Her shoulders are bigger than her hips but she still is a pear and every one can see it : she has wide hips, a big bottom (she is slightly overweight) and chunky legs but her upper body is quite slim.<br /> On the Trinny and Susannah Body Shape Calculator she was a "skittle", I actually think she's an heavy-bottom houglass or a pear with hourglass tendencies but that's pretty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/me-all-body-types-combined#post-92385 Wed, 09 Sep 2009 14:48:45 +0000 Qair 92385@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh sweet, Mushu, we're almost identical in body shape! I'm 5'7", 38-28-40 and always considered myself a pear since I store fat below my waist and have saddlebags. And yet, my shoulders are very broad. After seeing your final photo I took a similar one of myself and even though the cursed saddlebags add a lot of width to my lower hip, my shoulders are the same width. (Even then, my bottom half dominates the upper half in visual mass, so I guess that in YLF terms I'm a secondary pear.)</p> <p>Having such radical curves, it feels nice that somewhere there is a place where I'm considered an hourglass </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/me-all-body-types-combined#post-91789 Mon, 07 Sep 2009 07:02:50 +0000 Mushu 91789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Angie! :)<br /> Thanks for leading me out of my confusion...I can now feel better reading all the body type articles :P<br /> I think if I had bigger boobs I'd be a great hourglass but the nature didn't intend it that way. Sad. But an hourglass with pear tendencies sounds great too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/me-all-body-types-combined#post-91617 Sun, 06 Sep 2009 18:14:47 +0000 Angie 91617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're a trooper Mushu! Thank you for reposting your picture. </p> <p>Hmmmm. I’d say you’re an hourglass with pear tendencies. You have a strong shoulder line which is unusual for a pretty pear. The width of your shoulders *just* matches the width of your hips, which is why I'm going with hourglass. How does that sound? </p> <p>You are pretty :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/me-all-body-types-combined#post-91484 Sat, 05 Sep 2009 11:20:32 +0000 anne 91484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hourglass! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/me-all-body-types-combined#post-91483 Sat, 05 Sep 2009 11:04:29 +0000 Mushu 91483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here here! <a href="http://miamichaela.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/booring2.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://miamichaela.files.wordp.....oring2.jpg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/me-all-body-types-combined#post-91482 Sat, 05 Sep 2009 10:50:15 +0000 Mushu 91482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha, okay!

You are lovely!</p> <p>I can’t determine your body type from the pictures you’ve posted. I need you in jeans or leggings with a form fitting top - from the front. Think you can try again? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/me-all-body-types-combined#post-91168 Fri, 04 Sep 2009 14:03:56 +0000 Louise 91168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome Mushu, i'm rubbish at body shapes but just wanted to say hi x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/me-all-body-types-combined#post-91135 Fri, 04 Sep 2009 11:01:56 +0000 Mushu 91135@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello girls! :)<br /> No fat, no fat! But an INCLINATION to gain fat at those butt &#38; hip areas. I'm UK size 12, sometimes even 14 depending on the cut and on my butt-fat-stage. Hah.</p> <p>This forum is fab by the way, I am very happy to be here </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/me-all-body-types-combined#post-91133 Fri, 04 Sep 2009 10:39:43 +0000 Ele 91133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have such a lovely figure, Mushu! (Oh, and welcome to YLF!)</p> <p>I don't see a hint of pear about you, not with that wonderful shoulder line! At first glance, you look very hourglass-y to me. The definition of hourglass (at least here at YLF) is that your shoulders (NOT your bust, which is a common misconception) balance your hips, with a small waist in between. To me, that's what you have, but with perhaps a slightly stronger shoulder line than some?</p> <p>So, I think you're either an hourglass with inverted triangle leanings, OR an inverted triangle with hourglass leanings. I'll let Angie be the final judge, though </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/me-all-body-types-combined#post-91132 Fri, 04 Sep 2009 10:25:35 +0000 rute 91132@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My God!!! What fat? You don't have any fat, you have a nice slim body with a strong shoulder line! I'm sure you be lovely in tons of clothes!<br /> I would say inverted triangle but I'll leave to final word to the experts!<br /> Welcom to the forum and have fun dressing your fabulous body! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/me-all-body-types-combined#post-91131 Fri, 04 Sep 2009 09:42:35 +0000 Mushu 91131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello Angie and the rest of the fab looking world! :)<br /> I am new here and with a question...this is me:</p> <p><a href="http://miamichaela.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/indianlhasa.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://miamichaela.files.wordp.....nlhasa.jpg</a> (mind the lhasa apso head, my face looked weird at the said photo)</p> <p>and <a href="http://miamichaela.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/img_3451.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://miamichaela.files.wordp.....g_3451.jpg</a></p> <p>I have VERY broad shoulders, A size boobs, thin waist and I tend to gain all the fat at my hips &#38; butt. So, am I partially inverted triangle (the shoulders I'm very self-conscious about), partially hourglass (with no boobs) AND a pear (because of the butt fat)???</p> <p>I'm always lost when reading all the "dress according to your body type" because I just can't find anything fitting to me. So HOW? </p> <p>Thanks a lot for your help </p>
