  • Clothes that skim past over your midsection but nip right below your bust these will lift your chest and make your waist look trimmer
  • Add more volume and structure to your hips – A line skirts are great
  • Shapewear or Spanx are always great for waist cinching
  • A good bra lifts up your bust and can help create some waist definition (every body shape needs this!)
  • U, scoop or V-neck lines are  are super gorgeous on your body and  will make your torso look slimmer
  • Apples can wear metallic pants and anything with detail or embellishments around the hemline since you have some smoking legs
  • Tops with sleeve details such as slits and gathers to accentuate your upper body and gorgeous arms
