What's your body type?

When shoppping for the perfect attire we must take into consideration our body type, but what is "body type"?

There are 5 different body types, once you identify yours it will become a breeze to dress!

Body of triangle or pear: Which means that the lower part is wider than the upper part. In other words, the hips are slightly wider than the shoulders and the waist is very well defined.

Body of apple: Women with this body tend to accumulate weight in the middle part of the body. They usually have thin legs and arms, an undefined waist, as well as rounded hips and shoulders. Although they are not wide of shoulders or back, they can have an abundant bust.

Body of rectangle: They are characterized by having little chest and hip, and their body is relatively flat. Girls with this type of body have defined and straight shoulders.

Hourglass body: The hourglass is the one that maintains the harmony between the upper half of the body and the lower half, with a waist with less size than the rest of the parts.

Inverted triangle body: Women with this type of body usually have an athletic build. It is characterized by a broad back and less hip than shoulders.

How to dress depending on the type of body?

Depending on the form, it is convenient to know some tricks and tips with which you can take advantage of your body:

Body of triangle or pear: If you want the lower part of your body to look thinner, make sure to use the jeans a little tighter and that the tops can help to create a more balanced frame. You can also attract attention to the upper part of your body with garments with flights, ornaments or any detail that highlights to attract the looks up.

Body of apple: The body can be worn with clothes that create an elegant appearance. Clothing that is too tight should be avoided, as should clothes that are too loose. The neckline in the form of "V" is essential, as well as the skirts above the knee and straight leg pants.

Body of rectangle: The most important thing when working with rectangle silhouettes is to try to create the illusion of curves. A-line skirts and tight trousers at the ankles are a good choice, as are short jackets and wide lapels.

Body of hourglass: The best options are garments that accentuate the waist, as well as the neckline in "V" that tends to lengthen the figure. As for pants, the best option is straight cut.

Body of inverted triangle: Always try to balance the hips with the top, so that the shoulders do not look prominent. Blouses with a "V" neckline are a good option, as are all those that do not show off the shoulders. Peplum skirts or overskirts are also a great option to balance the figure. Use light colors on the bottom and leave the dark colors for the top. In addition, if you wear long necklaces they will give verticality to your body and, consequently, balance.

I encourage you to LOVE every inch of you no matter what your body type is.

Embrace your uniqueness, there are no two bodies alike, you are irreplaceable, and above all, beautiful. Do not be afraid to show who you truly are, beauty come from whithin.
