I find it hard to find the
right jacket for my fit sometimes. Everyone has a different body type and we all know
that what works for someone with a pear shape is not going to work for someone
with an apple shape figure. That’s just the way the fashion world works. I
didn't make the rules, but I am most definitely going to help you follow them.
Here are a few tips for my fashionistas out there:
If you are pear shaped:
Emphasize your waist and arms, add volume to your shoulders and upper body and
minimize your hips. Wear jackets that hit right above the waist. Stay away from
long jackets.
If you are wedge shaped:
Accentuate your lower body while softening your shoulders and upper body. Look
for jackets that create the illusion of a waist.
If you have an apple body
shape: Elongate the torso, show off your legs and use fashion to create the
illusion of a waist. Go for V-neck tops under your jacket to create the
illusion of a longer torso. Always wear a bra that offers good lift and support;
you never know who will be looking.
If you are pear shaped: Show
off your curves... without going overboard. Don't ever hide your curves with
baggy jackets it will give the illusion that you are bigger then you are.
Always wear a good bra so that you can showcase your feminine assets.
If you have a rectangular
shape: The waist, hip and shoulder widths are similar. Wear tops with collars,
ruffles and details to flatter your chest. Wear a good bra that will make the
most of what you have, and always try to layer to add more dimensions to your
look.
I hope my this was helpful
and that you can find yourself choosing the right jacket for your body type. No
matter what size you are you should always feel beautiful in your own skin.
When you take pride in your appearance the world will follow. Work with what you have and rock it
like nobody’s business. Confidence is KEY when it comes to style.
