Upper body

A good bra is essential for this body type. Make sure you get a good supportive bra that will thrust your bustforwards. You will want to wear mostly V-shaped tops or tops with a deep neckline. High necklines will just make your bust area too bulky
Look for dresses that fit your boobs and elongate your waist. They should fit very snugly around that area.
If you have some weight around the addomen then make sure your buy your dress in supportive fabric.
T-shirts look nicest when they fit your waist, have a V-neck and have some accents on the shoulders.
Get a coat that highlights your waist and featuress a V-neck.
Wear single-breasted jackets that are tailored. They will often look best when left open to create a nice vertical line, which elongates
Choose shirts that accentuate your boobs and that don’t have buttons all the way to the top.
Tops that flare just below the boob area and go to below your crutch can be very flattering on trousers.
Little fitted jackets that tuck in your boobs will look great on you.
Use light scarves in winter to cover your open V-neck.
Wear darker colors on top to make your boobs appear smaller.

Lower body

Pencil skirts that fit well are ideal for the hourglass as they accentuate your wonderful curves.
Other skirts can work too but will usually look better when they end around the knee.
Opt for flat front boot cut trousers, preferably with stretch for a snug fit.
Choose shoes that accentuate your curves, like shoes with rounded toes, peep toes or bows.

What not to wear

Avoid too many thrills on your clothes as they will add extra bulk to places where you don’t need it.
Avoid excess fabric for the same reason.
Often it’s best to avoid obvious waistbands or belts. Let your clothes accentuate your small waist.
Flat lace-up shoes.
Be careful with casual clothes. They make you look boxy.

TBT: Can't believe it was 15 years ago at La Fabrique Club, Shanghai.

I was clearing up my hard drive today and I found this photo. I can't believe it was 15 years ago at La Fabrique Club, Shanghai. I wonder if the place is still open nowadays. First time I met this girl Amanda. She told me that She was a Taiwanese Canadians.She definitely could drink a lot. She was really nice to me and we hanged out from time to time.

Unfortunately after I went back to Sweden, I did't ask for her contact so we lost touch. Then later on I found out from one of my friend in Shanghai that she has been lying about her identity the whole time not only to me but also to many people. Anyway whatever and whoever she was/is, good or bad person. I had a good time with her and I just wanna keep only a good memory about her. Hope she is doing well wherever she is now.

HOW TO DRESS AN APPLE-SHAPED BODY

APPLE: Some people mistake a pear-shaped body for an apple-shaped body. An apple-shaped body is heavy in the middle and above the waist, while a pear-shaped body is heavier below the waist and in the upper thighs. Here are some other characteristics of the apple-shaped body.

A wide torso
Broad shoulders
An average-to-fuller bust
An undefined waist
Thinner arms and legs
A flat bottom
Hips that are narrower than your bust
You don't have to have a very large belly to be apple shaped -- it just means that your center of gravity, or your extra weight, resides in your belly area.

Tops

First of all, since a lot of attention is going to be drawn to the top part of your body, get yourself a good fitting bra.
Tops that highlight your body at the slimmest point which is often just underneath your bust. They should have enough space for your belly but not be too wide.
Buy t-shirts that are ruched in the middle. This will confuse the eye and you can’t tell that there’s a big tummy underneath.
Get Tops with a V-neck to break up the size of your chest and create a vertical line.
Look for tops with a thicker texture that don’t cling so much. Woven tops can be great.
The best height for tops is just belong your hipbone (when worn with pants)
Patterns tend to look very good on a apple shape body as they flatter and camouflage.
Tops should cover the whole belly area and end just below the hip bone.
Shirts look nicest when they are tight just underneath the boobs and then go out. Also try to get the v shape with your shirts.
Choose tailored jackets that have a nice v shape at the top.
Tops that draw attention to your arms with e.g. flares, a flit or embroidery will draw attention from your belly
Having a tie at your thinnest part is great as it highlights the waist and hides the belly. You don’t have to use your natural waist but can go higher.
Structured jackets help to create a nice silhouette. Wear them over tops and make sure that they define your waistline.
Make sure that the jacket fits the shoulder perfectly, so choose the size for your shoulders, not your belly. If you can’t close the jacket, you can always use a scarf to fill the gap if you like.
Dresses should have their waistline just below the bust.
It’s always good to have some detailing on the tummy area for camouflage.

Top for Apple-shaped Figure

For a long and lean silhouette

Layer with a long cardigan or a long sleeveless vest
Make sure the top underneath is not too short
Try to have v-neck lines with your long long jumper or tops underneath the layering piece
Longer tops and jackets that skim the body can be worn with leggings or skinny jeans

Bottoms

Get trousers that have zippers at the side to avoid adding extra bumps on the front.
Trousers should be flared or straight and not cling to tummy or thighs unless you are opting to create the long and lean silhouette using vertical lines (see above). Avoid pleats.
Also choose jeans that are tailored and either straight or flared. Trouser jeans are ideal.
Pants with a high rise will create a nice silhouette.
It’s best to get trousers with some stretch for extra comfort and a good fit.
Choose skirts that have their zippers at the side.
Structured pencil skirts work well, but keep them at knee length. Make sure to add the focus to the top with the tips above.
Make sure that any pleats of skirts start below the belly to avoid adding extra volume.
