And your waist is teeny! According to your measurements I would opt for hourglass, but when I look at you photos I think you might be an hourglass with pretty pear-tendencies. Hope it helps? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-whats-my-body-type#post-354406 Mon, 23 May 2011 15:45:31 +0000 Aunty 354406@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Ochoc, welcome, if you are talking serious shopping you have come to the right place </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-whats-my-body-type#post-354312 Mon, 23 May 2011 11:48:07 +0000 Polly (thunalata) 354312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks as though you're going to have quite a lot of fun!

I don't even have a single A-line skirt in my wardrobe! It seems I haven't been dressing right for my body type at all.</p> <p>I hope I'll prove to be a quick learner... There's a wedding I'm attending in a few weeks and I'd like to be able to look my best. It seems the situation is calling for some serious shopping </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-whats-my-body-type#post-354055 Sun, 22 May 2011 15:54:05 +0000 Angie 354055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome to the forum! I am with Ornela and Nancylee :)</p> <p>You have a fabulous figure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-whats-my-body-type#post-354051 Sun, 22 May 2011 15:50:43 +0000 nancylee 354051@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote with the rest for a (a very slim!) pear with hourglass as a secondary body type. At 5'9" and 128 lbs. you have a lovely slim figure that should be a snap to dress in flattering ways. YLF will have you looking fab in no time! You've come to the right place for fashion advice and a supportive environment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-whats-my-body-type#post-354026 Sun, 22 May 2011 15:05:20 +0000 rute 354026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't see any problem! You have a nice slim figure! You look like pretty pear to me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-whats-my-body-type#post-354019 Sun, 22 May 2011 14:39:35 +0000 Ornella 354019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>To me it looks like pretty pear with hourglass as secondary type. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-whats-my-body-type#post-354012 Sun, 22 May 2011 14:18:30 +0000 anne 354012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>People are really friendly here.</p> <p>I am wavering between pear and hourglass. Not apply at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-whats-my-body-type#post-354010 Sun, 22 May 2011 14:11:14 +0000 Polly (thunalata) 354010@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome OChoc!</p> <p>I'm not good at this but I'd hazard an initial guess at hourglass or pear? You seem to have a slim waist.</p> <p>Anyway, someone more knowledgeable will be along soon!</p> <p>ETA Yes it is scary posting pictures, but it's definitely the best way to do it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-help-whats-my-body-type#post-354009 Sun, 22 May 2011 13:55:53 +0000 OChoc 354009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi!</p> <p>I am new to this forum and shy to post pictures of myself but I'm in a desperate need of help and people seem really friendly here, so I'll go ahead anyway :)</p> <p>I am totally lost regarding my body type and seem unable to find clothes that flatter my figure in the least. I love pretty clothes and fashion but cannot seem to make it work for me.</p> <p>I think my biggest problem is my hip/thigh area that is a weird shape but after having a baby I no longer have as much definion in my waist area that I used to either. Am I an apple or perhaps a pear? </p> <p>I'm 5'9'' and around 128lbs, my measurements are 37-27-38. After taking the photos I notice that my scoliosis is kind of apparent in those, which might make analysing them a little more difficult.</p> <p>Here are my photos, one from the front and the other from the side to better show my not-too-toned tummy:</p> <p><a href="http://s631.photobucket.com/albums/uu39/OChoc/YLF/?action=view&#038;current=front.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s631.photobucket.com/al.....=front.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://s631.photobucket.com/albums/uu39/OChoc/YLF/?action=view&#038;current=side.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s631.photobucket.com/al.....t=side.jpg</a></p> <p>Password to the album is YLF2011 </p>
