What's your Shape?

Have you ever wished you could have a personal shopper, someone straight from What Not to Wear who could guide you during those frustrating online shopping trips where you’re just not sure what looks good on your body type?  Heck, there have been some disastrous shopping trips to brick & morter stores where the white lies of your shopping buddy will buy you one unflattering wardrobe.  But there is a solution.

At MyShape.com, you can not only get a detailed description of what styles are right for your body type, but you also get a plethora of designer brands to choose from – each piece complimenting you and your look.

One of my family members turned me on to this.  And it’s not like one of those dorky magazine quizzes where you have to decide whether or not your face is an oval or a square.  You actually enter in your measurements using a measuring tape.  This part is a bit tedious but the website has a cheerful seamstress-esque voice-over to guide you along.  And you might need a friend.

After selecting your style preferences – from designers to fabrics – and filling out your measurements, you’re presented with a variety of styles, looks, etc. each to fit your body type.  And your information is saved to your profile so you can revisit or change measurements as needed. 

Since you’re going to be taking back most of those over sized shirts and extra pajama sets your got for Xmas anyway, why not take a look at this website first.  Find your shape, and then pick out something that’s a little more va-va-voom for your New Years Eve parties.

Enjoy!
