Ask Angie: what size am I

Sounds like hourglass +
inverted triangle, since your shoulders are wider than hips. There are 2 types of hourglass though-8 shape, and x shape-depending on where widest point is (higher or lower). It makes a big difference in what looks right!

Yes, my shoulders are wider and that poses lots of issues for me. Most sleeved shirts are too short in the shoulder, too tight on the arms or too short for long sleeves. I am also flat chested which is a major problem. I am 103 lbs of muscle i am not thin or skinny more like compact! The sizes that I have been reduced to is a 10/12 girls. I also have tiny wide feet 3W!

It would be best to see visual because of shoulder width.

I will get a pic of me so you can see. I never take pics of myself ever!
Also how do I post a pic so you can see?

You need to respond to some other posts and also wait I think it is 3 days, then you will become what is called an Active Member rather than just a Member, and will be able to post your pics.

If you are willing to, it would be quite helpful if you posted a picture, preferably with clothing that emphasizes your body shape. Clear, front view without the use of angles helps too, but some can probably pinpoint your body type regardless.

This is a pic of my body shape. I weigh in at 104! This is one of the last times I was able to wear a bra, and it was too big for me. Every time I lift my arms the bra goes over my AA cup size and keep having to pull it down. I have never had a bra that fit, ever!
