How to dress for your body shape and find jeans for strawberries
Just a little hint before we get started in our tips for finding the best fitting jeans, in some cases (especially whenever it comes to denim shopping), the strawberry body type overlaps with the apple shape. Often times, strawberry shapes carry their extra weight in their mid-section, but closer to the mid-drift area. So if you are having trouble following our guidelines, try hopping over to our post about finding the right denim for the apple shaped body.
- Pieces that add extra volume around your waist and hips will help downplay your broad shoulders.
- Focus on mid-rises if your goal is to downplay your tummy.
- Since we are getting into the warm summer months, try rolling up your denim to make a cuff at the bottom, which draws the eyes downwards, away from your broad shoulders. In the colder months, choose a wider leg with a cuff at the bottom. Plus, the cuff helps you show off your new favorite pair of shoes!
- Look For: denim that has extra pocket embellishments or wide legs.
- Avoid: wearing leggings as pants or denim without any pockets.
