Fashion Tips and Stuff!
Hi SISTERS and brothers,
I’ll be posting interesting tips on fashion whenever I can so we can all rise up to a whole new level of “prettiness and shuai-ness”! :D
For this few weeks I’ll be posting up information about different body shapes for both females and males respectively. Knowing our body shape and type is essential so that we would know what kind of clothes flatter and what kind of clothes would amplify our flaws. Tips on how we can better improve our body shape would be included as well.
Well, these few weeks I’m going to touch on female body shapes and types. Brothers can take a look as well (to impress the females!!!) as I would post the information for male body types after I’m done with the females. SISTERS! Let’s equip ourselves so we can help one another and stun everyone! WOO~
OK, let’s start!
FEMALE BODY SHAPES
Basically there are 5 common types of body shapes.
FEMALE BODY SHAPES
Basically there are 5 common types of body shapes.
1) The "A Frame" / Spoon / Pear
CHARACTERISTICS:
We have extra weight around the lower part of our body, mainly on the hips, thighs and buttocks. We have a small waist (sometimes long as well) and a small bust.
GOAL:
Minimize hips and thighs and also create an illusion of curves above the waistline.
OPT FOR:
a) Long A-line skirts
(mostly for office styles)
c) delicate chiffon shirt with puffed sleeves
d) shoulder enhancing shrugs/boleros
e) chunky heels
TRY TO AVOID:
a) bias cut skirts
b) pencil skirts
c) skinny jeans
d) ankle straps
CELEBRITIES WITH THIS SHAPE:
Katie Holmes and Sandra Bullock
YOU MAY WANT TO TRY:
Widen your shoulder circumference and back to achieve balance.
