Although shopping is high on our list of fun activities, it can prove a headache when you’re not happy with anything you see.
There’s nothing fun about trying on dress after dress, only to find a problem with each. Equally as annoying is ordering something online, and trying it on to find the fit is completely wrong.
With this in mind, we have put together an edit of five tops from Littlewoods Ireland that cater for different body types.
Apple
If you’re an apple shape, you may be conscious of the stomach area and a top such as this one provides both comfort and style. This Love Label top is a gorgeous shade and the ideal separate to take you from the office to an after work gathering. At €27, this is one piece that will definitely earn its keep in your wardrobe.
Curvy
Trying to find a top that you’re comfortable in, but that flatters your curves isn’t the easiest task. However, this black patterned blouse by Kimberley Walsh is a simple stylish piece that ticks all the boxes. The pelican print adds a fun touch and the loose sleeves help to balance out the body. Paired with a skirt or over your favourite jeans, this is a winner at €37.
Pear
Pear shapes tend to put on weight on their bottom halves, rather than the top. A peplum shape is a good choice as it draws attention to the small waist of a pear while the bottom of the top flares out, drawing the eye down the body instead of directly at the bum and legs. Look no further than this pretty printed Love Label peplum style top, €32.
Top Heavy
The opposite of the pear, top heavy shapes are often conscious of their upper bodies. Finding a piece that flatters the figure while keeping up with current trends isn’t as easy as it sounds. However, this one-shouldered Definitions delight brings a little sunshine to your summer attire for €32, even if the skies are as gloomy as ever.
Petite
Print is everywhere this season, which is good news for those with a petite figure. Small and slight, this type of body shape can generally get away with wearing most patterns. This geometric print South Geo blouse, €32 is elegantly chic, tuck it into tailored trousers for day and wear with a skort, shorts or skirt for night wear.
