Skinny VS Curvy

Actress Ashley Greene, who is the proud owner of an athletic V-shaped figure brings by some body type-related thoughts today:

“I’ve certainly learned that every woman has a different body type, so you have to learn to love yourself and work with what you have,” she says. “If you were born with an athletic figure, you’re never going to have Scarlett Johansson’s body. Once you get past that, you become a lot happier in your clothes decisions and with yourself.”

… says Ashley.

‘Find the one part of your body that you love and accentuate it. For example, because I have a small waist, a big butt and thin legs, belts work for me. You have to know what looks best on your body. Growing up I saw only skinny models and didn’t relate. Salma Hayek and Jennifer Lopez prove you can be curvy and proud!’

‘On days when I need extra motivation, I just think: ‘Bikini, bikini, bikini! Of course, I’m a perfectionist, so there’s always room for improvement. After working out, I see a difference in my butt and thighs and my clothes fit a little differently, too.’

… says Kim in Self Magazine.

Even though some wouldn’t really call Kelly’s figure a challenging one (to dress), the glamour model / actress explains that:

Finding clothes that suit my curvy shape has been a struggle in the past. When I was younger, I was a trend follower without really thinking if it suited my body shape.

Now, rather than following what other people are doing, I stick to accentuating my waist, as it balances out my hips and boobs.

When I started getting into modelling as a teenager, I wasn’t your typical gazelle with petite perky breasts or an androgynous waif.

I was 5ft 6in with 36in hips, a 25in waist and large boobs, so I really struggled to begin with — I was the wrong girl, wrong time.

But then I looked for work in areas of the media that would accept me, such as pop videos.
