Chala SP13-1
The most important thing to remember with your Chala body is to emphasize your waist to show off your proportions! Find a collarless blouse that has structure, definition or visual appeal like the one above to make the most of this look!
  1. Chalas look great in fitted pencil skirts. Pull in some visual drama with a colored skirt & add a statement belt to be sure there is plenty of definition given to your waist. If you are shorter, keep your hemline at the knee, the exposed skin on the lower legs helps you look taller.
  2. Chalas can pull off almost any pant style, including a print. To keep this funky trend flowing downward we capped it with a bold shoe for a great color pop!
  3. When going casual with a blouse keep it simple, too many accessories will take away from the casual feel. Keep your hemline longer to add more height to your look & try on a bold, colorful pair of heels to round out this look while keeping its lower key style. 
  4. Pair your blouse with a funky printed skirt. Try tucking the blouse in & layering on a solid belt to give your waist the attention it deserves without competing with skirt. Chalas can pull of an A-line look as long as the skirt has enough volume to keep your proportions balanced.

Suza SP13-1

The most important thing to remember with your Suza body is to create the illusion of a smaller waist and show off your lean arms & legs! Find a collarless blouse that  wraps, has front/side ruching, or front knot detailing like the one above to make the most of this look!
  1. To get a great casual look, Suzas should choose a jean that hits lower on the hip and ensure that the blouse hits at least 2-3 inches lower. Keep your hemline longer and pair it with a pair of bold shoes to help highlight your lean legs and give the illusion of more height! 
  2. Suzas are known for having great legs, so try out a funky mini skirt that hits mid thigh and pair with funky heels to match for a great, super trendy look.
  3. Go sparkly! Fine some shinny or sparkly tights! Not only will this show off your great gams but it the boldness will give your bottom half more proportion.
  4. Suzas can easily pull off adding a skirt with texture and color to balance out the lower half beautifully and nude heels help to elongate and show off her already fabulous legs! Keep your hemline in check around or above the knee.

Lola SP13-1
The most important thing to remember with your Lola body is to create balance between the upper half and the leaner lower half without loosing your waist in the mix! Find a collarless blouse that has slight ruffles, a neck tie, or lace like the one above to give your whole look more feminine appeal!
  1. Lolas have leaner hips and great legs!Show them off in a funky way by pairing your blouse with a printed tight or pant. Pair it with a great heel & there is no stopping you!
  2. Lolas, show off those great legs! Pair up your blouse with a mini that has volume, bold print or lots of sparkle for a nice lower half balance. Strap on some heels to really amp up your exposed legs and you are set!
  3. Lolas are one of only 2 body types I would ever recommend ultra wide leg pants for. Their naturally fuller upper body is able to support and control the volume they add to your bottom half. Make sure to keep your waist well defined and you will be sporting a curvy, sexy silhouette in no time!
  4. While Lolas look great in skinnies, pairing a blouse with a boot cut jean is a great way to give balance to the lower body in a subtle way. The slight flare in the leg draws the eyes down and creates volume. Ground this look with bold heels!

Jozie SP13-1
The most important thing to remember with your Jozie body is to create balance between your naturally fuller lower half and the leaner upper portions and really accentuate your little waist. Find a collarless blouse in a lighter shade that have wide cuffs, fuller sleeves, ruffles, zippers, embellishment, rushing or vertical seaming detail like the one above. This all helps to draw the eye upward and make you look balanced.
  1. Jozies can wear stripes on the bottom! Look for thinner vertical stripes or a mix of diagonal & vertical to will really accentuate the lower curves but not broaden them. The pleats in the shoulders of the blouse above give Jozie's the upper body fullness to balance a pencil skirt! Make sure to keep your hemline in check around your knees if you are shorter. More skin means you look taller.
  2. Jozies look best in straighter legged jeans but don't feel you are limited to that style. Let your jean hem go longer than normal and pair it with a high heel to further lean out hips and thighs. 
  3. Jozies look super cute in Bermuda styled shorts that cut straight down from the hip and hit a few inches above the knees. Pair them with a great wedge & watch how fabulous your legs look!
  4. A line skirts are a Jozie's best friend. They accentuate your small waist and have that flare that skims over your extra bits to create a beautiful, class look.

Tawnie SP13-1
The most important thing to remember with your Tawnie body is to create curves without overpowering your smaller frame. Find a collarless blouse that is asymmetrical like the one above.This is your “best cut”! It creates a clean line of sight elongating your petite frame and accentuating your best assets!

  1. Tawnies look great in skinny pencil skirts. They hug your body & give you instant curves! Paired with a nude high heel, you will look like you have gorgeous long legs!
  2. Tawnies have a body make for skinnies. Paired with more voluminous top, you look great in a pair of skinnes that are bold & playful. Make sure you keep prints to the first rule, if its bigger than your fist, its too big for your body!
  3. Take your blouse casual with some class denim. Let your hemline skim just above the ground & pair up with some great, pointed heels for a long, casual chic look!
  4. For a totally funky fun look, try adding a sequined mini! Let your hemline hit at the broadest part of your thigh for balance on this heavier look.

Mozza SP13-1
The most important thing to remember with your Tawnie body is to keep the balance between your upper & lower curves while showing off your small waist! Find a collarless blouse that is well fitted in the shoulders and structured all the way down. Lighter fabrics will gently glide over your curves and accentuate them without adding bulk like the one above. The overlap of the sheer black button panel helps the create a long front line that will draw attention to your waist!

  1. Mozzas look great structured button down blouses with a bold bottom. If your blouse isn't structured at the waist add a belt at your natural waist to cinch in and leave a couple of buttons at the top & bottom open. This creates a double v effect and will subtly give your curves a compliment. Pair up with some tall heels to elongate your bottom half. 
  2. Mozzas can wear a printed bottom. Make sure the print isn't too busy and has more vertical or horizontal patterns so it compliments your curves rather than broadening them. Keep your hemline right above the knee so your legs aren't overtaken and are elongated. 
  3. For a great casual look, pair up your blouse with a pair of straight legged jeans. Look for a pair with a bit of stretch that will hug your curves without constricting you. Let your hem almost grave the ground and team up with heels for a longer look. 
  4. Mozzas look amazing in figure hugging pencil skirts. Make sure your skirts hit close to your natural waist to avoid  creating a false, wide waist line at the hip line  If your skirt doesn't start that high, pair it with a belt to make sure you keep the right definition in the appropriate spots!
