I don't see a tummy on you. You look fit and proportioned. I am tall, arms, legs & butt are slim, but I have weight around my belly. Some because I need to lose weight, moslty inflammatory. I look pregnant. It seems nothing disguises this body type.
Not wanting to be rude but you don’t have muffin top or a big stomach. Love all you show but I’m in a size 16/18. And I’m only 5ft so it’s hard to hide a big tummy and find cloths that fit. I buy petite for length but the legs are so baggy I try to get stretch pants then the legs look nice. But I do like watching your vidio. Thank you
THANK YOU FOR SAYING WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT BELTS!!! For those of us who have thicker middles (i.e., no waist!), I have found THAT A BELT does NOT CREATE ONE!!! It only accentuates the fact that I do NOT HAVE ONE! It's like trying to create a waist on a barrel. I feel relieved to have heard that! Thank you!
It would be nice if you had someone on there that actually HAS a belly!! You don’t have one so everything is going to look good on you. Get someone like me that has a big belly and then we can see if these tip’s actually work.
“Wear clothes that fit” Lol.. easier enough if you are not an unusual size. I’m 4’10- petite sizes are big… (made for 5’2 which isn4 inches taller than me). I’m also significantly overweight, so I can’t just wear “smaller clothes” sigh… I do my best, lol.
Great tips! I'm still learning to be comfortable in a more fitted outfit. I was one of those people wearing clothes too big to conceal my tummy. However, after seeing pictures, I realized it wasn't working at all.
I did a full face of my most common used makeup in this video. Check it out! Get Ready With Me! / Hair Regrowth for Women Over 40 #womenshairloss #womenover40 #thinninghair ua-cam.com/video/G0arhr8dm9Y/v-deo.html
Here's something else for bellies: checking your liver out and then cutting out certain things in your diet might work wonders. Not drinking enough while eating lots of fibre or seeds can lead to a swollen belly area. Change your diet, and hey presto, say hello again to your nice flat belly, We all tend to swelling in the belly region shortly before and after the menopause, Yeah, it is what it is, LOL ❤️
Love this video! You are awesome, not on there pretending you are a perfect size 0 like so many do , and willing to get on here and help with real issues. You rock girl!!
One thing I love about your videos is that you "show/wear" styles on yourself, not just some picture model. Look forward to more and so happy I found your channel!
I don’t see your tummy as ‘pouchy.’ Plus, one thing you don’t address which makes a huge difference is bust size. When you have a large bust the tummy is less obvious. In my case I have a small bust and rib cage, with a protruding belly like I’m pregnant. So a peplum top, for instance, looks horrid…makes tummy more pronounced. And something like the one color tank/pants with jean jacket would still make the protruding belly obvious. For my shape the most flattering is a-line or swing top.
Just came across your channel. Great suggestions. I've had surgeries in the past where abdominal muscles have been cut. My belly is never going to go completely flat. Diet helps some.
Recently I saw a stylist online demonstrate a very convincing reason to wear a belt: The belt holds the pants, skirt, dress, or top close to your belly, but then you poof the top or dress bodice an inch or two OVER the belt, and it disguises the 'spherical' nature of your belly. The issue is the belly extending out from the body. If you cover the upper curve of its extension outward, it obstructs others' eyes from recognizing how much of a paunch you might have.
This is really helpful thank you. I am not overweight, I'm slim but because I have IBS I bloat so am always having to hide my tummy. I use one technique you've suggested here, by having a top that hangs more off the breasts and creates a straight line down over the tummy hiding it, I often wear a scarf as well to hide the bulge. I like the idea of layering as well whic I sometimes use.
Hi Serena, Apple Shapes look just as gorgeous as hourglasses. APPLES, please don't wear shapewear or girdles meant to cinch you in, they only give you handles or a pregnant belly look. Your top just needs to end an inch below your waistline, eh voila. Love ❤️
Absolutely love your new haircut!!! I enjoy following you and think that your advice and tips are wonderful. You look fabulous in all of your outfits thanks for sharing all of this information!!!!
yes, it was a game changer for me - always wore jeans with belts, then hit 50 and had to make some changes due to bloating. Took me a while to realise the main reason for feeling uncomfortable was actually the belt, not trousers! I also started wearing more dresses - love accessorizing with belts there, so glad you mentioned it! New subscriber here!
I always wear black on top and bottom when Aunt Flo is about to arrive. Haha I feel preggers with my bloated belly, but that makes me feel a little slimmer until I start to deflate. 😂
I just subscribed and liked! You are so real by being willing to model all things __ good and bad, even swimsuits. I've watched several videos today and will go back and give 👍 on all of them.
All great tips - what do you suggest for a muffin top. The area between my bust and waist is my biggest (plus I'm short waisted) and I am finding it so hard to hide while I wait for the weight to come off. I was trying to think of an area to highlight - but can't think of anything!!
I loved the off the shoulder blouse with the beautiful soft pastel colors. That was an outstanding, beautiful look on you🌞. Thank you for this video! Carole
Thank you for a brilliant video. I live in southern Spain where it’s humid too… so totally understand the humidity thing. The kimmo idea is excellent.. just ordered one! 🙏🏻
Also if you need compression in your legs, try clear panty hose and they come toeless too for summer sandals! The panty hose will help compress your legs and tummy.
Serena = we are about the same size in bras- I know you posted a video on that a while ago= can you please link it for me? I need a strapless bra for the summer
Love your newly discovered show. I am 90yeats old, live in a retirement community. We go to the pool and dress for dinner. My big problem is my tummy. and I can’t loose weight, because I like to eat. 4’10 1/2”, 140 lbs!
Hi great suggestions. During summer wear while like you suggested and Soft pastels Keep black at night wear. Not during day during summer. Light blue pink pastels
Hi Serena Enjoy your videos and content. I mostly watch your channel cos you are a Sweet, Lovely Person. Keep up the good work. Love from❤️ South Africa 🇿🇦
Hi Serena, I love these tips! I really needed to hear them. I agree about the belts. I don’t wear them. I also don’t care for button fly jeans either. Your necklace is so pretty with that black top. I never thought about monochromatic hiding the belly. By the way, I love that super organized clothing rack to the side. It looks great! I always enjoy watching your channel because you show things that I love wearing. Keep those great videos coming!

