I have a boot problem: I've discovered that my calves are too slim to fill out the top of some boots. Yes, there are worse things in life, but when endlessly searching for a stylish pair, it can be disheartening, not to mention unflattering.
Many girls have the opposite problem, where their calves are too large for boots.

Like Liv Tyler's sister and plus-sized model, Mia Tyler (pictured), most girls aren't rail-thin. In fact, many have beautiful, womanly curves! True, models are super-skinny (except for this plus-sized model who walked the Jean Paul Gaultier catwalk for Paris Fashion Week) but they have people commanding them to stop eating, to eat less, to not eat.

I have a blonde bombshell of a friend who is a self-proclaimed broad-shouldered gal. We recently went shopping together because she needed tops and dresses and I'm here to help!

Last week I showed you some of my current favorite suit trends: metallic bikinis, cut-out one pieces, exotic suits, pin up styles and surfing wear. Life & Style featured some celebs in their suits according to their body types - so helpful!

In this week's Life & Style they offer a really helpful breakdown on how to wear this season's hottest item: the dress. They show several examples of dress styles to lift busts, hide hips, accentuate curves and tame tummies. With all the voluminous styles of late, I realize those with un-model-like bods are struggling to pull off these looks.

Earlier this week I announced that we decided to make it a priority to address a very important fashion category: dressing for your body type. It would be silly for a fashion magazine, or blog, to think that all women were created equal, body-wise, so we're here to help and answer your questions.
DearSugar recently gave some sound advice to a reader who was a self-proclaimed "bottom heavy" woman.

Busty girls can understand this fashion dilemma: you're wearing a button down blouse for a job interview or a business meeting and realize (when it's a little too late) that anyone standing within a foot of you can see your sexy lace bra through the crack between the buttons and your chest. The well endowed can now cover up those horrible gaps with No See 'ems from Atlanta-based company, Bug Catcherz.
Here's how to use the clear strip of heavy tape that's sticky on both sides.
