You've logged in time at the gym, but you're still not content with your summer body. What's a girl to do? Engage in some wardrobe sorcery, of course!

No, you wouldn't need a magic wand or a fairy godmother for this. Check out these five tried-and-tested styling tips that fake a streamlined silhouette. Test them out today!

1. FOCUS ON FIT.
There's no way you'd be wearing shapewear in this heat, so go for the next best thing: clothes that fit impeccably. Sloppy, tent-like fabrics won't do your frame justice, but pieces that skim your figure will. When in doubt, go for something that nips at the waist and flares at the hips for an ultra-flattering look.

2. TRY YOUR HAND AT STRIPES.
Vertical stripes, that is. Aside from being extremely on-trend (see Marc Jacobs, Chloé, and Michael Kors), vertical stripes are great for creating a long, lean look. This is because they draw the eyes from top to bottom and underscore length, as opposed to horizontal lines, which call attention to width.

3. GO MONOCHROMATIC.
We all know the benefits of an all-black outfit, but this isn't exactly practical in the sweltering heat. Your summer slimming alternative? Wearing a bright hue from head to toe. According to celebrity stylist Nicole Chavez, "When wearing one shade, there is nothing to draw your eye to. Instead, your eye sees one shape, creating a lean silhouette. It doesn't break up the body."

4. FAVOR SMALLER PRINTS.
Want to sample summer-appropriate floral and paisley patterns? Your safest option may be small-scale prints. They are more flattering and less busy than oversized shapes, while also being subtle enough to pass off as solid colors (until you get a close-up look, of course).

5. ACCESSORIZING IS KEY.
Use accessories to your advantage! Wear jewelry near areas you'd like to emphasize and away from parts you're less happy about. Conscious of your thighs? Sport a pair of dangling earrings to draw the eyes up. Proud of your tennis-toned shoulders? Don a bib necklace to showcase sexy collarbones.
