Overweight individuals are very conscious about the extra weight they carry around with them. Bulges appear no matter how hard they try to hide them and this causes them to lose self-confidence. Having a big size should never stand in the way of being foxy. Here are some tips to looking sexy even when overweight that you should try.

  1. Wear the right clothes. If you’re top-heavy, go for fitted v-necked tops in subtle colours. Meanwhile, bottom heavy individuals should wear something dark. Avoid very loud colours like neon.
  2. Be confident. How you carry yourself especially in public contributes to your sexiness. Don’t slump, keep your head up, and exude grace and power with your every step.
  3. Wear red. Red is a colour associated to sexiness, bravery, passion, romance, and love. Wear red lipstick, accessories, dress or even shoes to attract attention.
  4. Make those eyes pop. Dr. Ava Cadell said that men in general are easily attracted to women who have bigger eyes, lips and breasts. These are signs of fertility and make them look very appealing to men. So draw attention to those eyes because you don’t need to fake anymore your big breasts and already full lips.
  5. “Skinny hair”. Clothes alone won’t make you look sexier. Your hair also plays a big role. Charla Krupp shares with Cosmo that you have to have highlights or lowlights because a single hair colour can make you look fat.
  6. Accessorize with bangles. Another way to look sexier is to wear bangles which never go out of style. If you have big arms, wearing bangles will draw more attention to your wrists.
  7. Good hygiene. Being overweight doesn’t mean you no longer know how to care for your body inside and out. Look sexy by being clean, tidy and presentable. Don’t forget to wear makeup especially in public or at work. Spray your favourite perfume too because your scent also defines your sexiness.

Being sexy is not all about size. Sometimes, you need to have the right attitude and personality too. Follow these tips to looking sexy even when you’re overweight and you’ll have people appreciating you for who you are regardless of size.
