Pear Shapes - What Do Pears Look Like?
Pear-shaped peeps have
small upper bodies (narrow shoulders, small bust) and
larger lower bodies (shapely waist, full hips and thighs). If you're not sure what a pear-shaped bod looks like, then think of
bootylicious celebs like
Beyonce Knowles, Jennifer Lopez and
Christina Aguilera!
Pear Shapes - What to Wear
Draw attention away from your lower half by doing as Beyonce does and wearing
colorful, sparkly,
striped, or patterned tops.
Accessories like earrings, necklaces, pins, hats and scarves will also draw eyes upwards. When it comes to bottoms, stick to
dark colors (they have a slimming effect), A-line skirts and
low-rise, boot-cut jeans. And as for
shoes, heels can make
your legs look longer and leaner, and knee-high boots will cover up your legs if that's what you want.
Pear Shapes - What NOT to Wear
Short, tight skirts
Pants with side pockets
Tapered hems
High-waisted pants and jeans
