Here are 4 outfits all styled by me and designed to help address specific body part issues including: hips/bum, tummy, arms and small chest. They are all quite affordable and easily accessible.
THE TUMMY – “I hate my tummy”
TIPS
1) Look for rouching or pleat details across the tummy as this will help to hide the tummy
2) Wear statement jewellery or shoes as a focal point (and take the eye away from your tummy)
3) Choose flattering fabrics like jersey or ponte
4) A busy print dress will hide much more than a solid colour. A LBD is not the most flattering thing you can wear.

ARMS – “How do I cover my bingo wings?”
1) Invest in some boleros or wraps for arm coverage – these will give you arm coverage but won’t over heat you. I love this cropped one from Diana Ferrari
2) Draw emphasis down south with some statement shoes and/or leggings or a print such as this skirt from Sheike
3) Sheer fabrics and lace are great options – this top actually has a lace capped sleeve, so it gives you just the right amount of coverage yet you will not overheat.

Sheike top $99.95
Sheike print skirt $89.95
Diana Ferrari cropped bolero $99.95
Sheike belt $39.95
Colette clutch $34.95

BIG BOTTOM/ HIPS/ PEAR SHAPE = “I hate my thighs and big butt”
TIPS
1) A-line shapes help balance the hips – this black a-line skirt from Portmans hides your hips and bottom
2) a nude shoe always elongates legs
3) Wear colour and prints on top half – i have mixed a coral blazer, print top and print necklace so the focus is all about the top half.

Portmans a-line skirt $79.95
Portmans print blouse $59.95
Portmans blazer $99.95
Portmans necklace $29.95
Portmans clutch $34.95
Wittner shoes $159.95

SMALL BUST – “I wish I had bigger tits”
1) Add volume to your chest with scarfs, frills & pleat details
2) Draw attention to your lower half with prints or colour, even a bright shoe will draw the eye down south
3) If you love your bust then draw attention to your bust with a long necklace
