But I have to admit I guessed at some of my measurements, so I'll have to try it again with the precise information.<br /><br />I'm new to your blog (saw your link at PR!) and I think it's great!

I recently looked into what shape I was, and found a brilliant site that really helped. http://www.insideoutstyleblog.com/<br />She has really great definitions of each shape. Turns out I am really an hourglass with pear tendencies. So I have decently wide shoulders, with a smaller bust and wide hip/thigh area.<br />Also don't just go on what they descriptions say - trying things on at the shops is a great way to step out of your comfort zone and see what looks good before spending time sewing them :)Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16240058096616561830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5457359017328593864.post-11346894357175237562010-10-07T11:37:56.629-07:002010-10-07T11:37:56.629-07:00Thanks for the link!
