Hello Gorgeous Ladies!

In this week's episode of Jalisa's Fashion Files, I will be showing you all how to measure yourselves correctly in order to determine your body shape. These are the THREE areas you want to make sure to measure: bust, waist, and hips.

 

What you'll need:

 

1. Measuring strip (with inches side to make it easier)

2. Clothing that will be form fitting to your shape (remove bra!)

3. Paper and pencil/pen to jot down you measurements in this order: B, W, H

 

COMPARING ALL THREE NUMBERS:

 

1. IF YOU ARE PEAR SHAPED: Your hips will be the largest # of the three, the waist 

    being the smallest. 

 

2. IF YOU ARE AN APPLE SHAPE: Your bust and waist #'s will be larger than 

    your hips. Your hips will be the smallest

 

3. IF YOU ARE AN INVERTED TRIANGLE: Your bust # will be the largest of the three. 

    Your hips will be the smallest.

 

4. IF YOU ARE RECTANGULAR SHAPED: Your bust and waist #'s will be about the same

    and your waist will be about 1-8 inches smaller than your bust.

 

5. IF YOU ARE AN HOURGLASS SHAPE: Your bust and hip #'s will be about the same

    and your waist will be about 8-12 inches smaller than BOTH your bust and hips.
