Dress your body shape!

Whether slim or thick, you have a body shape, and in order to look good you need to determine the shape of your body so that you can wear the clothes that emphasize all your beautiful features. Use this fashion advise to dress to suit your body shape.

Tall & Slim: You can almost never go wrong, use your height to your advantage, wear bold prints, horizontal stripes, detailed or baggy jeans- go wild.

Pear Shape: A- shape- smaller bust, wider hips, fuller thighs, heavy legs and calves(these include petite and heavy bottom). Always try and minimise the widest areas, pay more attention on the upper part of your body, try wear clothes that will make you appear taller. Stick to tops and dresses that are halterneck, V-neck or even boob-tube, wear outfits with flare for a more flattering appearance. Wear short dressed and skirts that show off your legs, wear long dresses and skirts with heels, high-waist suits you best. Try stay away from diagonal or horizontal lines, they will either make you appear wider or shorter.

Top heavy: these include the hour glass, apple and V-shapes.  with hour glass your proportions are balanced, that is your hips and bust. Apple has wider shoulders, heavy bust, round stomach and smaller hips. V-shape is more a heavy bust and has a much smaller bottom.

Hour glass: show off your figure with fancy figure belts, wear fitted clothes and celebrate your curves.

Apple Shape: wear clothes that will draw less attention to your heavy body parts, do not wear tight t-shirts as they will show off your rounder stomach and over expose your bust, always balance your outfits. Wear skiny jeans or leggings with a  loose top.Wear clothes that make your upper body appear slimmer.
