Do you have one fashion-oriented wish that you'd like granted? If I had my way, I'd look awesome in red and not have cankles. Ooops, that's two! What about you? Share Away!

to be a pear shape

I hate my apple shape, I would rather have curvy hips and fat legs than big boobs and a big, round belly with funny skinny match stick legs like I have. Oh I wish I was pear shaped, pears also have visible collar bones and nice long necks, to see my collar bones you would have to starve me!!

If you could change one thing -

A longer neck so I don't look so squat and a higher head shape for the same reason. However it's just as well I can live without it; just think what it would take to change it!!

My mouth/weak chin

I have a terrible overbite and crooked teeth, along with a weak chin. I fantasize about wearing a cute pixie haircut, and feel I can't due to my weak/double chin. I've consulted with dentists and orthodontists, and it would take roughly $30,000 worth of braces and maxillofacial surgery (not to mention time and pain) to correct this. On the other hand, I have pretty, almost piercing blue-grey eyes that help draw attention away from the flaws.

what would i change about myself

I would change my huge stomach. I can't get anything to fit and flatter and i have not enough budget to buy good stuff
—fattyfairy

OH my hips!

I have very wide hips and find that many styles do not flatter my hips at all. Small waist and big hips makes it difficult to wear super trndy things. Thank God for spanx!!!

Be a Little Wild

I would be a little more wild, a little more sexy. Wearing a size 28, I tend to hide behind my clothes instead of using them to express myself.

Change one thing

be able to wear sleeveless- get rid of "bat wings" or gain mindset to not care about them & just be cooler in hot weather.

I wish I were more balanced instead of being a pear shape. There are things I'd like to wear that just don't work with a pear shape. Once when I had lost a bunch of weight, I was more balanced. However, I wouldn't go through the stress it took to get me thin again.

If You Could Change One Thing About Your

I would want a thinner neck/chin area. A well sculpted chin would be fabulous!
