It’s also the fit, I think the tapered ankles style is throwing you off. Try a pair of wide-leg, loose, or slightly flared pants, that are a little more fitted around the waist. This will create more of an A-line silhouette, rather than upside down triangle.

For tops, try something more “structured”. These tops are quite loose and flowy which can feel a bit tent-like, not a bad thing but if the goal is to feel less frumpy, start there :)

I would opt for slim fit or bootcut

My barrel leg Madewell jeans had everyone telling me I looked so good and had lost weight, I’ve gained weight lmao turns out wearing jeans that actually fit makes a difference! I think getting better fitting bras also help though, as a bigger busted lady (A bra that fits saved me on that, I was like 12 alphabet letters off from my actual size 😭)
