A bit of Metrosexual advice about dressing for slim. ( metrosexual,BTW
is the new term for all the makeovers on people and their homes,
cooking ability and clothes sense.)

I have a reversable 3/4 coat. On one side there are patch pockets. the
other hides the pockets in the side seams. the hidden version gives a
much more svelte and stylish, slimmer look. the patch side is black,
the hidden pocket side is patterned and yet looks slimmer!

I swear patch pockets add 30 lbs to my body and I avoid them at all costs! As soon as
I see patch pockets on something it goes back on the rack! (Sometimes they can be
pulled off with a seam ripper if the piece is really fabulous and the only thing
wrong is the patch pockets.)
