Ask Angie: body type help

jenny1963

Hi!
I need help!!
I always thought I was a pear, but am not sure now if I'm a ruler.
I do know that I have short legs, LONG rise, long torso, long neck, narrowish sloping shoulders, and am tallish/slender (5"7"). I also appear more slender in clothes than I am. My measurements (which seem not to matter too much here) are 35.5" x 29.5" x 38". I carry weight in my thighs and butt, and since I had a kid, also in my tummy.
I will attempt to post some pics that I took myself. Sorry for the lame quality. I'll ask my husband later to help me. How to attach pics?

Jenny, in a few days along with posting a few replies on the forum you'll be able to attach photos. For body type determination, we would need to see a photo head on and from the side in fitted clothing (or if you're comfortable with it, something like leggings and a fitted tank), hands to the side, feet together; the important thing is actually the relationship between your shoulders and hips, not necessarily your bust.

Hope we can help you in a couple days when you can post a photo! If you'd like quicker feedback, you could post the images somewhere else and provide us a link to them here.

EDIT: Oops, just saw your other thread! Looks like you've got a link up there ^^

Thanks, Aida!! I'll have my husband take some better pics. I'm too spazzy with my iPhone.
