I love the holidays, but I hate the dreaded muffin top that many times comes with it. You know what I'm talking about chicas, those chichos also known as "love handles" that bulge out of pants, jeans, and even skirts. There's absolutely nothing to love about this excess skin that would make even the most confident woman feel self-conscious. It's especially annoying during the holidays when you want to look extra cute. Don't want to curb your diet this season? Don't stress! Use your wardrobe to banish it instead!

Wear the right jeans
A pair of jeans that hits much lower than your belly button is a muffin top disaster waiting to happen. Try a pair of mid-rise jeans instead. They flatter most figures and also work to tuck in your tummy. High waisted styles on the other hand can leave you with that terrible "mommy jeans" effect, and you don't want that either!

Try longer tops
The easiest way to combat a muffin top is with long, loose tops that keep your mid-section covered. Try a chic oversized sweater paired with leggings. Asos.com, $50
Consider an empire waist
Empire waist dresses and blouses are so forgiving! And they're not just flattering they're super comfy too. Modcloth.com, $40
Structured blazer
A tailored, structured blazer can help smooth your silhouette and hide that pesky pooch. Every girl should own one! Mango.com, $80
Use control undergarments
