

Let’s not forget that natural fiber is a more sustainable way to support fashion as well!

Elegant aesthetic 5: Cashmere cardigan❤️👇🏼

5. Dress in low-saturation colors❤️👇🏼

Instead of vivid, high saturated, bright colors, they tend to wear natural colors.

Need I say more? This silk blue shirt is to die for.

OLD MONEY AESTHETIC HUES❤️👇🏼:

  • Black
  • Beige
  • Khaki
  • Creamy white (Obviously)
  • Dusty green
  • Sky blue

If you want to wear bright colors, think of the muted version of the hue, and you’re good to go.

Not only do these colors look more natural and closer to the earth’s tone, but they are also less noticeable than bright colors like shocking pink.❤️

That means you can wear that sweater many times without people remembering it.

After all, old money dresses for comfort instead of secretly hoping people pay attention to their clothes… and practicality❤️.

If this dress is not classy, I truly don’t know what is. Simple but unique sleeve design to layer with a blazer.

The asymmetrical hemline is so leg forgiving.

6. Wear Tailor-made clothes❤️👇🏼

I know many of you may think tailor-made clothes are something luxurious and only the flirty rich people can afford.

Well, not really.

To begin with, wearing fitted clothes is basic etiquette.

Unless you have a model figure, at some point in time, we just have to visit the tailor.❤️

As a pear-shaped girl, my trousers are always too long if I want to fit my thick thighs.

Storytime❤️👇🏼:

For the longest time, I tried to cuff the trousers.

It’s not super good, but at least it works!

Last year, I finally visited the tailor and tried to see if there were better options.

It turns out my trousers look perfect and they hug the curves of my leg so well!

It makes my leg appear longer, and I always feel so smart and confident in wearing them.

When it comes to tailor-made clothes, it’s just another level.

Visiting a tailor doesn’t mean you have to spend a few thousand bucks, instead, you can pay for a little amendment to make your clothes more flattering!

I don’t know how to convince you but all I can see is, it’s worth it.

Iconic look: Scarf is your best friend❤️👇🏼

You wear scarves not because it is fall season, you wear them because they polish your outfit tenfold without screaming the brand names.

At the end of the day, an old money outfit is ALL ABOUT DETAILS.❤️


7. Make sure your clothes are structured & crease-free❤️👇🏼

Using a steamer is probably the easiest way to look expensive on a budget.

quiet luxury outfit ideas
One of my favorite bloggers @the.la.way

As my mum always said, “A $20 H&M top can look better than a $110 designer top with just a steamer.”

I just can’t agree more.

The wrinkled shirt just tells people:

A. you are in a rush

B. You just don’t care about the presentation of your clothes and you are probably the “get away with it” type of gal.

If you are reading this till now, I’m sure you don’t want either of them.

In the days that many people are just too lazy to iron their clothes, a crease-free shirt can already make you set apart from others!

PRO TIP❤️👇🏼:

Always use the mini iron for a hassle-free life.

This one from Amazon is compact yet powerful.

2025 Update❤️ :

3 of you e-mailed me for some cheaper “old money”alternatives.

Well, it’s really hard…

I’ve picked some $50 below dresses – check out my LTK post (dresses) & LTK post (tops) here! ❤️

Disclaimer: I have to be honest, the quality aren’t the best given that price range, but if “Looking” classy is what you want, those dresses work! ❤️

8. Sporty classy old-money outfits❤️👇🏼

I think the video explains more here.

Seriously I feel so rich just by watching this video. Anyone?

Obsessed with the yacht with the family look.

9. Old money shoes❤️👇🏼

If you don’t have a budget, at least invest in your shoes.

Old money values quality more than quantity.

Instead of buying 10 different pairs of heels, one or two pairs of high-quality heels are more than enough.

Yes, those shoes may cost you more than the average, but let’s remember how many shoes we wear once and dare not to wear them anymore.

We’ve all been there ladies!

To get IT shoes, you should always pay close attention to the fabric and the sturdiness.

We all know the ladies who dress gorgeously but barely walk in their Valentino heels.

That’s not elegant at all.

Investing in your shoes and even getting them custom-made is so worth it, you feel confident and comfy and that’s the foundation for you to conquer your day!

SUMMER OLD MONEY SHOES❤️👇🏼

While many people aren’t aware of it, old money does love wearing espadrilles wedges.

Summery yet elegant.

If you have a higher budget, the aesthetic brand Castañer is for you bougie girl.

I think they will raise the price in the near future, so check them out now! It’s not that expensive yet.

WINTER OLD MONEY SHOES❤️👇🏼

For winter, Sperry’s boots are as high quality as they look feminine and aesthetic. love it.

  1. Your body is a masterpiece that carries you through life’s journey—honor it with the love and respect it deserves.
  2. Beauty has no single definition; you define what beauty means through your uniqueness and authenticity.
  3. Your worth extends infinitely beyond your appearance—your kindness, strength, and spirit are what truly shine.
  4. The space you occupy in this world is yours by right; never apologize for existing exactly as you are.
  5. Your body tells the story of your life—every mark, curve, and change is a chapter of resilience and growth.
  6. You deserve to speak to yourself with the same compassion and tenderness you would offer to someone you love.
  7. Nourishing your body and soul isn’t selfish—it’s a necessary act of self-respect and care.
  8. The parts of yourself you’ve been taught to hide may be exactly what makes you magnificently unique.
  9. Your body is not a project to be fixed—it is a vessel for experiencing the fullness of life’s joys.
  10. You are allowed to love yourself completely today, not when you reach some future version of yourself.

9. Never underdress or overdress on the occasion❤️👇🏼

Yes, the dress code this year is still a thing.

quiet luxury outfits ladylike
Source: Pinterest

Dress according to the occasion in a manner that will never go out of trend.❤️

Surprise surprise, with the bombard of Instagram fashion bloggers, we sometimes can overdress.

