Musica Snaps

The best two things we got out of globalization & overpopulation would definitely be talent & diversity. So there are hundreds of thousands of musicians all over the world, but how many of them are Egyptian? How many of them write about things we can see in our daily life. If I were asked to point out a genre that I like less than all others, it would definitely be ‘the love song genre’ despite whatever music is being played in the background. We can all easily relate to a love song, but so can almost anyone of the other six billion inhabitants of the globe.

Fashion isn't just for super models!!! On the contrary...fashion is for every one and every body shape....just step outside the square in terms of choosing your wardrobe, to give your body shape a go.

So Now however your body type is; whether fat, or thin on top or bottom you know the basics to follow and dress right for your type. Start experimenting, suit your personal needs, and make new rules that work even better. Happy shopping!!!

Fashion tips for pear-shaped girls (heavy on the lower body)
  • Vertical lines will definitely slim you down. So go for those vertically striped Tees other than those with horizontal lines and bold polka prints!!...The verticle stripes are not just for T-shirts but try them on a chemise or those smooth free flowing silk
    blouses!!!
  • Wear a lighter color on top and a really dark shade on your lower body.....So steer away from light-colour pants and paler washed-look jeans. This way the light colored top catches more attention and your dark lower remains unnoticed.
  • When jeans-shopping...head straight for the clothing rail labbelled 'hipsters'... Hipsters are great in avoiding the gapping waist scenario as they sit on your hips and not your waist. Any pair of jeanse with a low-cut waist band will make your bottom look smaller. Make sure the jeans you buy are boot-cut ...these are so trendy this summer besides, these styles will balance out heavier hips and thighs!!!
  • Remember to make your bottom smaller you can add broadness to your upper body to make your look more proportionate and thinner down below. You could add few inches to your top by wearing those really fashionable loose baby doll ops....these are comfortable yet trendy!!!
  • Avoid skirts that are tapered. Free flowing a-line skirts and dresses are the key to camouflage saddlebags.
  • Don't be tempted by textiles containing strechy materials such as Lycra these will bring you no favour..they'll just cling to your hips and thighs.
  • Waist belts ...although so on fire these season but they aren't a must-wear for you!! These may just accentuate your problem areas below the waist ,but yet you could go for those very thin belts that are worn just on the ver top your waist...want to go wide?? still not a big problem....but make sure they fit quite loose on to the middle part of
    your waist.

 

Fashion tips for apple-shaped girls (heavy on the top)
  • Avoid tops with a lot of detailing and ruffling or rouching.... Keep it simple and clean with soft flowing fabrics, just stay away of this season's bold prints!!!
  • Do not wear very tight or clingy synthetic tops that enhance your problematic areas. Just keep them loose enough!!!
  • Go for light colors for your lowers and wear darker shades on top....remember black is always a mastering colour and the most slimming one!!
  • Broad detailed waist belts offer great help in creating the appearance of a flatter tummy.
  • Use detailing, pleating, etc on your skirt or pant to attract attention there.
  • V-necks will make your bosoms look smaller, also Boat necklines have a slimming effect on the upper body.
  • Go fo boot-cut jeans , this will create an overall impression of length and avert attention from width.
  • Wear a wrap top to cover your stomach. Using layering in the same color and fabric here will have a slimming effect.
  • Pulling your hair up and away from your shoulders will peel away pounds. Try sweeping your hair into a high ponytail and you'll undoubtedly be surprised at how much slimmer your face will look.
  • Never wear anything shoulder padded. Wear thin and light materials on top only....keeping in mind that oversized clothes don't help camouflage problem areas. Excess fabric only makes you look bulkier. Don't try to hide under your clothes!!!
