Whether you’ve just had a baby or going through menopause, belly fat is a common issue many women battle with.
While some women will try to hide their bellies under baggy clothes, others freely accept it and wear whatever they please.
Yes, there are undergarments that can help suck in those belly roles but they tend to be very uncomfortable. And who wants to be constricted all day?
There might not be ways to completely hide belly fat, but there are styles you can avoid in order to draw less attention to the area.
Here’s what you should avoid wearing if you have a belly.
While paperbag pants are trendy right now it’s one style of pants that you should stay clear of. The design is high-waisted and comes with additional fabric which adds bulkiness to the waist area. This immediately draws attention to your belly.
Elastic waist pants are another style of pants to avoid. They might be comfortable but they do not define your waist and can in fact make your outfit look sloppy.
Skinny belts are the one style belt to avoid. They draw attention to your waist and make it more obvious that you don’t have a slim waist.
Be careful with the colour belt you opt for as well. If your belt contrasts the rest of your outfit it will draw attention to your waist. Instead, opt for a colour that is similar to what you are wearing. A black belt is usually a safe bet unless you are wearing white or pastels.
Bodycon skirts or dresses might be fashionable but not the best look for you. They cling to your body showing every lump and bump. Even if you're wearing tight undergarments they still show your shape.
When it comes to tops, you should stay away from cropped tops. Of course they are very trendy but they simply don’t work for ladies with bigger bellies. They literally expose your stomach drawing unwanted attention to it.
