I have small shoulders and upper half but a much curvier bottom - what should I wear?

A great wardrobe should make you feel confident, empowered and show off your style. When shopping for a new outfit, it’s important to not only consider what suits your body, but will also make you feel powerful and confident in your skin.

BOTTOMS

DRESSES

Dresses with a wider shape at the bottom tend to be more effective in balancing out the hips. Plus size A line dress  that tapers at the waist is an amazing way to show off your curves while balancing out the upper body and is also a great fit.
