It's width that matters rather than absolute distance around, if that makes sense. So if your shoulders and hips are about the same width, and there is a noticeably smaller waist in between, that would be hourglass. If your shoulders are narrower than your hips, that would be pear. Make sense? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-shape-am-i-2#post-155161 Tue, 11 May 2010 14:42:46 +0000 Stacey 155161@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do not have a camera handy sorry </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-shape-am-i-2#post-155159 Tue, 11 May 2010 14:35:04 +0000 chewyspaghetti 155159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stacey, you should take a current photo of yourself straight on with your arms down and legs together wearing tight fitting clothes. That would be the best way to tell your shape. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-shape-am-i-2#post-155157 Tue, 11 May 2010 14:32:39 +0000 Stacey 155157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>lol thanks well I lost weight since that pic.. about 5kg less now </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-shape-am-i-2#post-155155 Tue, 11 May 2010 14:31:05 +0000 Itari 155155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I still think you're a Pretty Pear.

You upload your picture from your computer there, and then you can share it through a link. Without a picture, we can't tell you what shape you are. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-shape-am-i-2#post-155140 Tue, 11 May 2010 14:16:18 +0000 Itari 155140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Malcontent is right - I'm a busty pear and I wear the same size on top and bottom, sometimes even clothes are too snug in the bust area while being OK everywhere else.</p> <p>Stacey - go to <a href="http://imageshack.us" rel="nofollow">http://imageshack.us</a> and click on the upload button. It's really easy. Without your picture we can't say much.</p> <p>Where did you read that description? It's not from YLF, right? There are many long-waisted hourglasses out there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-shape-am-i-2#post-155138 Tue, 11 May 2010 14:16:05 +0000 Stacey 155138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have never used photobucket or the other one I do not know even what they are. I was readin up on pear and it says: Your shoulders will be narrower in relation to your hips and lower body. You will normally take a smaller dress size on your top half than your bottom half, and your bottom and hip area will appear curvier in relation to the top half of your body. When you gain weight it will be below the waistline; on your hips, thighs, and bottom, as opposed to your stomach and mid-section. Please be aware that there can be slim and fuller versions of this body shape. This is not me when I put on weight I put it on evenly all over and when I loose it I loose it evenly. Then I clicked on house glass and it said this: Your hips and shoulders will be balanced or in line with one another and your waist will be short and visibly nipped in. When you gain weight it will be evenly distributed all over the body. Please be aware that there can be slim and fuller versions of this body shape. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-shape-am-i-2#post-155129 Tue, 11 May 2010 14:07:07 +0000 malcontent 155129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stacey, standard sizes are a better fit for pear-figures than hourglass figures, usually. The eight inches the standard charts allow in difference between the waist and the bust is insufficient for the stereotypical hourglass. As an hourglass, I've always had to size up in tops to accommodate my bust. I can't see your photograph, but if your bust is only six inches larger than your waist, I'd guess you tend more toward the pear silhouette. Your friends may be more strongly defined pears though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-shape-am-i-2#post-155126 Tue, 11 May 2010 14:04:32 +0000 Queen Mum 155126@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>your piccie link doesn't work. you need to post the picture on flikr or photobucket.</p> <p>You don't have to be well endowed to be an hourglass, or have a terribly well defined waist. When you read the guidelines for the bodyshapes, which ones seem to be the ones that work best for you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-shape-am-i-2#post-155120 Tue, 11 May 2010 14:01:10 +0000 Itari 155120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Measurements are often deceiving I have 43" shoulders, 41" bust, 29" waist and 41.5" hips, but I'm a pear because of my large thighs. You don't have to be extra well-endowed to be a hourglass.</p> <p>Stacey, the path you posted doesn't work, because the picture is still on your computer. Use imageshack.us or photobucket.com to upload your pictures. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-shape-am-i-2#post-155119 Tue, 11 May 2010 14:01:04 +0000 Stacey 155119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was thinking I was an hour glass yes, but they say hour glass has big boobs and well I don't </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-shape-am-i-2#post-155116 Tue, 11 May 2010 14:00:18 +0000 Stacey 155116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Stacey/Desktop/me.jpg </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-shape-am-i-2#post-155113 Tue, 11 May 2010 13:59:13 +0000 Stacey 155113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do not have any photos that are front on.. but this is the best one I have </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-shape-am-i-2#post-155112 Tue, 11 May 2010 13:57:47 +0000 Stacey 155112@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am looing for a photo, but I never would have thought pair because I have friends who are pears and they are like a size 12 in the bottom and 10 - 8 in the top with skinnier arms...

That would be most helpful. Looking at your measurements, I suppose you're a pear or a hourglass, but a full body shot is necessary if you want an accurate answer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-shape-am-i-2#post-155104 Tue, 11 May 2010 13:44:47 +0000 Stacey 155104@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Question: I am so confused and don't know what body shape I am!
