Dressing for Your Shape: Pear Shaped

Pear Shaped: People with a Pear Body Shape have hips wider than their shoulders because their bodies store fat there and on the thighs. 


I had an exciting opportunity this weekend to help one of my coworkers pick out a couple of different outfits for her daughter's "Connecticut's Outstanding Teen" pageant this coming weekend. She is a shy woman so I didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable by taking pictures, so I am going to give some examples of things that we picked out for her. 


She is a pear-shaped woman so I wanted to slim-line the lower part of her body and really focus on the upper part with some great colors! Now, in this set, the top and the shoes are actually the ones we bought for her.

The key to this outfit is the wide-leg slacks with the light-weight blouse tucked in. This looked absolutely stunning on her! 

The next outfit we we picked out for her was a little more on the casual side with the cropped pants and the wedge. We still kept the bottoms black and then brought in a very interesting top. Pairing another cardigan with it made it transferable from outside to inside so easily!

We got a fantastic deal on the top as well which made the experience all that more awesome! Tucking in the blouse in the pant really accented her tiny waist!

The last outfit was the fanciest to wear on the final night of the pageant. I wasn't able to find the blouse online but like the one here in the picture, it was ruffled along the neckline and was cinched in at the waist giving her a great hourglass figure! Reusing the accessories each night kept the cost down on all the outfits. And they were too beautiful to use only one night.

I can't wait to see all the pictures from the whole event next weekend! I know she will look fantastic, maybe even outshine all the contestants!