We can for sure dress in a cute little black dress with heels during date night, but when it comes to family gatherings and hiking, let’s do sneakers or other more comfortable wear like a loafer.

As a petite girl, it takes me a long time for me to realize I always wear heels for the wrong occasions.

The worst part?

The painful high heels truly ruin my mood for an outdoorsy day under the sun!❤️👇🏼

All in all, following a dress code, is a sign of sophistication.

It’s subtle but again, the people can tell.

10. Wear delicate accessories instead of the chunky one❤️👇🏼

Last but not least, let’s not forget accessories.

As Michael Kors said, “I’ve always thought of accessories as the exclamation point of a woman’s outfit.”

Accessories do play a huge role in completing our look but should that mean we should wear as much as we want?

Not really.

To your surprise, despite the fact that old money collects lots of high jewelry, they just don’t showcase them all around.

Instead of wearing those big diamond jewelry, they wear delicate earrings or necklaces and that’s it. If you don’t pay close attention, you don’t even aware!

When it comes to accessories, less is always more.❤️

1. OPT FOR THINNER ARCHED EYEBROWS❤️👇🏼

Feminine eyebrows 101: Knowing the eyebrow shape difference between men and women.

eyebrows of men
Guys have thicker and straight eyebrows with a brow ridge that creates deeper shadows

From HuffPost, the article has stated that eyebrows have been getting ‘More Masculine’ for The Past 60 years.

feminine eyebrows women
Women tend to have thinner and arched eyebrows

So while getting a thick eyebrow can be trendy, more importantly, is important to be clear about the final look you want to achieve.❤️

If the goal is to look feminine, a pair of delicate, soft-angled eyebrows can boost the feminine vibes tenfold.

makeup tips to look pretty
Source: Pinterest

So, here are some of the simple ways to achieve a pair of feminine eyebrows.

  • Trim your eyebrows regularly
  • Use a white eyeliner pencil or any highlighter to highlight the arches of your eyebrows
  • Create a softer eyebrows look by using eyebrow powder instead of eyebrow pencils so as to avoid sharp lines
  • Dark brown is always better than black (just my personal opinion)
  • Dye your eyebrows for a more gentle look

These are the rules in general, but always work according to your own face!

If you have a prominent nose or black hair, dark eyebrows will suit you more, as this can give the whole face a more united look.

Another example from the gorgeous model Natalia Castellar shows you how the thickness and shape of the eyebrow can affect the vibes.

With natural eyebrows❤️👇🏼:

I actually think Natalia handled this eyebrow well because she has a relatively feminine jawline and eyes.

So things just balance off.❤️

However, if you already have masculine facial features, embracing the extra-thick eyebrow may not be a good idea.

So ladies, feel free to figure out what type of eyebrows suit you the best and find the sweet spot!

If you are reading this blog post till now, there’s one thing for sure…

You have good taste! <3 If you approve of some of these looks, please kindly pin or share some of these outfits so many tasteful fashion babes can come across this outfit inspo, thanks pretty! ❤️

And…it would truly mean the world to me if you stay until the very end. ❤️

2. EXAGGERATING THE EYE FEATURES❤️👇🏼

If I can only do makeup on just one feature, doubtlessly I will do my eyes!

how to have big eyes
Source: Pinterest

When it comes to eye makeup products, have you realized that they all try to exaggerate your eyes’ features like cartoon eyes?

The eyeliner, the eyelash curler, and the glittering eyeshadows all help you to draw people’s attention to your eyes.

face makeup tips
Source: Pinterest

So yes, eye makeup is really effective in making your face look feminine instantly!

Here are some basic ways to do it❤️👇🏼:

  • Curl your eyelashes and apply an appropriate amount of mascara (Please don’t overdo it)
  • Apply a small amount of mascara on the lower eyelashes to achieve a more innocent look (optional)
  • Opt for dark brown mascara instead (Again, details MATTER)
  • Apply natural eyeshadow to make your eyes look more pop-up
  • I DON’T recommend drawing the inner eyeliners as this makes the eyes appear smaller – See below
makeup tips and tricks
Source: Pinterest

If you want to look more feminine, winged eyeliner is always the best choice!❤️

It creates almost an almond eye shape, which is the opposite of most men’s eyes.

In fact, the power of eye makeup is not just about highlighting your eyes.

If you have a more masculine jawline, it can help to shift people’s attention from the facial line to the eyes.

With bigger eyes, it makes your face look smaller in proportion as well.

For the best eyeliner color, you guessed it, dark brown or another kind of brown.

If you want to know more, this infographic from BUZZFEED is amazing!❤️👇🏼

Using white eyeliner for the undereye always makes your eyes appear slightly bigger with an aesthetic and refreshing look.❤️

3. SOFTEN YOUR JAWLINE AND FACE LINING❤️👇🏼

While men have a longer, square chin, women usually have a round jawline.

While we can’t change our jawline (unless you want to go through surgery), we can always use easy contouring to soften our face lines and get a more feminine jawline!

how to do contour
Source: Pinterest

In the picture above, you can see we always apply bronze to the hairline and jawline so as the minimize the squareness of cheeks and face overall.

In the meantime, we also want to shift people’s attention from the jawline to areas like the forehead and chin!

face makeup simple tips

If you want to level up your contouring game, you can always use an eyebrow pencil to fill and smoothen the hairline.❤️

I know this tip sounds weird, but as a girl with thin hair, this hack works wonders for me, and I feel like my face line looks smoother.

For the ladies who want a quick fix for visible areas of the scalp, this BOLDIFY hairline powder from Amazon is the hidden gem.

Try it out!

Of course, Tom Ford’s Shade and Illuminate Cream Palette is unbeatable.

The problem is some colors always sold out quickly.

Good luck!❤️

Another reminder if you have a masculine jawline:

Avoid wearing a high-neck top.

It just draws people’s eyes to your face and exaggerates the jawline even more.

Alternatively, a feminine scoop neck or off-shoulder top can work wonders.

