Body Shapes

People come in many shapes and sizes but learn how to dress for yourself and not for what you want to be. 

Read that again, understand that, and be yourself. 

I absolutely hate seeing girls who dress for the size they wish they were. There is nothing sexier than confidence. By trying to make yourself something that you're not, you look like you have absolutely no confidence. So the first step to dressing confidently is understanding your shape and realizing you are not the only one.

There are four basic body shapes:


Apple: You have broad shoulders, narrow hips, and your chest and stomach look larger compared to the rest of your body. Again, your top half is bigger than your bottom half, so ladies with an "inverted triangle" shape are included in this category for me. 

Pear: You have slim shoulders, small bust/stomach, and wide hips/thighs. 

Hourglass: Your hips and bust are almost equal and you have a narrow waist. 

Rectangular: Your waist is not much smaller than your hips and bust. There are many names for this body shape (athletic is what it's usually called) but I've heard people say banana, straight, pencil, etc. 


Well that was my little input for the day! I hope this helps every woman understand her body shape.

What I Want

Well I know I want to make a career out of fashion, I just don't know exactly what I want to do.

I plan to make this blog a place I can post all my thoughts, outfits, wants, basically anything that has to do with fashion that I love and maybe even some things that I think are bizarre! My journalism teacher did say that bad reviews are more memorable.

Anyways, I just thought I'd tell you guys what to expect from me.
I am as honest as can be when it comes to what I personally think. I won't downplay my opinion to keep readers. I'm all about diversity. I will be asking you guys for your input on a lot. When I rant, I rant.
Um I guess that's pretty much it...I really just want to say this again: I won't downplay my opinion
