Confused?

Don't be.Its still a fashion blog,and we will still discuss clothes.
 Today, let's talk about one of the most common dilemmas faced by women across the world-

How to dress right according to your body shape?

Not all of us are blessed with the perfect, model like figures. And especially here in North India, we people live to eat and make merry. So having that perfect body becomes very difficult.
However,any body and everybody has a right to be fashionable.
So it becomes mandatory to know what will hide our flaws and what will accentuate our best features.

Broadly, female body types can be classified into five categories. Let me help you look and feel beautiful by picking out which clothes will suit your body type the most, and which ones to avoid completely.



THE APPLE SHAPE

You are  the apple of someone's eye but you tend to carry your weight around your stomach, and your waist line is not defined. You may have fabulous legs and boobs, so wear clothes that highlight your best and hide the rest. Don't wear clothes that add bulk around your middle.

THE PEAR SHAPE  

This is the most common body shape in Indian women. You are a bottom heavy beauty with  most of your bulk showing around the hips, thighs and bottom. You might also be blessed with a flat stomach. So work up a little bulk on your relatively slim upper body.

 THE STRAWBERRY SHAPE

Sassy sexy strawberry shaped ladies are those with a figure that's bigger up on the top as compared to their bottom half due to their broad shoulders or big boobs. Their lower body is slim, so women with this shape needs to soften up their upper bodies.
