Dear Liz Lange -

Ever since having my kids, I've taken on what seems to be an exaggerated pear shape that doesn't change no matter how much I exercise or eat right. What are the best styles to minimize my huge hips? Thanks. - NH

Liz Lange says, My fashion mantra has always been to wear clothing fitted but never tight. That goes for all women, not just those that are pregnant. I think that the straighter leg styles that are being shown today actually make all legs look slimmer and give the impression of a longer silhouette. If you are slightly daunted by the concept, try pairing them with a longer tunic top or sweater that covers the hips.
