How to Determine your Body Type | Style Reboot #7

In the VIDEO (above) I tackle body types!
Get your measuring tape ready…and let’s find out what body SHAPE you are.
I also show you a simple way to determine if you are long waisted or short waisted.

“Once you know your body type, you can find clothing that fits and flatters YOUR body.”

One of the keys to great style is arming yourself with the right information.
Just like everything in life, it takes a little hard work and time,
But once you get the basics down… you will become more confident and most definitely more stylish!
