This post is part of a series...Click the "which body are you?" tag in the side-bar,or tags in this post to view the series.Share your tips & tricks in the comments of your body type post.(of course you can comment on all if you like =])
To be or not to be...an Apple:
- Your torso is where your added weight meets.
- Your blessed with slim arms & legs.
- Your upper body is larger then your lower body.
This is easily disguised, it's just a simple fact of hiding & accentuating.
Skirts-
Runched pencil skirts are your best trick.
The High waist and is your best friend, and this skirt should be on your Christmas list.
Avoid- tight pencils & tight mini's- like the plague!
Dresses-
Empire lines ans drapped material are your best friends!
They hide unwanted extras & accentuate your bust. =]
Your looking for material that flows from the empire line to skim your torso
Avoid- Slim fitting,skin tight, can-opener-needing dresses.
Denim & trousers-
A key characteristic of an apple is amazing legs.
(lucky!!!)
another is that proportionally your top half is larger then your lower half.
This is easily hidden with flare jeans & trousers.
The hourglass cut of these balances out your mid section in ratio to your legs...
the best part is your not hiding your sexy pins.
Avoid- Skinny leg jeans!!!!!
This varies depending on how much bigger your torso is to your legs.
But generally-just avoid. you don't want to look like a lollipop.
Tops-
Again empire lines love you!
choose tops that create a waist (see above)...and skim over anything you don't want to be seen.
With length choose tops that are a little longer to account for any of the above mentioned. =]
Avoid- Tops that finish on the hem of your jeans.
High neck lines- unless you'd like your assets to look like beach balls.
(nice transition if i say so myself =p)
Swimmers-
One pieces with a runched waist detail.
This is your best option.
The detail will create a waist for you.
Avoid- bikinis...(again) like the plague!!!
High heels-
Chunky heels will Balance you out when wearing tights,skirts or dresses...
Avoid- Kitten heels and pin heels.
Random Tips-
- On swimmers-the higher the runched detail finishes on your torso the better. (creates a slimmer waist.)
- Play with colourful chunky shoes. (chunky-elongates your legs and balances out proportions & colour- draws attention to your sexy pins =])
- Look for garments that create what you don't have! ( fake it till you make it!)
Random avoids-
- Shoulder pads & masculine cuts.
- mini skirts (thought I'd say this again so it sinks in =] )
- Shorts= NO!!!!!....3/4= YES!!!
Part three of this series in a couple of days.