4. PLUMPER ROUNDER LIP TO LOOK FEMININE❤️👇🏼

Well, you don’t need a lip injection to achieve a plumper lip.

how to look attractive tips
Source: Pinterest

No matter how big or small your lip is, it has its beauty already.

Still, if you want to enhance femininity, here are some stupid easy tricks.❤️👇🏼

  • Draw the lip liner for a more divine and plumper lip shape
  • Apply naturally red/ pink lipstick
  • Add a little bit of highlight on the center of the lips
  • Coat your lips with a thin layer of lip gloss

I know there are countless DIY ways to make your lips look plumper on YouTube.

Some tips actually can hurt if you aren’t doing them in the right way so I rather not recommend them here.

To me, I do think drawing a slightly bigger lip shape is more than enough to highlight the feature!

And when it comes to this point, the video below is THE BEST among all the tutorials I’ve watched.

This YouTuber first showed a wrong example of outlining the lips and then a perfect way.

Watch now and see if you do it the right way!

5. When in doubt, red lips❤️👇🏼

Need I say more? Red lips are just universally feminine and attractive.

According to Psychological Today, highly attractive women were perceived as even more attractive in red.

So I guess there’s never too much red for the lips!

Plus, this is always an indicator of the confidence level. Bold ladies rock the red, which makes them even more appealing.

6. PICK A FEMININE HAIRSTYLE THAT WORKS FOR YOUR FACE❤️👇🏼

Ladies, your hairstyle MATTERS.

If you have feminine facial features but somehow don’t look feminine, probably your hairstyle is too masculine and this balances out the femininity in your face.❤️

While technically you can look feminine in both short and long hair, if you have a more square jawline, long hair can really hide the lining a lot!

Here are some hairstyle suggestions for different face shapes❤️👇🏼:

  • Oval Shape: Basically everything!
  • Square Shape: Long waves hair and avoid jaw-length bob
  • Round Shape: Long hair with side parts and avoid bangs
  • Long Shape: Long voluminous curls with bangs and avoid sleek ponytail
  • Heart Shape: Curly/straight long hair and avoid Pixie cuts

With the right hairstyle, it can smoothen your faceline and make your face look more womanly!

As a round-face girl, I feel like I am a totally different person when I don’t do the bangs anymore – I hate to admit but I look SO MUCH BETTER.

7. ALWAYS SHOW YOUR NECKLINE (ALWAYS)❤️👇🏼

Instead of hiding both sides of the jaw with long hair, magically, it looks better when you show one side of your neckline!

Follow Shopthemint

By tucking one side of the hair behind the ears, your face looks naturally smaller visually as the neckline draws people’s attention.❤️

This also explains why we always look slimmer when we wear an off-shoulder dress than a round-neck top.

On top of that, the neckline is one of the most feminine spots among our body curves so it’s also flattering to show our neckline.❤️

It’s a bit sexy but in a classy way, LOVE it.

Another way to contour face shape: wear longline earrings.

Not only it’s ultra feminine, but the earring just makes your face appear to be smaller by comparison.

8. MAINTAIN SMOOTH MOISTURIZING SKIN❤️👇🏼

Last but not least, let’s not forget our canvas – the skin!

Men tend to have rougher and drier skin with less trimming, that’s why smooth moisturizing skin is always feminine to look at.

skin care tips

Face skincare is a broad topic, without diving too deep, here are some basic tricks!

  • Wear sunscreen every day (Even if it’s a rainy or a cloudy day) to prevent wrinkles and more skin problems – a total game changer
  • Clean and moisturize your skin daily
  • Do deep cleaning once or twice a month
  • Eat less junk food and oily food to prevent acne (You are what you eat)

A good skin condition not only shows our femininity but also reflects how healthy we are.

Trust me, people can really tell if are you putting your life together just by how you take care of your appearance and body!

TOOLS YOU NEED TO ENHANCE YOUR FEMININITY❤️👇🏼:

For eyebrows❤️👇🏼:

  • Benefit High Brow Glow Pencil (Many ladies are already using this brand so I’m not going introduce it, but really, I LOVE the darling champagne-pink shade)
  • Eyebrow / Facial Razor ( I’ve tried a few pricy brands but I just think the $4.99 one already works wonders for me)

For eyes❤️👇🏼:

  • Dark brown mascara is always better than black ( For girls who wanna look good but without trying too hard)
  • White eyeliner for the corner for the lower lid (For girls who wanna look slightly innocent)

1. Roll the sleeves to elongate your figure❤️👇🏼

I’m shocked that people don’t do this trick enough as it’s such a stupid easy one to elongate your figure.

Roll your sleeves a turn or two can always draw eyes upward and elongate your figure visually just like what cuffed jeans do.

I will always do the three-quarter (3/4) or the below elbow length so I can still hide my flappy upper arms area. Lovely.


Feel heavy in a sweater and flared jeans? Well, showcase your wrist out!

Yup, ladies, a little detail can make you look sleek tenfold!

THANK YOU FOR PINNING and spreading more plus-size content on the internet! Bless you ♥


2. When in doubt, a thin belt❤️👇🏼

We all know adding a belt can contour our figure but well, NOT all kinds of belts can serve us right.

If you are the petite plus size, definitely swap the thick belt for a thin one.

As the chunky belt creates a block rather than a sleek division line for the body, it’s not helping at all.

If you want a stylish twist, chain belts are having a moment these days.

A beige shirt dress with a nose gold chain belt just looks so aesthetic. LOVE it. ❤️

Need I say more? This lady is screaming the classy vibes to the fullest.

I love how she matches the belt and boots in the same hue – it just looks so put together! ❤️


3. The Corset belt is the plus-size godsend❤️👇🏼

A chic way to dress a plus-size body? Corset belt.

While they are thick, they hold a structured shape and hold all your curves in the right place.

So yes girls, whenever I want to fake an hourglass body, this is the one I go for.

I mean, a white dress shirt and a black underbust corset? How chic is that look?

