To each their own: how to choose the right accessories for your body type

If, upon closer inspection, the bag in your picture doesn’t look organic, it’s probably not the bag itself, but the fact that it doesn’t fit your body type. It does not color your proportions, it does not strive to make them visually ideal. How to choose accessories with which you will always look “high five”? What forms and models should I pay attention to?

If nature has gifted you with an elegant top and a heavy bottom, it pays to emphasize fragile shoulders and a seductive cleavage. Bright and massive jewelry will suit you, the image will only benefit if you add spectacular earrings or a necklace to it.

The triangular shape is best complemented by small geometric bags with a short strap (Prada has many such models) or medium-sized stiff clutches. Don’t overlook fashionable handbags with short handles that can be worn on the shoulder and baguette models.

Hide the squishy messenger bags and bums, they just make the bottom heavier!

As for shoes, your faithful companions on the way to the perfect silhouette will be classic beige pumps, wedge sandals and models with wide, stable heels.

This body type should not draw attention to the upper part. Move all eyes to your feet if you are lucky enough to see them. Heavy shiny bracelets, large watches and long earrings (they visually stretch the neckline) should certainly find a place in your wardrobe. Women’s belts in the form of a peplum will not be superfluous.

Good choices are trapezoidal bags (both classic Birkin and all kinds of Fendi models), small accessories on a chain that ends on the hips, and fashionable bags with a bracelet. If you have long slender legs, you can afford any shoes, including low-heeled or flat-heeled models, as well as “men’s” shoes.

The main task is to make the figure more feminine by visually adding curves. Of all jewelry, long chain necklaces with a pendant or in multiple rows will look best on you. Belts at the waist are an important element, they can be both bright and classically strict. It all depends on the case.

Give preference to soft bags with a feminine shape and rounded models. These are fashionable “bags” and accessories in the shape of the “moon”. There are many of these in the Chloé collections. If you are tall, you can experiment with different shoes. You won’t lose if you choose pumps and elegant low ankle boots.

We try not to spoil the ideal proportions created by nature.

Women’s hoop earrings and any other elegant jewelry will help with this. To emphasize the femininity of forms, bags on a long chain that can be worn over the shoulder can do it. Such models are classics of many brands, Chanel has most of them. A waist belt will not be useless. Elegant pumps, ankle boots and knee boots with a narrow shaft will look very good in combination with such a figure. High heels are yours too. Good luck!
