Time to see if I can find a way to combine the figure 8 and apple recommendations. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-body-type-5#post-387946 Tue, 19 Jul 2011 21:39:03 +0000 Angie 387946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome to the forum!

Or a mixture thereof. I really like the bodyshapes on Imogen's site. The general term hourglass never felt like 'me', but when broken down into body shape X it sure does! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-body-type-5#post-387821 Tue, 19 Jul 2011 17:58:15 +0000 bran888 387821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hmm I don't think that you're a pear...you look like a "figure 8" to me</p> <p><a href="http://www.insideoutstyleblog.com/2010/05/real-life-body-shapes-8.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.insideoutstyleblog......pes-8.html</a></p> <p>your shoulders look a bit narrower than your high hip (pears generally have a low hip), and your waist looks noticeably smaller than your hips. I can see that you also tend to gain weight in your middle as opposed to your bottom half.</p> <p>I would think that you should check out recommendations for adorable apple here and figure 8 in the above link. </p> <p>Pear suggestions won't work for you, you should stay away from a-line skirts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-body-type-5#post-387817 Tue, 19 Jul 2011 17:51:32 +0000 Louise 387817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello cameron and welcome, I too think you're an adorable apple x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-body-type-5#post-387813 Tue, 19 Jul 2011 17:46:17 +0000 Cameron 387813@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't been able to figure out my body type, and I was hoping YLF could help.</p> <p>Some very unflattering photos:<br /> (edited to remove)</p> <p>I was thinking apple? All I've been able to able to narrow down so far is that I'm not straight, and pear suggestions don't seem right because they swamp my legs and make me look even wider than I already am. </p>
