Every woman deserves to look and feel beautiful.

So Miss pearshape - You are a REAL woman - very curvatious on the hip, but not quite as much on the chest....what to do?? 3D my dear - with ruflles, bows, frills, prints, - anything that accentuates and makes the 'girls' seem more than what they are!!! :-)) So bye-bye superpadding and silicone, and hello intelligent styling!!!!! :-))     If you don't like fuss arround the neckline...why not try the placement prints (as per the white Alberta Veretti chain print top) or wider square neckshapes. Stay away from V--necklines, as these slim even more! Thanks Polyvore and Alberta Ferretti!!!!

When styling - you're creating illusions with different shapes and lines. Lines can shorten, slim, lengthen, or broaden your shape. Diagonal and vertical lines lengthen. Horisontal lines broaden. Your eyes are an amazing tool my dear! You can make things appear unlike what they are....and I will teach you the trick!! :-)) Miss pearshape - Tip 1 - Balance the shoulders with the hip area!!!   We want to create the illusion of slightely broader shoulders without making it look like you're an american football player. How??? Halternecks, halternecks, halternecks!!!

So you are pearshaped when - your hip area is larger compared to your smaller shoulders and bust. Look at the celebrities below who share your shape and LOVE it!  (lookfabulous.com) shakira Kelly Clarkson Coleen McLoughlin jlo Beyonce Princess Beatrice

Shapes, shapes, and more shapes!!!!!! Over the next few days' miss pearshape' - I will discuss what styles and silhouettes suit your fabulous shape!! Ps - do you know that your shape is one of the most common shapes in the world?? No...... you are definately not alone!!

The 2 main accessories with ANY outfit is confidence and a 'smile'.....remember you are 'wonderfully created' and although you may not be a queen, you're certainly a princess . Next time you look in the mirror don't check all the flaws, just embrace who you are and accentuate your best attributes! There is only one you, and be the best you can be!!! Viva le Diva !!!

Okay, so you're feeling a bit guilty because winter left a size bigger!! Oops, well - there is hope. Any bodyshape can go from gloom to great if you understand your shape!! Clothes can create a slimming illusion, you just need to embrace it...... If you're still not sure which shape you are....have a look at the pic!! :-)) An apple shape is well rounded on the waist and normally bigger busted. The pear (is the most common SA shape) is smaller on the shoulder and bigger on the hips. An hourglass - The shape to die for!! Well rounded all around! A rectangle - the shoulder, hips and waist are similar in shape. The triangle - broader shoulders and smaller on the hips! Which one are you??? :-))
