Best of the Blog: Most Read Summer Posts

I am usually quite on top of things. But with the kids back in school, new routines, back to school nights, a busy month at work, lack of sleep and yoga…all ON TOP of me thinking today was Monday for most of the day (sheesh!) – today’s planned post is not happening.

Therefore, I am always a bit reluctant to write a “best-for-your-body-type post”, as I hate any rules that dictate what we should wear. That said, over the years, I have been asked to write a post that offers some guidance on what silhouettes, best flatter specific body types. Being I am only one body-type myself, I can’t possibly know what it is like to walk in someone else body. But, from years of selecting styles and working with all body types in a retail environment, to studying what works well on different women, I have gleaned some insight, as to what styles best flatter certain body types, and am happy to provide some guidance.
