In today’s day an age, women’s appearance is constantly under a microscope. Due to countless social media accounts with the help of filters that adjust the imperfections of the now perfect models, it is next to impossible for the average woman not to feel insecure about some part of her appearance.
As I sit here, writing this article, hoping to make everyone reading this feel more confident, I glance at my own stomach and suck it in. Being conscious of our bodies and it’s imperfections is a good thing as long as it does not affect our confidence when we face the mirror. Beauty is subjective and is only skin deep. Be confident in all that you are!
To feel even better in our skin or clothes, the stylists offer advise on how to accentuate one’s assets and avoid drawing the eye to the imperfections. There are many body types out there but somehow it has been narrowed down to the main four:
APPLE SHAPE
Well-proportioned
Wider shoulders than your hips
Not a defined waste line
Recommended:
A-line & flowy tops
Single button jackets that can be worn open
Strapless dresses & maxi with a pronounced neckline
Skinny jeans or leggings
PEAR SHAPE
Waist is wider than the chest
Hips are wider than your shoulders
Fuller rear
Recommended:
Fitted, patterned tops
A-line & cropped jackets with big lapels or wide collars
A-line skirts & dresses just below the knee
Dark (subtle) bootcut or flared bottoms
HOURGLASS SHAPE
Curvy
Well defined waist
Measurements of your waist & hips are close to the same
Recommended:
Fitted tops with lower neck line
Cropped & fitted jackets
Fitted dresses, wrap or flared in any length
Fitted bottoms & skinny belt to emphasize the waist
RECTANGLE SHAPE
Not curvy
Measurements of your waist & hips are close to the same
Straight waist & not particularly defined
