'My Body, My Style' Video: Flat Chested and Petite? Here's an Office Outfit
Rebecca is accustomed to wearing boxy clothing that hides her petite shape. In this episode of "My Body, My Style" fashion guru Sam Saboura dresses her in an outfit that will make her reentry into the work force seamless.
If you have a body shape similar to Rebecca's, Saborua recommends trying on a high-waisted skirt and/or pant to create curves at the hips. Also, a strategically-placed belt or corset top can help to enhance that desired S-shape on the body.
The end result? Rebecca's sleeveless ruffle top and pencil skirt is a knockout combination. She wants to go back to work right away!
Whether you're pear shaped, have a long torso, or are full-figured, you won't want to miss the rest of our tips for finding the best clothes for your shape, in the "My Body, My Style" series.

The outfit is darling and the made-over Rebecca looks terrific - but those shoes! If those are "work" shoes, I'm L.L Bean. How does the stylist justify pawning off those posture-damaging, foot-mangling four-inch stiletto heels on a young woman he's supposedly dressing for WORK? What work is that, exactly? Please. When the young woman walks onto the stage after her makeover, she lumbers out in such apparent discomfort it's as painful to watch her as it must have been for her to wear those monstrosities. Sam Seboura calls them "feminine and flirtatious;" that must be stylist code for "crippling and uncomfortable." He takes a creepily prurient delight in sending an otherwise adorably attired young woman off to work looking like, in his words, " a hot little sexy professional number." Ick. The shoes completely turned me off to the loveliness of what extended from them - and they don't even fit her feet! They're clearly a half size too big. Any man who would suggest that a woman wear shoes like that - to WORK, no less - ought to be forced to wear them himself for eight hours at a stretch.
