Adjust the lighting, stand up straight, wear killer heels and you'll be good to go... naked. Active! gives you tips to look your best in the buff. And thankfully, sweating it out in the gym isn't one of them

"I feel sexiest in the nude. My husband (Jordan Bratman) has a way of making me feel sexy. When you see something you dislike and your partner looks at you and embraces it, it makes you feel good," says pop singer Christina Aguilera.



We only wish we could agree. How many of us really feel confident about parading ourselves in our birthday suit? The trick, though, lies in building self-confidence and employing long-term and short term (no, we aren't

Stand in a diagonal pose
Remember, the more you slouch the worse you'll look naked. Never slump your shoulders forward. Throw them back and keep your spine straight. When you elongate your torso, the abdominal folds get straightened. Always stand diagonally with one foot out. This will naturally cinch you in and help you appear slimmer and svelte.
