Hoping someone knows what I'm talking about. LOL I am looking kind of for the "What Not To Wear" type of stuff. I'm not even sure what my body type is, but am hoping to find a site that will tell me that and how to dress best to minimize my assets (LOL) and flaws. I know the pants that make me look best are flat front and back type, but my biggest issue right now is finding skirts that don't make my bottom half (i.e bum, tummy and hip area) appear even larger than they are. Flat/straight skirts do not seem to do that as much as the flat jeans do and the flared skirts DEFINITELY don't do anything good for me.

My Virtual Model makes a (rather attractive) model of your body shape - and then you can "try" things on online. It helped me a lot to know what things would be more flattering.

That's a really neat site!

man, i'm wasting too much time playing with this site! lol although i have to say, i do wish i could use it on more sites b/c there isn't much i like at the ones offered.

and for the obsessive like me, if you're not happy with your weight, don't go there. it's a bit shocking and i'm sitting here messing with the stats to see what weight i'd be happy to get down to

That is fun.... but why must they tuck every shirt in?????

LOL Really! I don't wear shirts that need to be tucked in. They even tuck in a lot of the sweaters which is irritating!
