Flatter Your Figure - Perfect pieces for pear shapes

Filed under: Clothing, Flatter Your Figure, Fashion, Best of the Season, How to Wear

Some women have a little junk in the trunk, but a bit of booty does not a pear make. We're talking about women who have slim shoulders, a smaller chest and torso, and then considerably wider hips, thighs, and legs. While there are some styles you should definitely shy away from, there are plenty of looks that will be just fabulous on you.

Basically, we want to simultaneously draw attention to your slimmer parts while balancing out your top and bottom. Does this mean you're resigned to a life of black slacks? Oh, hell no! You can get funky with your style as well, but we've got a few suggestions to get you started. And, by the way, black slacks aren't necessarily a bad idea.
