I was starting to get frustrated. At almost 50 years old I want to get my figure figured out! So that I can start having some fun with my clothes instead of winging it and failing.

Play up your waist. &nbsp;Show it off! It may take some playing round to determine your best look, but I can tell you that wearing things with slight waistline definition is going to be your best bet. Good luck! &nbsp;<br />xo Mary Michele, Founder of StyleFinder (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.shopstylefinder.com">http://www.shopstylefinder.com</a>) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-body-type-13#post-1693457 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 13:38:07 +0000 Angie 1693457@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Kris. You look like a straight hourglass or rectangle - which is actually my own body type. Slap bang in the middle of the two. Enjoy your beautiful body.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-body-type-13#post-1693405 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 11:22:54 +0000 Suz 1693405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kris Ann, I am not Angie, obviously, but I just wanted to chime in to say she's super busy with the NAS preselections from today on, so she might not get a chance to look.&nbsp;</p> <p>I tried to look at the photo but wasn't able to, but it sounds like you got great advice on your other thread.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-body-type-13#post-1693322 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 03:17:18 +0000 Kris Ann 1693322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello,<br />I have gotten some advice in the forum and I thought I would double check with you.</p> <p>I'm confused about my body type. I was told by an expert that I am a rectangle. The clothing styles for that style do not resonate with me. And I feel like my waist is one of my better features. I used to think I was a pear. <p>My measurements are:</p> <p>shoulders: 38.25<br />bust: 34<br />waist 26.5<br />hips: 35.5</p> <p>[IMG]<a rel="nofollow" href="http://i65.tinypic.com/658w2c.jpg[/IMG]">http://i65.tinypic.com/658w2c.jpg%5B/IMG%5D</a></p> <p>[IMG]<a rel="nofollow" href="http://i68.tinypic.com/sy721j.jpg[/IMG]">http://i68.tinypic.com/sy721j.jpg%5B/IMG%5D</a></p> <p>I'm looking forward to knowing and going clothes shopping. :)<br />Thank you,<br />Kris </p>
