Hi Terry! You're in the right spot! That's what I aim to do with my videos. I suggest diving into my Improve Your Style Series: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZoB4m6tvp8bXmrg.html where I share how to build your wardrobe and find your style plus tips on finding the right pieces as well. I'm also working on a wardrobe staples series with the first video dropping in the next week!

This video was AMAZING! I am pear shaped with a long torso. I’ve struggled for years with trying to balance it out. At this point in my life, I’m alll about accepting and accentuating this beautiful pear LOL I love that you spoke about the hourglass shape not having to be the standard. So many solid tips in this video! Thank you!!!

@@LilMissJBStyle Yes! I found the part about shirt length to be very helpful. You were 100 percent right about shirts that stop at the hip. I find those to be the least flattering for my shape. I’ll be wearing crop tops all Summer ‘22! And I also agree about the low rise jeans. They have always felt weird and watching your video confirmed it!

Thank you so much. I have been watching all these pencil thin women telling me how to dress my pear shape. It's nice to hear this info from someone who lives her pear shape every day. And, doesn't always believe it's necessary to follow "the rules." I subscribed!

Thank you so much. I want to show off my hips some days as well and other days I try to find balance. So many guides for us try to make us pear shaped women create balance.

Not to be dramatic but this video changed my life. Totally explained why I gravitate towards the styles I love (crop tops, high waisted jeans, dark bottoms) and why I’m struggling to make certain things work (anything that stops at the hips) THANK YOU!!!

Thank you for caring. I am 73 years old and have spent my entire life making the same mistakes over and over again when I was buying clothing and didn’t know why it was wrong. I just knew I wasn’t looking my best. That’s a long time and expensive to not get it right.

As well as giving me the advice I've been looking for, you have a clear and gentle voice. not too loud or quiet; really easy to watch! Thanks.

I can relate being a skinny pear shaped I thought I was skinny and rectangular until I noticed my experience with wearing straight fitted jeans with my waist. I straight up stop wearing jeans or when I did I would pin it up on the back to fit my waist. I noticed jogging pants works complimenting the waist and being Baggy around the hips

I watch a lot advice on fashion but I really like your advice. I am 63 years and you are helping me out. thanks

When I watched your video, it made me realize, my body is almost identical to you. I have a small waist and long legs, but definitely a butt and hips....and you look so great and slim in your clothes! Everything fits you so well! It makes me realize that I can feel good in my clothes if i just learn how to dress for my size better instead of buying clothes that are too tight! Thank you! 💛

So glad this video helped you out Lindsey! Your body is definitely beautiful regardless of the shape. I know it can feel overwhelming and stressful trying to find the right pieces but I urge you to just be patient and pick as hell! Like even if something feels just slightly off and you know you won't pay a tailor to fix it just set it back down. You'll save money plus learn quicker which pieces are more likely to work for you!

I like to dress in winter with opaque tights and dresses with ankle boots. In the summer, I west maxi dresses which are right through the bust and loose through my hips. An empire waist dress looks incredible on me. I have short legs and a king torso. The empire waist tricks the eye that my legs are longer. Thank you for this video.

This video was boss, you are god sent.

Dear gosh thank you so much for sharing your wisdom and advice! It's been really frustrating and downright depressing looking for clothes at times because, at best, it felt like the very few clothes that fit me did not flatter me at all. I just kind of took whatever worked. No one ever told me about what different necklines and sleeve sizes can do. I just love too how some tops and things may not be the first choice certain stylists would pick out for me, but why should I have to sacrifice what I *want* to wear just to look like an hour glass shape? I don't want to dress like I'm ashamed of my hips. It's bad enough that finding pants has been a nightmare because my hips are so much wider than my waist. That part where you said as long as you figure out how to make a piece work for you that you can wear almost anything meant so much more than you realize. For so many years, clothes were just practical things I wore to keep myself covered. Videos like this help me finally feel like I can actually have fun with clothes and feel nice in what I wear. Thank you. ♥

My go to outfit will be a crop top with wide cargo pants ✨

Hey Marie! If your shoulders and waist are smaller than the widest part of your hips you're def a pair but there are other impacts like height as well that make it difficult to tell your body shape sometimes.

I feel you Kelli. It was def a different time growing up but also humans do tend to like symmetry in things, it pleases the eye so that is also a part of why women with hips and thighs were encouraged try to dress to create an hourglass shape.
