Skinny VS Curvy

Here’s someone we haven’t seen before: 35 year-old actress and former model Natasha Henstridge.

Natasha is the owner of a curvy figure that Trinny and Susannah named “The Cello”. Basically, a cello is a slightly wider hourglass, a very proportionate curvy figure with a larger bone structure. Cello girls have broad shoulders, a relevant bust, curvy hips, waist definition (yet not your typical super tiny waist) and strong thighs, sometimes a slight tummy and they look great even at higher weighs, since their weight is evenly distributed and they’ve got a larger frame.

In case your figure is similar, here are a few fast tips on how to dress to make the most of your curvy body:

- V necklines that flatter your impressive cleavage and elongate the torso

- Pencil skirts and A-line skirts, but not so much balloon or puffy skirts

- Structured, tailored tops that accentuate your waist, but not so much baggy clothing, layering and pointless volumes

- Smart blazers, buttoned cardigans that hug the figure, office shirts, 50’s and 60’s dresses

- Pretty much anything that says “formal” and “classic”

How do you guys like Natasha’s figure?

No problem! Here’s Girls Aloud’s Kimberley Walsh relaxing by the pool and showing off a really nice, slim, yet shapely figure.

Brief FAQ: She’s 27, and 5′5”.

Here’s what she says about her figure:

I prefer clothes that go in at the waist as it shows I’ve actually got a shape. I don’t love my legs so I won’t make them the feature of my outfit.

I don’t feel comfortable wearing cleavage baring clothes, either. If you’ve got a silhouette, that can be sexier than having your actual boobs or legs out. I find it hard to get trousers to fit because I’ve got a bigger bum and smaller waist.

The Daily Mail says that Kimberly “has stolen” Cheryl’s beach look – see if they’re right on the second page!

Do you think that leggings flatter a skinny figure or do they actually look best on a not-so-thin, healthy frame? Are you a fan of Lindsay’s pin thin figure in this outfit or do you like the way Hilary looks in leggings & boots?

P.S.: Leaving the bottom half aside, notice how small-framed Lindsay seems compared to Hilary, who is a V-shape and has stronger shoulders.

Cameron Diaz is no stranger to plastic surgery.

She had her nose fixed (after breaking it four times!) following a 2006 surfing accident. “S*** just finds my face — it’s crazy!” she tells July’s Marie Claire (on newsstands June 9).

But the 36-year-old actress says more radical forms of surgery are likely out of the question.

“I’d love a bigger butt, more meat on my bones,” she tells the magazine. “I’d love to be more voluptuous. It’s just not my body type.”

OK Magazine has a new article “Ashley Tisdale… As You’ve Never Seen Her Before” and they have some interesting parts:

On Hollywood’s Obsession with being Thin: “I’ve been very skinny my whole life… I don’t really like this look. I like curves — I think that’s more beautiful… I look at Jessica Alba and think she’s got a great body. I think that’s what women are supposed to look like.”

On Her Eating Habits: “I love French fries and bread, and when I’m on tour I have McDonald’s… At home, I like to cook — I love omelets in the morning. Still, I have started working out, so I do try to limit carbs and add protein. I want to build a little muscle.”

My only objection is: “that’s what women are supposed to look like” – well, I say that women are supposed to come in various shapes and sizes, with different weights, heights, different body types and frames and we’re not all supposed to look like Jessica Alba.

So we’ve recently seen Kelly in a side-by-side comparison that featured her THEN and NOW and we all concluded that she’s gained some weight. Well, she has, but the outfit she wore on that occasion also takes part of the blame, as well as the “stage angle” and her positions during the performance. Check out the pictures by clicking HERE!

A longer top with sleeves definitely flatters her, much more than the last sleeveless, sparkly top she wore.

How do you all like Kelly here?

Actually, the more I look at these pants, the more I realize that These Are Not the Right Pants for Anyone.

Fast tip: Jennifer would look amazing in classic cuts, smart blazers, longer tops, flared jeans, shirts that accentuate the waist and elongate the torso, narrow V necklines or figure hugging (but not too much) dresses.

What do YOU say? Is this outfit flattering or unflattering on Jennifer’s figure?
