I am glad you posted again, because I meant to get back to you.</p> <p>1. Yes the downside of being longwaisted usually means having short legs. But it has lots of upsides too. And because you are so slim it doesn't look like your legs are that short anyway </p> <p>2. <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2008/05/15/are-you-long-waisted/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2008/05/.....g-waisted/</a><br /> Here is Angie's post I was referring to</p> <p>3. My hips do that sloping thing too - from high hip right down to the widest point just below the crotch. Here is a photo<br /> <a href="http://s297.photobucket.com/albums/mm234/anneinoz/?action=view&#038;current=100_6960.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s297.photobucket.com/al.....0_6960.jpg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-69521 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:51:31 +0000 blessedsparrow 69521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>p.s. i'm sorry to be so annoying! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-69392 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 22:25:18 +0000 blessedsparrow 69392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>so does that mean I have short legs? :(</p> <p>thank you all for your help !! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-69143 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 05:36:04 +0000 devin 69143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Girl don't lose your shape you look great just the way you are! You have a lovely pear figure! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-69119 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 04:54:31 +0000 Maya 69119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Actually, the spot you're pointing out is your high hip, or hip bone. Your hip measurement is where your hips are widest. I think for most that is around the fullest part of your bottom. </p> <p>I have always been an hourglass, but when I first started posting, I was more of a pearish hourglass, with a smaller waist and bigger hips and thighs. I used to curse them regularly. Now that my waist has thickened and I am a more appley hourglass, I realize how stupid I was being then! </p> <p>Even though you're a pear, you're very slim and I would hardly worry about being any slimmer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-69117 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 04:34:01 +0000 blessedsparrow 69117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>About the long waist.. I agree it looks like that, but what is weird, is that my hips are pretty high up. I drew an arrow to where they actually are: <a href="http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a154/sunshinegirlies/IMG_2205-1.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i11.photobucket.com/alb.....2205-1.jpg</a><br /> but then between my hips and my thighs there is a random somewhat flat but sloping outward area in between?? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-69068 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 02:36:40 +0000 Christie 69068@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are adorably shaped! I hope when I mentioned the tiny waist that you knew I was talking about you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-69059 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 02:13:12 +0000 anne 69059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blessed Sparrow hi!</p> <p>Yay - another longwaisted girl on the forum. I was just saying the other day that there aren't many of us.</p> <p>I am also longwaisted, stong shouldered, with curvy thighs and bottom, but nowhere near as skinny or curvy as you. Don't try and slim down any more - you are right at the bottom of the healthy range as it is and I don't think you will change your basic shape.</p> <p>I do think that being long waisted makes it harder to assess body type because it is harder to see the shoulder and hips together.</p> <p>Angie did a post on long waists a while ago and perhaps someone can find it for you - I can't seem to do searches right now</p> <p>All the best and welcome! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-69024 Mon, 01 Jun 2009 23:05:42 +0000 Christie 69024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, it is hard to not compare. I always look enviously at tiny waists, and my eye is drawn to my undefined waist everytime I look in the mirror. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-69023 Mon, 01 Jun 2009 23:00:39 +0000 blessedsparrow 69023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, friends :)<br /> It's so hard, comparing oneself to others, isn't it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-68915 Mon, 01 Jun 2009 15:25:27 +0000 Christie 68915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think pear, but you are quite balanced with your pretty shoulders. Curvy bottoms are a good thing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-68893 Mon, 01 Jun 2009 14:33:59 +0000 Angie 68893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for posting pictures and welcome to the forum! You have a strong shoulder line and curvy thighs. Hmmm. I’d say a pretty pear too, but tending towards an hourglass. Long-waisted for sure. Does that make sense? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-68890 Mon, 01 Jun 2009 14:23:12 +0000 Anonymous 68890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have a fabulous figure with a nice long torso and strong shoulder line which, I think, balances out your hips nicely. Overall, to me, you look like you could tend toward a narrow hourglass. Maybe Angie will chime in soon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-68877 Mon, 01 Jun 2009 13:02:26 +0000 scorpio13 68877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep, i'd say a pear as well.<br /> A "very very slim pear" i might add!</p> <p>I'm a pear too but i'm bigger than you (5, 4" 124 pounds) and i look pretty similar [in the Hip area] when wearing Leggings.</p> <p>I don't think there's much we pears can do to slim down the hip/thigh area that much (as i workout quite a bit too &#38; this area is hard to minimise). But toning exercises for the lower body will help tighten up those areas. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-68854 Mon, 01 Jun 2009 09:08:29 +0000 Louise 68854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd say a pear<br /> Here's Angie's blog for pears <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2006/04/21/the-pretty-pear/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2006/04/21/the-pretty-pear/</a> x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-68853 Mon, 01 Jun 2009 08:18:38 +0000 blessedsparrow 68853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i just had to take some, lol.<br /> ugh now that i look at pictures of me in leggings i see the pear shape. what can i do to slim the bottom down? i jog and do cardio almost daily..</p> <p><a href="http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a154/sunshinegirlies/IMG_2205.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i11.photobucket.com/alb.....G_2205.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a154/sunshinegirlies/IMG_2206.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i11.photobucket.com/alb.....G_2206.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a154/sunshinegirlies/IMG_2209.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i11.photobucket.com/alb.....G_2209.jpg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-68847 Mon, 01 Jun 2009 07:55:36 +0000 blessedsparrow 68847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i will try to find one </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-68846 Mon, 01 Jun 2009 07:52:10 +0000 Louise 68846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Could you post a picture? x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-is-my-shape-already#post-68844 Mon, 01 Jun 2009 07:50:43 +0000 blessedsparrow 68844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't even figure out what I am. I think I'm a pear. I'm almost positive, but I think I would be a ruler or a tiny hourglass if it weren't for my round butt.</p> <p>I'm 5'2" (well, almost), about 100-102 pounds, and 21 years old. My shoulder circumference is 35.5", bust 32 a (ish), waist 24", hips (technically thighs) 34". So I think I'm a pear, but I really have no clue. Any help?<br /> thanks </p>
