Green and Brown

I'm still dressing for all the walking around I'm doing at work and for the freezing cold weather. 
I'm glad I found these cords because they are high rise and have the perfect amount of stretch. They also don't flatten my non existent back side. I altered the leg opening though. The pants were really flared and threw my proportions off balance so I turned them into a boot cut style.  Many times, the perfect item of clothing is not out there and you have to do some things to make them flatter your shape. 
One of my tips to dressing an apple body type in this post includes wearing a camisole in a smaller size if you do not want bother with a body shaper. I'm wearing a camisole two sizes smaller here to smooth things out without any discomfort. How do you make your outfits work?

  4. The boot cut shape looks great on you! I never think about altering my clothes.

  5. I have a green and blue sweater (dots, not stripes, but otherwise similar) ... I think I'm going to have to try it with a similar color pair of pants!