Together with a sleek low bun and a nice pair of nude heels, gal you are reading to hit the town.


And guess what, a black monotone look is equally flattering!❤️

Update: I just discovered there’s a peplum belt these days!

This belt is just as forgiving as they are effortlessly stylish!

4. Plus size summer outfit ideas: sheer kimono❤️👇🏼

When it comes to plus-size outfit ideas for summer, all we need is flattering, cute, and gorgeously lightweight outerwear that serves our curves right.

That said, nothing is better than a sheer long kimono. I love them for 3 reasons.

  • You can wear prints in a flattering way: the sheer fabric lowers the color contrast of the prints and thus minimizes the exaggerated effect❤️

  • If you want to wear light summer hues like white and pastels, a sheer kimono just gives you extra coverage.
  • Plus, that can really spruce up the look.
  • Long-line outerwear like kimono can always elongate your figure and make you look put together

So yes, that’s definitely a plus-size summer fashion essential.

Without a doubt.

5. Waterfall cardigan plus size are the flattering choices❤️👇🏼

As for the plus-size outfit ideas for fall, long-line outerwear is a must-have item.

style mistakes to avoid

But if you want to take a step further.

Go for the long-line waterfall cardigan that can draw eyes vertically and flatter the plus-size figure.

Below are my handpicks from Amazon, you will not believe it takes me half an hour to filter out the bad quality ones.

6. Opt for a structured fabric that holds your body on point❤️👇🏼

I know, soft fabrics are comfy and lightweight but sometimes they aren’t the best choice to flatter our curves.

style mistakes to avoid
Source: 1,2

Fabrics like chiffon, cotton, and other synthetics, just easily show all my fat rolls out instead of holding our figure.

I mean, even a supermodel can’t look good in a cotton bodycon skirt sometimes.❤️

style mistakes to avoid

I will always go for strong, supportive fabric like denim, tweed, jacquard, and a woven dress that can slightly hold up the shape.

And surprise surprise, the lightweight fabric like silk and satin looks nice on the plus-size as well, their shimmering finish just perfectly distracts attention.❤️

High-quality fabric makes a long way sis!

7. Asymmetrical top and dress for elongating effect❤️👇🏼

Not only are they stylish, but inverted and asymmetrical hemlines help draw eyes upward visually.

Compared to the regular hemline that just cuts the legs horizontally, these unique designs above certainly look way better in achieving the leg-elongating effect.

So if you want to shed down the heaviness of the lower body, well, you know what to wear!

For a semi-formal event, just add some gold accent and jewelry here and there and you’re good to go!

8. Peplum top to cover mid-section❤️👇🏼

Featuring the flared stripe of fabric around the waist, this is how you fake an hourglass shape without sucking your tummy.

Searching plus-size outfit ideas for work?

I’d say illusion dress.

Featuring the black color block stripe on the waist area and the sexy S line, these dresses help to distract from figure flaws greatly.

If you want to look professional with a hint of sexy? This is the one.

Only focusing on plus-size dressing to look thinner? Why not harness the power of color illusion? The chic monochrome look.

Putting yourself in the same color scheme just makes your figure look united and promotes the elongating and slimming effect.

To pull off the chic monotone look perfectly, I’d say play with different fabrics and textures.

If you are wearing a white knit sweater, pair it with beige denim pants to give it some different dimensions.

11. Keep your look simple with two hues❤️👇🏼

If monochrome is really not your thing, what about keeping your look simple with only two colors, that can greatly help as well.

Strategically speaking, matching your hat and shoes in the same tone can always elongate your figure from head to toe.

For the petite plus size out there, ALWAYS match your bottom and shoes in a similar shade to maximize the effect.

12. Best necklines for plus-size❤️👇🏼

I talk about necklines ALL THE TIME as that can really make and break a look.

Below are my honest thoughts about all the different necklines.

  • Round neckline❤️👇🏼 (NOT FLATTERING, that makes my chubby face look even bigger. Plus round neck looks too youthful and casual for me)

  • V-neck and square neck❤️👇🏼 (MUCH BETTER CHOICE, V line can elongate your neck and make you look slimmer)

  • Off-shoulder❤️👇🏼 (My favorite: Feminine and sexy, again it can shed the heaviness of the upper body – super flattering for all types of gals except board shoulders)

  • Sweetheart neckline❤️👇🏼 (I LOVE that because it can always create a bustier look but still contour my arms! )

13. H-shape skirt is more slimming than an A-line skirt❤️👇🏼

H-shape dresses like pencil skirts look way more slimming than the A-line skirt.

If you wonder why is that, think triangle and a standing rectangle.❤️

Even though they are both the same height, the rectangle always looks taller visually isn’t it?

If you really want to wear an A-line dress, perhaps consider a less dramatic design.

A sweet pleated midi skirt is always darling.

14. Opt for a midi dress rather than knee high dress❤️👇🏼

A knee-high dress is not flattering as it brutally highlights the calf area.

style mistakes to avoid
Source: 1,2

Go for the midi dress (mid-calf) dress and instantly you will feel so much better.

Is that just me but I always look visually taller in a midi skirt.

I guess that’s due to the wrong cut-off point for the knee-high dress.

15. How to wear prints as a plus size❤️👇🏼

Can you wear bold prints in plus size? HELL YES.

style mistakes to avoid
Source: 1,2

Here are the tips to look slim in your darling printed dress.

  • Prints with less color contrast❤️👇🏼

If you are wearing an all-over print dress, you can always minimize the boldness by picking the right color combo.

For example, the dark green prints on the light green dress look more slimming than the red prints on the stacked white dress.

Plus, I personally think a similar color scheme just makes things look more classy and tasteful. Do you girls agree?

  • Team bold prints with solids❤️👇🏼

If you really want to style attention-drawing animal prints, that’s fine as well! That said, remember only one statement for the look.

Less is more.

Team it with solid hues like black and navy blue just calm the whole look down and make you stay smart and sleek.

