Have you ever stood in front of your mirror and thought "somehow, this just doesn't look right" and wondered why? Or
looked through rack after rack at the store, and couldn't find anything to fit your shape? Here's all you need to know!
Dressing for your shape
 |
|
"Don't wear pants with no back pockets if you don't have much of a booty. Trust me, it just looks like you're sagging.
Always look for patterned shirts and lots of details.
If you are boxy, don't wear v-necks. They make you look even more square-shaped on the upper half. Swoop necks are okay,
low necks are all right if you have a push-up bra on. Believe it or not, you can create an illusion!
You can also use bronzing powder or sparkle lotion on your chest.
If your ribcage or chest are big, don't wear tight-fitting shirts around the torso area. But you don't want to be
too baggy either."

"I usually stick to pants instead of skirts. I feel that my legs are too skinny to show off. If I do wear a skirt,
black nylons seem to look the best instead of nude. I always make sure my jeans fit and are not baggy. I really prefer l.e.i.
Brand of Jeans as they fit nicely."

I feel that i look best if the shorts are'nt too short (Levi's 512 or 505's in size 1 or 3). The "short shorts" seem
to make my legs look skinnier. I love sleeveless tops,I just started wearing them a couple years ago. I'm always a little
worried about how they look, but feel better once i have a little color on my arms. In my opinion, lighter colors seem to
make us look less skinny too. And tops that are'nt too baggy or too long."

Where our boardies shop
Victoria's Secret - they have the water bra! Plus a whole range of cute lingerie and clothes that come in Extra
Small or size 0.
JCrews, but you might want to wait for the sales
The Limited - for pants for long-legged people. According to one member, their sizes are more european, so it's easier
to find something that fits a tall and skinny person.
Nordstrom - try them if you also have small feet, they carry many of the smaller and narrower sizes
