Hello Fashionistas.
Happy Memorial day! I hope you are having a splendid time hanging out with friends and family. Memorial day, to me, is the mark of Summer time! Which is a whole different ball park, fashion wise, compared to Winter and Spring. Its time for swim suits and shorts galore. It can be difficult to figure out what suits your body and personal style, especially as a teen when your body is still currently developing. To make sure you have the best fit and cut for your body shape so you can work all your favorite summer pieces, I wanted to make a post all about body shapes!

Strawberry
If your measurements came out with your bust being bigger than your waist and hips, you are a strawberry . You tend to have large shoulders and chest with a slim waist and hips. To balance out your body and get that hourglass shape, wear pleated or a-line skirts and wide legged pants.
Banana
If you have a slim chest and hips with a narrow waist, your a banana. You are the next best thing to a hourglass shape. You can wear basically anything and rock it effortlessly!
Apple
If all your weight goes straight to your stomach and your bust waist and hips are basically all the same size, you are an apple. To create that defined waist that you are after, I suggest necklines and hemlines that will elongate your body and garments that synch in at your most narrow part of your body.
Pear
If you have a slim chest and waist with round hips, you are a pear. To balance out your body proportions, try tops with a texture or design that makes your chest look bigger.
Hourglass
Finally, if you have an hourglass your chest and hips are about the same measurements with a slim waist. You have a body type that almost every girl strives for. To show off curves, try clothes that hug you body in all the right places and flare out to cover all the lumps and bumps you want to keep hidden!