This is so random… BUT

  1. Your body is a masterpiece that carries you through life’s journey—honor it with the love and respect it deserves.
  2. Beauty has no single definition; you define what beauty means through your uniqueness and authenticity.
  3. Your worth extends infinitely beyond your appearance—your kindness, strength, and spirit are what truly shine.
  4. The space you occupy in this world is yours by right; never apologize for existing exactly as you are.
  5. Your body tells the story of your life—every mark, curve, and change is a chapter of resilience and growth.
  6. You deserve to speak to yourself with the same compassion and tenderness you would offer to someone you love.
  7. Nourishing your body and soul isn’t selfish—it’s a necessary act of self-respect and care.
  8. The parts of yourself you’ve been taught to hide may be exactly what makes you magnificently unique.
  9. Your body is not a project to be fixed—it is a vessel for experiencing the fullness of life’s joys.
  10. You are allowed to love yourself completely today, not when you reach some future version of yourself.

17. Best shoes for cankles and thick ankles❤️👇🏼

Again, below are my honest thoughts on shoes.

  • Round-toe shoes (NO GO. That make the legs look so thick)
  • Pointy shoes (HELL YES for the leg elongating effect)
  • Ankle boots (Wear them with tights rather than cuffed jeans for a slimming look)
  • Cut-off boots (No one mentioned that but they are so forgiving! I will always pair black sheer tights with them.)
  • Ankle strap heels shorten legs (Especially the thick strap)
  • Nude heels (Lovely choice for longer legs)
  • Spaghetti strap sandals (Sexy and slimming – the thin strap is way easier to carry)

18. Hats for big heads❤️👇🏼

If you find yourself looking awkward in a beanie, you are not the only one.

clothes & slimming tips that flatter a plus size figure
Source: 1,2

Sometimes we just have to realize some hats are not serving us right.

If you have a round face shape, avoid those sloppy hats that fail to add height to your face.

Instead, pick those wide-beam hats that have the elongating effect and create a smaller face by comparisons.

The last tip, if you want to wear a beret hat, definitely wear it on the side rather than on top of the head.

What about paying more attention to your accessories choice?

For example, if you are a chubby face girl like me, switch the choker necklace to a long Y-necklace that just elongates your neck effortlessly.

And for the earrings girls, picking the long-line earrings can work wonders as well. It just makes your face look slimmer by comparison.

❤️ 2025 Update ❤️

I’ve finally started my LTK account @hannahnfashion and I just created a post dedicated to plus size baes.

The dresses that I’ve picked tick all the boxes below. (In case you want something extra forgivinggg)

  • ✅ Showcase the feminine neckline
  • ✅ The ruching details hide the belly
  • ✅ Asymmetrical hemline draws the eye upward and elongates the legs visually

I’ve also included my hidden gem – a peplum belt from Walmart. Check out my post here & please follow for more styling tips❤️!

Love you girls!!

20. Carry a structured bag instead of a slouchy big bag❤️👇🏼

I never thought about bags before, until one day my friend just said: “Can you please stop wearing this HUGE tote bag, it just makes you look baggy.”

clothes & slimming tips that flatter a plus size figure
Source: 1,2

That’s brutal but true.

If you are already wearing a tunic top and slouchy mom jeans, wearing a big shoulder bag is not helpful at all.

If you can’t size down your bag (The crazy shopping and errands days), at least pick a structured bag.

Trust me, that alone makes a big difference.

FINAL THOUGHTS❤️👇🏼:

So ladies, here are the 20 clothes and tips that can flatter a plus-size figure.

It takes me a LONG time to figure out these tips myself so I truly hope this article can serve as the styling shortcut for the plus-size babes out there.

Let’s also take time to remind ourselves that our curves are beautiful.

Instead of hiding it, they deserve to be present in the most gorgeous way ♡♡♡

As Hayley Hasselhoff said, “At the end of the day we are all trying to feel comfortable in any type of size – plus size or not“.

Shine bright girl.❤️

Before you leave, can you please take a moment to share this pin below?♡

That really helps support the plus-size community promote curvy beauty and spread the message:

Elevate your overall aura in no time!


Update: I just added a classy styling trick to roll up your jeans, make sure you stay till the end Love x!


1. Maintain healthy skin and body❤️👇🏼

Fun fact:

The most popular old money nail design is, you guessed it, French nails.

Simple, classy, and sophisticated.

Before talking about the iconic looks, let’s take the fundamental thing RIGHT.❤️

The truth is that old money realizes how health plays an important role in their quality of life.

And guess what, a lady in Ralph Lauren but with rough hair and bad skin just doesn’t convey the old money vibes at all.

Agree?

Here are some quick tips on that:

  • Maintain thick and shining hair with bi-weekly deep conditioning and sulfate-free shampoo
  • Nurture your body skin by applying the body lotion and hand cream

  • Take good care of your teeth, make sure they are structured and clean (Teeth bracing is always a worthwhile investment)
  • Get your eyebrows trimmed to look put-together
  • Keep your nails clean (Many ladies overlook this point)

If you are fond of clean beauty like me, here’s my iHerb recommending list.

Here are just a few tips, but I’m sure you get my point!

Trust me, people can spot that!


Old money element 1❤️👇🏼:

Wrap the tie sweater around the shoulder (Oh so preppy)

I just can’t help but include this pin below, the sweater around-the-shoulder all-white look is another level.

*Obsessed*


2. Have a good posture❤️👇🏼

As the saying goes, “A good stance and posture reflect a proper state of mind”.

Ladies, posture matters when it comes to dressing like old money or simply looking high class.

Let’s imagine, with a hunched back and an arched spine, how we can carry the dress elegantly and confidently?

So always keep your head up and tummy sucked in, walk at a moderate pace and this is how we boost our confidence instantly!

My weird tip:

There are tons of ways to fix hunchback and for me, one of the easiest ways is simply carrying a handle bag.