55 now and seriously can’t find any part of my body that I feel I can expose !!!🤪
That white blouse & white pants was excellent. You literally looked 20 lbs smaller vs the other outfits.
Cute hair cut.
Wow, the white outfit was more slimming than the black. Never would have thought that. I always go to black!😊

So many people say to add a belt. They accentuate your shape not hide it!
Your short hair is very flattering. 👍🏻😍
Thanks 🤗
I am so glad you addressed folks wearing the wrong size. Not a lot of videos on it IMO. I also agree with the no belt idea. 🥰
Good ideas…but where is the tummy to hide?
Very helpful suggestions, also the fade with women tucking their shirts in on many older women makes them
Look much bigger.
Sending Love ❤️...Karen...Are you single? 😊❤️

I have a belly. But you don't see it in the video bc these tips DO work.
@@StylewithSerena you wear a size 4 and weigh 128 lbs…..there’s not much belly there to hide. You can pretty much wear anything.
@@StylewithSerena , joking? 🎉 You are funny then.
Check out Cathy Over 50. Her channel has a lot for women with apple shaped bodies.

What do you suggest for a small busted woman that has a tummy
I think these tips would work regardless of bust size.
Thanks for all the helpful tips! Your new haircut looks adorable on you!
Thank you!
Trying to hide a huge belly is like trying to hide a huge nose - ain’t happening.

The white outfit with kimono suits you really well🌻

I feel your pain, that's me too!
Same here. The struggle is real.
Big bust big belly and short. Hate bras Try dressing that. Not fun 😊
I have watched several tummy videos today and yours is the one that suits my needs best. I subscribed ❤
Thank you & welcome! 😃
Love your shorter hair. Very classy looking, simple, elegant.
Thank you so much!

Girl, if I had your figure, I could wear whatever I want! Great tips!
Skip the belt!! Yes!! Thank you for adding that to your list. I'm short-waisted and a belt on me screams, big tummy! big tummy! Great video!

Madewell are the only jeans I wear. They’re always on-trend and very forgiving. 👍🏻
These are my favorite videos! How to, what not to do, tips and tricks!❤
My favorite commercials are for shapewear being blamed for ‘muffin top’. Honey….it’s not the shapewear
But you don't have a big tummy.
That doesn't mean I don't know hacks to conceal one. And my tummy is bigger than you think. I just know how to dress it 😉
@@StylewithSerena, works for you but not for the majority. We have it, you don't.

I have the same issue with belts. I hate it when the belt buckle makes your stomach look even larger. Good tips Serena.

So happy I found your videos! Love the content in this one and I’ll be looking for more.

Thank you for saying not to wear a belt!!! I feel the same way
Serena, I agree with you about skipping the belt most of the time. I have an apple figure and am only 5'2".
I like to put the belt around the ribs to make an empire or pendulum waist effect.
Hi. I have a tummy. Thanks for your great suggestions. ☺
I l9ve your hair and makeup! Thanks for the tips
Button fly jeans are out…I have arthritic fingers.
I find wearing highwasted underwear helps too

Could you please do a video for an all over heavier body type on what to wear
I'm not the best person to speak to that. I would suggest checking out my friend's channel, Cathy Over 50. She's plus size & apple shaped.
