Sich schick machen und gut aussehen: Vielleicht willst du kein Model sein. Vielleicht möchten Sie dieses Wochenende einfach nur auf der Party Ihres Freundes gut aussehen. Hier sind einige praktische Modetipps, die Jearlean aus dem Modelgeschäft gelernt hat und die im Alltag funktionieren.
When in doubt, try it on
Maybe not every outfit will work for your ostomy, but something will. If you like something, try it on. You may be surprised.
You can make anything fashionable
Sometimes I throw on a scarf with an outfit. I might put a belt around my waist. Even when it may seem strange or crazy, I put an outfit on to see if it makes me feel confident.
Find the right jeans
A lot of people want to get back in their jeans again. If you’re anxious to get back into jeans right after surgery, try maternity jeans; they stretch and put less pressure on your pouch as you get comfortable with your ostomy.
Fashion-friendly wraps
Some ostomy wraps have a pocket on the inside that securely fits your pouch and keeps it flat against your abdomen to help relieve the pressure of your pouch filling. This is helpful when you’re wearing certain kinds of clothes.
Feel good about yourself
No matter who you are, you’re beautiful. You’re carefully and wonderfully made. You're a designer original. There's nobody like you.