Trust me, it is ridiculously simple yet effective!

3. Avoid BIG brand labels❤️👇🏼

Obviously, old money avoids designer labels.

They run as fast as they can when it comes to the big, flashy designer logo.

Storytime:

When I was a teen girl, I always wondered why some of the designer brands’ products just didn’t show the logo.

avoid big designer logos

Not until this year, my friend (As a SA in Blueberry) told me that those products catered to the old money’s needs while big logo products are targeted to the younger group of customers.

So obviously, the oh-so-lucrative-and-smart designer brands have two lines of products targeting different groups of customers in order to maximize revenue.

SAME BRAND, DIFFERENT STYLE❤️👇🏼

Admittedly, I still own some brand logo bags, but I do try to minimize. (I mean, it’s hard to buy a Chanel bag without the classic double C right?!)

As for the big logo products, it’s a BIG NO-NO.

It can easily look flashy, and it appears to others that you are trying to seek validation through the clothes you wear.

For some people, not throwing all big logos over the body can be hard.

But I can almost guarantee you that once you take this tip into practice, you will be amazed at how free you feel.

A Fendi logo monogram sweater and a big H belt?

No, you are good.❤️

They don’t have to prove they are rich by showing the brand logo all around.

Instead, they just want to keep things low profile and private and THAT’S how they differentiate their group from the rest of the crowd.

Here are some of the essentials if you want to dress preppy ♡ Enjoy!

4. Wear natural fiber instead of polyester❤️👇🏼

When it comes to clothing, we always pay attention to the design instead of the materials.

And that’s a trap.

If you have ever wondered why your big fluffy coat still can’t keep you warm in the winter, probably because the material is mostly polyester instead of warm fiber like wool.


Just created this natural fabric list for your reference, pin this for later <3!

natural fabrics to dress elegant

Not only is natural fiber more functional, but it also makes your clothes look more structured and sturdy.❤️

SILK DRESS old money outfit

Here are some of the natural fiber that makes your clothes look more classy and elegant:

  • Wool
  • Silk (Truly flattering & feminine! )
  • Camel hair
  • Cashmere (Best for winter!)
  • Organic cotton and bamboo
  • Make sure you smell good with natural deodorants and perfume

So ladies, you now have many other choices instead of wearing polyester!

Let’s not forget that natural fiber is a more sustainable way to support fashion as well!

Old money aesthetic 5: Cashmere cardigan❤️👇🏼

The classy zipper design, the mock neck, and the material – clothes from Lilysilk are truly unbeatable in this price range.

Obsessed.

THANK YOU FOR PINNING LOVE! I’m sure you’re a lady with good taste woohoo! Bless you ♥

5. Dress in low-saturation colors❤️👇🏼

Instead of vivid, high saturated, bright colors, they tend to wear natural colors.

Need I say more? This silk blue shirt is to die for.

OLD MONEY AESTHETIC HUES❤️👇🏼:

  • Black
  • Beige
  • Khaki
  • Creamy white (Obviously)
  • Dusty green
  • Sky blue

If you want to wear bright colors, think of the muted version of the hue, and you’re good to go.

Source: Pinterest

Not only do these colors look more natural and closer to the earth’s tone, but they are also less noticeable than bright colors like shocking pink.❤️

That means you can wear that sweater many times without people remembering it.

After all, old money dresses for comfort instead of secretly hoping people pay attention to their clothes… and practicality❤️.

Old money elements 6❤️👇🏼:

Belted blazer with midi pleated dress

Seriously, ladies, try this combo out as this look has not yet been discovered by TikTok. (Finger cross)

Old money on a budget pick:

If this dress is not classy, I truly don’t know what is. Simple but unique sleeve design to layer with a blazer.

Shop NORDSTROM for this beautiful dress!
The asymmetrical hemline is so leg forgiving.

6. Wear Tailor-made clothes❤️👇🏼

I know many of you may think tailor-made clothes are something luxurious and only the flirty rich people can afford.

Well, not really.

To begin with, wearing fitted clothes is basic etiquette.

Unless you have a model figure, at some point in time, we just have to visit the tailor.❤️

As a pear-shaped girl, my trousers are always too long if I want to fit my thick thighs.

fitted clothes old money outfit

Storytime❤️👇🏼:

For the longest time, I tried to cuff the trousers.

It’s not super good, but at least it works!

Last year, I finally visited the tailor and tried to see if there were better options.

It turns out my trousers look perfect and they hug the curves of my leg so well!

It makes my leg appear longer, and I always feel so smart and confident in wearing them.

When it comes to tailor-made clothes, it’s just another level.

Visiting a tailor doesn’t mean you have to spend a few thousand bucks, instead, you can pay for a little amendment to make your clothes more flattering!

I don’t know how to convince you but all I can see is, it’s worth it.

Iconic look: Wear a scarf in not some common way❤️👇🏼

You wear scarves not because it is fall season, you wear them because they polish your outfit tenfold without screaming the brand names.

At the end of the day, an old money outfit is ALL ABOUT DETAILS.❤️


7. Make sure your clothes are structured and crease-free❤️👇🏼

Using a steamer is probably the easiest way to look expensive on a budget.

quiet luxury outfit ideas
One of my favorite bloggers @the.la.way

As my mum always said, “A $20 H&M top can look better than a $110 designer top with just a steamer.”

I just can’t agree more.

The wrinkled shirt just tells people:

A. you are in a rush

B. You just don’t care about the presentation of your clothes and you are probably the “get away with it” type of gal.

If you are reading this till now, I’m sure you don’t want either of them.

In the days that many people are just too lazy to iron their clothes, a crease-free shirt can already make you set apart from others!

PRO TIP❤️👇🏼:

Always use the mini iron for a hassle-free life.

This one from Amazon is compact yet powerful.

2025 Update❤️ :

3 of you e-mailed me for some cheaper “old money”alternatives.

