I had to laugh a little because I always look horrible in pictures!</p> <p>@Alaskagirl - I'm not very comfortable with surrending the waist yet. I feel like it makes me look bigger than I am but maybe my eye is just not used to it. I definitely feel more relaxed in tops that are looser though since I am not worried about my stomach pooching out the whole time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-help-please-3#post-363165 Wed, 08 Jun 2011 17:29:15 +0000 catgirl 363165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look like an slim and pretty hourglass to me. </p> <p>I have the same issues with my midsection and do a lot of surrendering the waist to conceal it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-help-please-3#post-363156 Wed, 08 Jun 2011 17:19:16 +0000 Anonymous 363156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look like a slender hourglass to me, but if your concerns with dressing are about your midsection, you should read the suggestions for apples. I suspect that anything that draws the eye up to your pretty face (Love your expression!) would be a plus. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/body-type-help-please-3#post-363147 Wed, 08 Jun 2011 17:03:08 +0000 Carolyn 363147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You'd think I would be able to figure this out but I am stuck. I feel like I could fit almost every catagory! </p> <p>I think my shoulders are slightly wider than my hips but I don't think my hips are narrow enough for inverted triangle.</p> <p>Rectangle? I do have some definition in the waist but not a whole lot and definitely do have curve in the hips.</p> <p>I feel apple-ish because of major fluffy bits in the middle that you can't see in the photo. And there's no way I'm posting a side view! If I gain weight it goes straight to my stomach area.</p> <p>I have a flat bust and flat bottom so I don't feel like I'm an hourglass even though I know that it has more to do with shoulder width compared to hips. But again, not a super defined waist like most hourglasses.</p> <p>I'm pretty sure I'm not a pear but sometimes I feel like I am if I'm only looking at my bottom half.</p> <p>Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'd like to find out what I'm supposed to be wearing but my main concern will always be disguising the midsection. Thanks! </p>
