You look perfectly balanced and proportioned. Love your sense of humor and I have the same (German-Scottish in my case) pasty complexion you do even though I live in sunny California! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/patty-body-type#post-297568 Sun, 13 Feb 2011 17:55:58 +0000 Patty 297568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I want to say thanks Angie for your fine blog post on rectangles and your shape diagnosis --- now I can weed out sections of clothing stores, to start, so that I'm not so overwhelmed-- shopping will be so much less stressful now and THAT in itself is the the greatest reason for THANK YOU I can give!!! </p> <p>Vix--Killer legs!! Wow. I'm looking forward to seeing what I can whip out of my closet too!<br /> Now to hunt out you other rectangles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/patty-body-type#post-297337 Sun, 13 Feb 2011 03:43:05 +0000 Vix 297337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Patty --</p> <p>I think you posted the wrong description of yourself, because those pics show a long tall athletic-looking glass o' water with killer legs!</p> <p>As another (much shorter) Rectangle, I have say welcome to the club. Your little T + jeans outfit is already in the right direction...a rounded scoop to break up the torso and add curves, jeans that are cut slim through the hip then flare out a bit...so you hardly have any work to do. ;)</p> <p>Looking forward to seeing what else you whip out of your closet.</p> <p>[Also, if you want to see a whiter shade of pale just look my direction; I'll be the one with the hat and sunblock handy.] </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/patty-body-type#post-297310 Sun, 13 Feb 2011 02:58:00 +0000 Patty 297310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zactly what I was looking for!