Well, it’s really hard…

I’ve picked some $50 below dresses – check out my LTK post (dresses) & LTK post (tops) here! ❤️

Disclaimer: I have to be honest, the quality aren’t the best given that price range, but if “Looking” classy is what you want, those dresses work! ❤️

8. Sporty classy old-money outfits❤️👇🏼

I think the video explains more here.

Seriously I feel so rich just by watching this video. Anyone?

Obsessed with the yacht with the family look.

9. Old money shoes❤️👇🏼

If you don’t have a budget, at least invest in your shoes.

Old money values quality more than quantity.

Instead of buying 10 different pairs of heels, one or two pairs of high-quality heels are more than enough.

Yes, those shoes may cost you more than the average, but let’s remember how many shoes we wear once and dare not to wear them anymore.

We’ve all been there ladies!

To get IT shoes, you should always pay close attention to the fabric and the sturdiness.

We all know the ladies who dress gorgeously but barely walk in their Valentino heels.

That’s not elegant at all.

Investing in your shoes and even getting them custom-made is so worth it, you feel confident and comfy and that’s the foundation for you to conquer your day!

SUMMER OLD MONEY SHOES❤️👇🏼

While many people aren’t aware of it, old money does love wearing espadrilles wedges.

Summery yet elegant.

If you have a higher budget, the aesthetic brand Castañer is for you bougie girl.

I think they will raise the price in the near future, so check them out now! It’s not that expensive yet.

WINTER OLD MONEY SHOES❤️👇🏼

For winter, Sperry’s boots are as high quality as they look feminine and aesthetic. love it.

I’ve owned 2 pairs and I wear them e.v.e.r.y. y.e.a.r.

This is so random… BUT

  1. Your body is a masterpiece that carries you through life’s journey—honor it with the love and respect it deserves.
  2. Beauty has no single definition; you define what beauty means through your uniqueness and authenticity.
  3. Your worth extends infinitely beyond your appearance—your kindness, strength, and spirit are what truly shine.
  4. The space you occupy in this world is yours by right; never apologize for existing exactly as you are.
  5. Your body tells the story of your life—every mark, curve, and change is a chapter of resilience and growth.
  6. You deserve to speak to yourself with the same compassion and tenderness you would offer to someone you love.
  7. Nourishing your body and soul isn’t selfish—it’s a necessary act of self-respect and care.
  8. The parts of yourself you’ve been taught to hide may be exactly what makes you magnificently unique.
  9. Your body is not a project to be fixed—it is a vessel for experiencing the fullness of life’s joys.
  10. You are allowed to love yourself completely today, not when you reach some future version of yourself.

9. Never underdress or overdress on the occasion❤️👇🏼

Yes, the dress code this year is still a thing.

quiet luxury outfits
Source: Pinterest

Dress according to the occasion in a manner that will never go out of trend.❤️

Surprise surprise, with the bombard of Instagram fashion bloggers, we sometimes can overdress.

We can for sure dress in a cute little black dress with heels during date night, but when it comes to family gatherings and hiking, let’s do sneakers or other more comfortable wear like a loafer.

As a petite girl, it takes me a long time for me to realize I always wear heels for the wrong occasions.

The worst part?

The painful high heels truly ruin my mood for an outdoorsy day under the sun!❤️👇🏼

All in all, following a dress code, is a sign of sophistication.

It’s subtle but again, the people can tell.

Last but not least, let’s not forget accessories.

As Michael Kors said, “I’ve always thought of accessories as the exclamation point of a woman’s outfit.”

Accessories do play a huge role in completing our look but should that mean we should wear as much as we want?

Not really.

To your surprise, despite the fact that old money collects lots of high jewelry, they just don’t showcase them all around.

Instead of wearing those big diamond jewelry, they wear delicate earrings or necklaces and that’s it. If you don’t pay close attention, you don’t even aware!

Feminine eyebrows 101: Knowing the eyebrow shape difference between men and women.

Guys have thicker and straight eyebrows with a brow ridge that creates deeper shadows

From HuffPost, the article has stated that eyebrows have been getting ‘More Masculine’ for The Past 60 years.

Women tend to have thinner and arched eyebrows

So while getting a thick eyebrow can be trendy, more importantly, is important to be clear about the final look you want to achieve.❤️

If the goal is to look feminine, a pair of delicate, soft-angled eyebrows can boost the feminine vibes tenfold.

So, here are some of the simple ways to achieve a pair of feminine eyebrows.

  • Trim your eyebrows regularly
  • Use a white eyeliner pencil or any highlighter to highlight the arches of your eyebrows
  • Create a softer eyebrows look by using eyebrow powder instead of eyebrow pencils so as to avoid sharp lines
  • Dark brown is always better than black (just my personal opinion)
  • Dye your eyebrows for a more gentle look

These are the rules in general, but always work according to your own face!

If you have a prominent nose or black hair, dark eyebrows will suit you more, as this can give the whole face a more united look.

Another example from the gorgeous model Natalia Castellar shows you how the thickness and shape of the eyebrow can affect the vibes.

I actually think Natalia handled this eyebrow well because she has a relatively feminine jawline and eyes.

So things just balance off.❤️

However, if you already have masculine facial features, embracing the extra-thick eyebrow may not be a good idea.

So ladies, feel free to figure out what type of eyebrows suit you the best and find the sweet spot!

2. EXAGGERATING THE EYE FEATURES❤️👇🏼

If I can only do makeup on just one feature, doubtlessly I will do my eyes!

When it comes to eye makeup products, have you realized that they all try to exaggerate your eyes’ features like cartoon eyes?

The eyeliner, the eyelash curler, and the glittering eyeshadows all help you to draw people’s attention to your eyes.

So yes, eye makeup is really effective in making your face look feminine instantly!

