If you are heavier on the bottom:
• Even out your frame with small shoulder pads.
• Wear dark pants or stockings.
• Experiment with vertical lines and patterns.
• Wear long tops that go past your hips.
• Wear prints only on the top.
• Look for jackets, tailored suits and shirtwaist dresses with straight, classic cuts.
If you're not-so-curvy:
• Add dimension with patterns.
• Try loose flowery clothing and draw attention towards your face with colorful earrings and scarves.
If you're an hourglass:
• Wear fabrics that show off your figure by draping loosely.
• Emphasize your waist with a belt.
• Show off some cleavage with a V-neck.
• Celebrate your curves. Lots of women would love to be voluptuous. I, for one, encourage you to flaunt it (at the level you feel comfortable doing so, of course.)

| I love baggy dresses too! They make you look preggers, but they're cute and definitely cover problem areas perfectly. | |

| I like cropped jackets, but for most of the time they do NOTHING for your body. My bf also hates it when I wear baggy dresses (that look like nightgowns) with tights. I love it though! | |

| "Straight legged pants tend to create a leaner look than flared bell-bottoms." - This one's true. Everyone says I look model-thin in skinny jeans. | |
