Do you ever find yourself grappling with the age-old dilemma of figuring out your body shape while trying on clothes Read books not comments shirt? It’s a common struggle, and believe me, you’re not alone. In fact, even as a personal stylist and color consultant, I’ve had my own share of fashion conundrums. Let me take you on a journey through my own experiences and insights, and show you how understanding your body equation can be a game-changer in your style journey. Here’s the style struggle I answer in this video from a lovely reader: I struggle with what body shape I am. When I try clothes on, my heart tells me one thing but my eyes tell me another. This is probably silly but it worries me and I wish I could feel better. Picture this, before I learned what I know now (aka became an image consultant): I had an affinity for clothing that accentuated an hourglass silhouette. I absolutely loved that look and aspired to emulate it in my outfits. Those fit-and-flare dresses with intricate waist detailing never failed to catch my eye. But here’s the catch—my body wasn’t naturally inclined towards the classic hourglass shape, instead, I’m a straight-up H shape with little waist- definition. Consequently, what I envisioned in my heart wasn’t quite aligned with what I saw in the mirror. The result? A feeling of being ‘off,’ unattractive, and even more than a tad frumpy. This realization led me to a crucial understanding: dressing the body you have today is the key to feeling confident and beautiful. Life is a journey, and so is our relationship with our bodies. It’s not uncommon for our bodies to change over the years, whether it’s due to natural shifts or the impacts of various life stages such as pregnancy and birth to menopause. Reflecting on my own experience, I realized that clinging to an idealized body shape (that I never had) and even the body I had early in my adulthood was limiting and even a tad disheartening. Because I don’t have a defined waist, the oversized top style works for my body (when worn with a slim bottom garment), so there is always an upside for every downside as those body shapes that have the defined waists (X, A and 8) find this trend really doesn’t work for them like it does for the straighter shapes (H, V, O). Celebrate what you have and learn what works for you!

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had people say to me Read books not comments shirt “Does anyone really notice what I wear?” or “It doesn’t matter what I wear” and “who really cares about what I wear?” and this tells me that the person I’m speaking to is unaware of the power of image and wardrobe. They have not read the research nor noticed that characters in TV and movies have very specifically defined costumes that help tell the story. And though you may not be a character in a TV show, you are the lead protagonist in your own life story. If you ever were to write a memoir about your life, your wardrobe would be an element of that story. Every novel you read will have some description of how characters look, as this enables us to both create an image of them in our mind (making them more lifelike) as well as telling us something about who the character is, their life, lifestyle, state of mind and so much more. Your style recipe needs to work for you and your whole personality, identity, and lifestyle. It needs to be congruent with you and your message and values. We all need to be ourselves, and identifiable as a unique beings rather than a clone. Your wardrobe can really help you get what you want in your life as it helps others see the expert you are on the inside on your outside. You have to get dressed every day anyway, so why not use your image as a tool to help you rather than hinder you in your daily pursuits as well as your life goals.

Nice shirts for the price
I am happy with the shirts, the are not so heavy and not so thin. the quality is good. I wear size M, but I was thinking to buy size L because most the reviews complaint about the shrinkage. anyhow, I decided to buy size M, when I got the shirts they were quite large for size M. after I washed and hot dried them, they shrink a bit, now they fit me very well. the only complaint is the color. i bought army green, but I was expecting a little bit more darker green. the army green I got is quite old, looks like Vietnam war green…
