I got split votes on whether I was 8 or X or just plain hourglass. I decided to take the parts of dressing each type that applied to me (so a-line skirts aren't great on my slight hip shelf from my 8 tendencies, for example). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/x-8-pear-shape#post-732855 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 20:18:37 +0000 BB 732855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies! And thank YOU Elisabeth for clarifying that up for me! </p> <p>I always knew I had an "odd" shaped body from the rest of my peers! Eventually, I was told I was pear shaped due to the lack of my "sisters". lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/x-8-pear-shape#post-732854 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 20:18:21 +0000 texstyle 732854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>agree with the others -- X or hourglass </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/x-8-pear-shape#post-732815 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 19:49:38 +0000 Anonymous 732815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>X shape (hourglass) like me. That's what you are. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/x-8-pear-shape#post-732803 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 19:40:40 +0000 Aziraphale 732803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>An 8 shape has a high hip, with a relatively short "small bit" in the middle. I think, BB, that you are more of an X shape -- as in the letter "X", your torso and hip line angle inward smoothly toward your smallest point. But yes, I definitely see hourglass, not so much pear. Bust alone does not decide whether you're an hourglass -- it also depends on the width of your shoulders. A pear shape tends to have smallish shoulders and upper body, when compared to the lower half, whereas your bust and shoulders look balanced compared to your hips. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/x-8-pear-shape#post-732800 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 19:36:37 +0000 Jules 732800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about... a perfect 10!<br /> I definitely don't see pear. Some variation of hourglass.<br /> Where are these posts? I'm thinking I'm an 8, but I'm not familiar with the concept. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/x-8-pear-shape#post-732797 Thu, 27 Sep 2012 19:34:55 +0000 Aziraphale 732797@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look like a perfect X shape to me!

LOL! I never knew of such an existence in an 8 shape, this is very new to me. Could there be a possibility that I'm a pear shape? My breasts aren't voluptuous but I do have a decent amount. </p> <p>Ladies, help me! </p> <p><a href="http://i1102.photobucket.com/albums/g445/LubPaj2081/DSC_0832_zps2b3330c3.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i1102.photobucket.com/a.....3330c3.jpg</a></p> <p><a href="http://i1102.photobucket.com/albums/g445/LubPaj2081/DSC_0833_zps27aa3fd9.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i1102.photobucket.com/a.....aa3fd9.jpg</a> </p>
