My Body Shape

All the experience I've had in fashion is simply shopping for my own clothes. Trust me, It's a hard task! I thought that you should know more about my body shape so you could know what I'm basing this knowledge on instead of pretending I'm oh-so-fabulous at choosing clothes for everyone! I'm not. I can choose clothes quite well for my body shape or people similar to my body shape, BUT I don't think I'm quite as adept as choosing for people with quite different body shapes. Hence, I will begin my blog with posts on clothes suiting body shapes like mine! and then hopefully, acquire the skills to be able to advise everyone in the future! 

Brutal Facts:
  • 160cm (quite short really)
  • small frame on top half of body 
  • small waist
  • brasize 8DD (however, I do believe they're shrinking as I'm not eating as much due to my new braces)
  • larger bottom half
  • large bottom
  • short legs (bit chubby/stocky)
  • face shape: squarish round? (it's changing a bit due to my braces as well)
  • straight dark brown hair up to my clavicle 
  • brown eyes
  • size 7.5 shoes
  • size 6/8 clothing (AUS)
It's always hard to find myself clothes as I'm in the niche of body shapes. Hopefully, a lot of you out there will find this helpful, and please enjoy the next post as I will be posting up the first fashion blog!! :)

It's always hard to write the first post of a blog and this one is no exception. Well, I'll be honest here, the reason I made this blog was initially just because I liked the name! I was just looking at myself in the mirror one day, and I thought "God, I look ugly". I've always prided myself on the fact that I could be rather decent looking if given the right tools! BUT take all those away from me and what would I have? I believe that beauty projects outwardly in your actions but also that your confidence in how you wear your clothes and what you wear for your body shape portrays beauty. And so, this blog will be dedicated to beauty both in and out, to prove that anyone can be beautiful, but still have their ugly moments!
