Hopefully Angie will chime in.</p> <p>You have a very pretty slim figure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-determining-body-type#post-183223 Tue, 13 Jul 2010 21:26:07 +0000 beca109 183223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for the nice compliment. I keep beating myself up because I have athletic thighs and fuller seat thanks to running/squats (findings jeans that fit those areas is a struggle and often the waist is too big too) and it doesn't help that I've gained a few since this pic was taken and of course the weight likes to gravitate to those areas. But anyway I appreciate any help I can get on figuring body type out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-determining-body-type#post-183220 Tue, 13 Jul 2010 21:09:41 +0000 Louise 183220@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>beca- I'm not much good with bodyshapes but I wanted to welcome you and say whatever bodyshape you turn out to be you have an amazing figure x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-determining-body-type#post-183219 Tue, 13 Jul 2010 21:08:08 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 183219@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You do look amazing in that bathing suit, wow. I'm no expert but I think you might have slight pear tendencies, but mostly hourglass with a defined shoulder. There's a fair bit of length between the smallest part of your waist and your hips, which might be deemphasizing your waist somewhat. Also, a full behind might be making your measurements seem more pear-shaped than you really look from the front. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-determining-body-type#post-183214 Tue, 13 Jul 2010 20:37:21 +0000 beca109 183214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I never really thought about how my shape looks one dimensional. I always thought I was a pear or maybe hourglass because my hip measurement was larger than my bust but I have a smaller waist in comparison with my hips. However when I look at this picture, I don't see a really defined waist. Hmmm, maybe it's because my height stretches me out and the my measurements do not really translate into real curves since I'm taller. I also have a full behind which really accounts for the bigger hip measurement. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-determining-body-type#post-183212 Tue, 13 Jul 2010 20:25:42 +0000 April 183212@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Beca -- It's slightly hard to tell with your hands on your hips, but you look like a delicate hourglass to me, with a strong shoulder line. Also, you look amazing in a bathing suit! </p> <p>I think the reason you're having trouble figuring it out by using your measurements is that you really get body shape from the measurements straight across the front of you, not all the way around your body. You want to think width, not depth, or your shoulders, waist, and hips -- does that make sense? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-determining-body-type#post-183211 Tue, 13 Jul 2010 20:16:28 +0000 beca109 183211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am quite confused as to what body type I am. I have looked at several websites and input my measurements and I have gotten back results such as rectangle, hourglass, pear. So I am a little confused. Here are my measurements:</p> <p>Shoulders 41, Bust 35.5, Waist 27, Hips 37, Height 5'10"</p> <p>Can anyone help me on what body type I really am? Hopefully this pic might help. (Apologies in advance for this pic, its a swimsuit pic and it's all I have for a full body shot right now - I hate being photographed) I hope this link works.</p> <p><a href="http://i784.photobucket.com/albums/yy121/beca109/front1.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i784.photobucket.com/al.....front1.jpg</a> </p>
