I hope Angie chimes in.</p> <p>My guess is that you are an hourglass with pear tendencies.</p> <p>And I also want to add that you look in perfect proportions and very fit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-identifying-body-type#post-452992 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 14:13:49 +0000 Suz 452992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome Kate! I'm not the expert either, but based on these pics, I would say you are an hourglass with pear tendencies. Lovely figure! You don't need to worry on that account. Look at Angie's guidelines for both of those and see what you think! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-identifying-body-type#post-452893 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 11:22:40 +0000 Inge 452893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah thanks, Kate!</p> <p>I'm not the expert here either, but I would say hourglass mixed with rectangle. You have a fab figure! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-identifying-body-type#post-452141 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 02:53:01 +0000 bran888 452141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hmm I'm not sure...From the front view, I think you look like a rectangle with maybe pear as secondary. From the side, I think you look more curvy. I think in terms of dressing, you should probably check out rectangle/pear guidelines. In any case, you look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-identifying-body-type#post-452105 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 01:54:59 +0000 Kate 452105@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for hourglass.

And welcome. I think you might primarily be an hourglass. I look forward to seeing some more of your posts! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-identifying-body-type#post-452058 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 00:57:11 +0000 qfbrenda 452058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm no expert... but with your shoulders close to the same width as your hips and the 10 inch difference between your hips and waist, I'm guessing hourglass.... maybe with rectangle as a secondary. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-identifying-body-type#post-452043 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 00:19:25 +0000 kate 452043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for your patience ladies! Both photos should be viewable now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-identifying-body-type#post-452004 Tue, 25 Oct 2011 23:28:38 +0000 Queen Mum 452004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Kate and welcome! I am able to see the first picture but not the second. You look fairly rectangular to me. I'm guessing though that as you lose the baby weight we'll see more of your hourglass figure come through. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-identifying-body-type#post-452003 Tue, 25 Oct 2011 23:28:27 +0000 Allison 452003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I say you are a pear with rectangle tendencies but I can only see one of the pics (the first one) and I am also a newbie! Interested to see what everyone else will say.

Seeing pics will help us figure it out, as soon as you can post them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-identifying-body-type#post-451802 Tue, 25 Oct 2011 17:49:48 +0000 HelenInCanada 451802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome Kate! I can relate to the post-baby gain...don't worry too much! All in time - and you're right, it's best to dress for your shape now to look your best.</p> <p>From your measurements, you sound like an Hourglass to me, but it would help to see a pic when you're able to post one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-identifying-body-type#post-451783 Tue, 25 Oct 2011 17:38:05 +0000 Inge 451783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A big welcome to the forum Kate!!</p> <p>You do need to be an active member (takes about 10 days) before you can directly post pictures on the forum, but if you like you can use a service like Photobucket in the meantime to upload your pics and post the link to the photos here?</p> <p>Looking forward to seeing your posts! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-identifying-body-type#post-451756 Tue, 25 Oct 2011 17:02:23 +0000 kate 451756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see now there is a 10 day wait time before posting photos is enabled. I'll come back later. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-identifying-body-type#post-451749 Tue, 25 Oct 2011 16:54:25 +0000 kate 451749@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brand new here, but loving it so far. I am in desperate need of help identifying my body type. It's about darn time I learn to buy clothes that will actually look good on ME--not the hanger, my sister, or a supermodel. So here goes...<br /> I'm 5' 5 1/2" weigh somewhere around 140 right now--I've had two babies in the past three years, with complications that caused major weight gain the first time around, I haven't lost all that weight. I'm also still breastfeeding. I weighed 125 before I got pregnant the first time, so I suppose (and hope) it's possible that I could work to that weight again, but I'm learning to accept and work with what I am now. =)<br /> My current measurements:<br /> bust 34<br /> waist 28<br /> hips 38<br /> as you can see, I'm "generous" in the hind department; it's all genetics, I've accepted it.</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/69056617@N05/6280669003/in/photostream/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/6.....otostream/</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/69056617@N05/6281187372/in/photostream/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/6.....otostream/</a> </p>
