Earlier this week, I gave a talk on the appropriate styles for each body type to a group of women and that’s when I realized: I fall under the “rectangle” body type. So I’d like to dedicate this post on styles to accentuate and compliment our almost non-existing curves.

I believe it’s all about proportion and balance. Forget the fashion rules on “layering” to add curves, etc. I want you to embrace your body type and even if you’re a “rectangle”, you can still wear fitted clothing!

In my younger years, I used to hate wearing fitted clothes such as jeans and leggings. I thought it made me look thinner and highlight my stick figure but I’m so happy to have found a denim brand that tailors jeans so well!

So ladies, forget the 30,40,50 squats per day. There’s a quicker and less tiring solution – Freego Super Shaper jeans! It’s currently my favorite and I am amazed on how it fits. It’s all about choosing the right cut and wash for you.

Also one of my current faves, this carry-all from Rags 2 Riches! I love carrying it to my events because it fits so many things – including my bulky SLR!

The key is balance so since I am already wearing something fitted, I opted for a slightly bulky bag and this one fits the peg of stylish and practical. It’s roomy enough for all my essentials and I love how every bag is made with love by our very own artisans.

Remember that fashion rule that you’re only supposed to mix prints if they’re sort of similar? Scratch that one out. The print of my floral top matches the woven bottom of my Rags 2 Riches bag so why not, right? 🙂