Here are some basic ways to do it❤️👇🏼:

  • Curl your eyelashes and apply an appropriate amount of mascara (Please don’t overdo it)
  • Apply a small amount of mascara on the lower eyelashes to achieve a more innocent look (optional)
  • Opt for dark brown mascara instead (Again, details MATTER)
  • Apply natural eyeshadow to make your eyes look more pop-up
  • I DON’T recommend drawing the inner eyeliners as this makes the eyes appear smaller – See below

If you want to look more feminine, winged eyeliner is always the best choice!❤️

It creates almost an almond eye shape, which is the opposite of most men’s eyes.

In fact, the power of eye makeup is not just about highlighting your eyes.

If you have a more masculine jawline, it can help to shift people’s attention from the facial line to the eyes.

With bigger eyes, it makes your face look smaller in proportion as well.

For the best eyeliner color, you guessed it, dark brown or another kind of brown.

Using white eyeliner for the undereye always makes your eyes appear slightly bigger with an aesthetic and refreshing look.❤️

I don’t think many girls are doing this right now – and that means this is the chance for you to stand out from the crowd and SHINE!

To boost the effect of the darling “doll eyes”, add a tad of glitter to help open up the eyes even more!

3. SOFTEN YOUR JAWLINE AND FACE LINING❤️👇🏼

While men have a longer, square chin, women usually have a round jawline.

While we can’t change our jawline (unless you want to go through surgery), we can always use easy contouring to soften our face lines and get a more feminine jawline!

In the picture above, you can see we always apply bronze to the hairline and jawline so as the minimize the squareness of cheeks and face overall.

In the meantime, we also want to shift people’s attention from the jawline to areas like the forehead and chin!

If you want to level up your contouring game, you can always use an eyebrow pencil to fill and smoothen the hairline.❤️

I know this tip sounds weird, but as a girl with thin hair, this hack works wonders for me, and I feel like my face line looks smoother.

For the ladies who want a quick fix for visible areas of the scalp, this BOLDIFY hairline powder from Amazon is the hidden gem.

Try it out!

Of course, Tom Ford’s Shade and Illuminate Cream Palette is unbeatable.

The problem is some colors always sold out quickly.

Good luck!❤️

Another reminder if you have a masculine jawline:

Avoid wearing a high-neck top.

It just draws people’s eyes to your face and exaggerates the jawline even more.

Alternatively, a feminine scoop neck or off-shoulder top can work wonders.

4. PLUMPER ROUNDER LIP TO LOOK FEMININE❤️👇🏼

Well, you don’t need a lip injection to achieve a plumper lip.

No matter how big or small your lip is, it has its beauty already.

Still, if you want to enhance femininity, here are some stupid easy tricks.❤️👇🏼

  • Draw the lip liner for a more divine and plumper lip shape
  • Apply naturally red/ pink lipstick
  • Add a little bit of highlight on the center of the lips
  • Coat your lips with a thin layer of lip gloss

I know there are countless DIY ways to make your lips look plumper on YouTube.

Some tips actually can hurt if you aren’t doing them in the right way so I rather not recommend them here.

To me, I do think drawing a slightly bigger lip shape is more than enough to highlight the feature!

And when it comes to this point, the video below is THE BEST among all the tutorials I’ve watched.

This YouTuber first showed a wrong example of outlining the lips and then a perfect way.

Watch now and see if you do it the right way!

5. When in doubt, red lips❤️👇🏼

Need I say more? Red lips are just universally feminine and attractive.

According to Psychological Today, highly attractive women were perceived as even more attractive in red.

So I guess there’s never too much red for the lips!

Plus, this is always an indicator of the confidence level. Bold ladies rock the red, which makes them even more appealing.

6. PICK A FEMININE HAIRSTYLE THAT WORKS FOR YOUR FACE❤️👇🏼

Ladies, your hairstyle MATTERS.

If you have feminine facial features but somehow don’t look feminine, probably your hairstyle is too masculine and this balances out the femininity in your face.❤️

While technically you can look feminine in both short and long hair, if you have a more square jawline, long hair can really hide the lining a lot!

Here are some hairstyle suggestions for different face shapes❤️👇🏼:

  • Oval Shape: Basically everything!
  • Square Shape: Long waves hair and avoid jaw-length bob
  • Round Shape: Long hair with side parts and avoid bangs
  • Long Shape: Long voluminous curls with bangs and avoid sleek ponytail
  • Heart Shape: Curly/straight long hair and avoid Pixie cuts

With the right hairstyle, it can smoothen your faceline and make your face look more womanly!

As a round-face girl, I feel like I am a totally different person when I don’t do the bangs anymore – I hate to admit but I look SO MUCH BETTER.

7. ALWAYS SHOW YOUR NECKLINE (ALWAYS)❤️👇🏼

Instead of hiding both sides of the jaw with long hair, magically, it looks better when you show one side of your neckline!

By tucking one side of the hair behind the ears, your face looks naturally smaller visually as the neckline draws people’s attention.❤️

This also explains why we always look slimmer when we wear an off-shoulder dress than a round-neck top.

On top of that, the neckline is one of the most feminine spots among our body curves so it’s also flattering to show our neckline.❤️

It’s a bit sexy but in a classy way, LOVE it.

Another way to contour face shape: wear longline earrings.

Not only it’s ultra feminine, but the earring just makes your face appear to be smaller by comparison.

8. MAINTAIN SMOOTH MOISTURIZING SKIN❤️👇🏼

Last but not least, let’s not forget our canvas – the skin!

Men tend to have rougher and drier skin with less trimming, that’s why smooth moisturizing skin is always feminine to look at.

how to feminise your face

Face skincare is a broad topic, without diving too deep, here are some basic tricks!

  • Wear sunscreen every day (Even if it’s a rainy or a cloudy day) to prevent wrinkles and more skin problems – a total game changer
  • Clean and moisturize your skin daily
  • Do deep cleaning once or twice a month
  • Eat less junk food and oily food to prevent acne (You are what you eat)

A good skin condition not only shows our femininity but also reflects how healthy we are.

Trust me, people can really tell if are you putting your life together just by how you take care of your appearance and body!
