With this post I wanted to share with you my body shape and how clothes look on me if I was to wear it at my waist where a skirt should normally be worn. How my shape makes clothes look strange on me and how I give myself a different shape by wearing a skirt under my bust and using this as my waist for dresses.

Below is how I wear this outfit. Pulled up to my bust and tucked in to make my bust the main focus. Not that you could miss it but I like this shape. See how I style this outfit in my next blog post tomorrow!


Here I have untucked the top and a lot of people will wear it like this and it looks fine but I have become more of a box shape.


This is my actual waist and it is not straight so thing sit at a slant on my body. My bum raises the back which I do not like. My belly is is a Double Belly (DB) and goes in at my belly button. I have no problem showing my belly and having a Visible Belly Outline (VBO) in bodycon dresses but for this style of skirt I prefer it like the top picture.


Untucked and again people will wear an outfit like this and be happy with it but I just wanted to show how the same two items can look so different when you change your positions of wearing them.


See what a difference it makes to the shape of the outfit. This can work for any style skirt and top so give it a go with some of your items and take a few pics to compare and see what you like best. Leave a link in the comments if you blog about your own shape and how it changes.
