Every day you see women that look amazing in everything that they wear, everything suits perfect on them, but have you ever thought that they simply know what to wear?! To have a perfect body is a benefit but it's not crucial for looking really good. The secret is to find the clothes that fit to your body type and you'll become a witness of your greatest makeover. The primary rule of dressing is that the clothes that you are wearing should accent all the fine parts of your body and to hide all the imperfections. Now it's time these makeover games to begin.
Usually the women's body types could be divided on two types: pear-shaped body and apple-shaped body. The pear-shape is notable with hips wider than shoulders and round thighs. The apple-shaped body is usually softer around the middle, with heavier breasts, narrower hips and slimmer legs. If your body belongs to the first type, the point is to accent a shapely waist, delicate upper body and attractive shoulders and arms. If your body has the apple shape, bring out your womanly, show off your legs and great cleavage.
The basic rule for the ones with pear shaped body is to avoid anything too tight. Choose A- line skirts that hit around the knee are. They are ideal because draw attention away from problem areas, opposite of the miniskirts which generally give an accent to the heavy thighs. The pants should not have flashy details like big pockets or excessive zippers around the hip area and they shouldn't be patterned or light-colored. A straight or slightly bootcut leg of the pants is the most flattering. Shorts are also tricky so choose lightweight, loose-fitting shorts, definitely not a bike shorts. When it comes to the tops, avoid too-baggy or too-tight tops. Look for fitted but not skin-tight T-shirts. Remember - V-necks, turtlenecks and open collars call attention to the face, which is always a good thing. The dresses should nip in at the waist and slightly flare out over hips and thighs. Sleeveless and strapless dresses are good choice because they discover your pretty shoulders and arms.
The ones with apple shape could balance the top-heavy figure with an A-line skirt. This gives the look of the waist. The pants should have flat-front, never pleated. Choose some that have a lower rise than the natural waist. Play with the pockets - front pockets help disguise a tummy problem, back pockets can help define a flatter rear common to top-heavy women. Pencil skirts or skintight jeans should be avoided because they will only accentuate top heaviness. Show your nice legs with shorter skirts. The tops should not be too tight or too baggy - V-neck, boatneck, turtle and mock necks and shirt collars are most flattering necklines. One-piece dressing could be tricky for you. Best bets: A sleeveless black sheath, a soft princess dress, a strapless dress with corseted top. Don't cover your self from head-to-toe, showing a little skin, whether it's bare arms or shoulders, is much more flattering.
And maybe the most important thing, find your own style, choose colours and clothes that show the best of you, the fashion trends are not important.
