i look awful in clothes.

I'm 21, less than 120lbs and 5'3.5'' and have relatively large breasts and hips. I should balance, my hips and bust are the same measurment but I dont, at all.

I went out earlier to see if I could buy some new jeans/trousers and my hips look so wide. I love to wear dresses but sometimes I dont want to look all dressed up and girly, I just want to look comfortable and not fat.  I know that at the weight I am, that I am not fat but i just dont feel right in anything I wear and anything I own.

I'm having real troubles staying positive and sometimes really just feel disgusted by myself and very lonely.

Anyone have any advice for comfy clothing for short girls with hips?

thanks in advance.

would a wide leg trouser work better for your shape? or balance your hips out with a kickflare?

have a go at this - it might make you feel better:

Gok Wan has some great advice.  Other ones you might find useful are 'What Not To Wear' and  'The Body Shape Bible' by Trinny Woodall and Susannah Constantine.  Once you truly understand your shape it makes shopping for flattering clothes 100% easier.

I am actually very similar to you josna! Shorter, with hips. More often than not, I feel weird wearing jeans (even though I wear them a lot) because of the way they look or fit. But I have actually found that Skinny Jeans are very slimming. I think that the flares at the bottom of jeans make shorter girls who have hips look stout (or at least just me haha). So, I'd say invest in some pairs of skinny jeans that are made of stretchy material (Abercrombie and Fitch are good). Also the slightly higher waisted ones are definitely more comfortable and look really good with like any shirt that's not too short.

Also, leggings and skirts seem to be pretty awesome too. AND shorts that are a little longer, like not short-shorts and not bermuda shorts, but the kind in the middle length look good and are comfortable.

Just want to remind you, don't be too hard on yourself about anything.

thanks guys.

weffy - i completely agree with you on the skinny jeans being more flattering its just that sometimes even the stretchiest skinnies can feel less than comfy..i'm going to take your advice and see if i can find some leggings. i used to wear them all the time with a longish shirt and that was super comfy.

..also! bought a maxi dress today and its the most comfortable thing ever and not too long.

feeling more positive now, hope it lasts for a while.
