Fashion Focus: Inverted Triangle Pt. 1

Hello Lovlies! It's time for another Fashion Focus!

When you look in the mirror, does your body shape look like a strawberry or a cone?
- If you answered yes, then you have an inverted triangle shape.

Inverted Triangle Characteristics

• Broad shoulders and/or bust
• Slight waist definition
• Hips slimmer than shoulders
• Seat can be flat

You want to draw attention to the bottom half of your body instead of emphasizing your upper body.

If you of have this shape, one of the best ways to have fun with your figure is to show off your legs while defining your waist.

However, don't go with a skirt that is too short or else you will appear top-heavy.

Balancing Tricks

• Define the waist
• Reinforce the vertical axis
• Add volume on the bottom

Closet Craze: Neapolitan Flavor

This is a completely Nordstrom inspired outfit, so I cannot take credit for dreaming up this elegant ensemble.

What I love about this outfit is that while the woven top and flowy skirt are the perfect pair for summer time, the soft colors work together to make this a transition outfit for fall.

This look has such a classy look and feel that makes me feel feminine and beautiful. And as my friend/photographer mention, it looks like a neapolitan ice cream sandwich.
