LEANDA’S TIPS

Make sure your shoes fit, because good posture is everything

Body shaper tights are more comfortable and forgiving than Spanx, which pushes all the fat up

Don’t assume flowing, loose fabrics are more flattering, you may well look better in tailored clothes

Beware of short sleeves, especially if you have big boobs.. Use shoulder pads to balance upper arms if that's a problem area

Avoid minimiser bras which push everything down and out

Wearing prints or patterns can help to disguise those squidgy bits

Make sure you’ve checked your back view, as well as your front

Be brave and wear colour. Black drains colour from the face
