Today I am playing with proportions. I have a naturally pronounced hourglass figure (big boobs and big hips and bum but with a narrower waist) but I find it really hard to dress, especially when I spend most of my time trying to minimise my bust! However today I decided to play with my bodies natural proportions: this dress is from French Connection (I got it from Bicester last week) and has a wide cinched in waist and heavy sleeves which emphasise my hourglass. I further emphasised my waist by adding my pony belt (I got this from Primark from £3 - I'm really impressed as it looks like much better quality than that!) Finally I added two necklaces in an attempt to elongate my upper torso.
Do you have a part of your body you love to show off? Or is there a part of you your always trying to minimise which prevents you from trying new things? I find other peoples relationships with their bodies fascinating!
Anyway, I think i've bigged up what is actually a really plain and simple looking outfit, so i'll finish it off with the sentence that would have done instead of all the fluff: this is what i'm wearing today!
Love, Tor xx

I don't think there's any part I try to minimize...I hate going out without bright lipstick! So I guess I try to maximize my lips.
love the belt.

I'm in love with your belt.
You look fab here!
As I'm an apple (and a trainee stylist) I know that i should minimise my chest but really that's the body shape that i get the most compliments on!Really surprised that your belt is from Primark, it looks so much more expensive.
Love your blog by the way :)
