My stomach is a little larger than I like, but I can deal with that. It's my extra between my waist and breasts. What can I do to camafloge that. I have a problem with my “spare tire”.

I'm taking your advice to heart (and to the shops), but I'm having trouble on one point: How to reconcile the rule against tops that end across the bum with the idea of a long cami that stops just above the crotch. Can you add a word about that? Thanks! Angie, thank you for your wonderful blog.

I'm the same as Maya--my measurements would indicate that I'm Pear (my measured bust is about 4 inches smaller than my hips) but I wear a large cup and I have broad-ish shoulders. So that sort of makes me look less pear like. My waist is small, but not Brigitte Bardot small, so I don't have that beautiful, curvy hourglass look. I'll stick with saying I'm an hourglass, though.

Many of us tend towards a particular body type. Generally, if you wear a size or more up from your top, on the bottom - you're pear shaped. People who are pear shaped know that they are. But it sounds like you are not. Also, hour-glass body types can have saddle bags and pear-shaped lades can carry a little extra around the middle. Sometimes you can be a mixture of a few. Hope that sorts you out! Good question Maya. Many of us tend towards a particular body type. Generally, if you wear a size or more up from your top, on the bottom - you’re pear shaped.

I have thought that I'm pretty much all of these at some point. My measurements indicate that I'm a pear BUT Since I have a larger chest to balance me out, I might be an hourglass OR Since my waist is undefined and my chest makes me top-heavy, maybe I'm an apple I'm usually the same size on top and on the bottom. Aren't most pears a size or two bigger on the bottom? Angie, how do you really KNOW your body type? I have thought that I’m pretty much all of these at some point.

BUT

OR

Since my waist is undefined and my chest makes me top-heavy, maybe I’m an apple

I’m usually the same size on top and on the bottom. Aren’t most pears a size or two bigger on the bottom?
