Pop a pair of printed peep-toes, pick up a smart sling bag and you are all set for the special date with your man!
Apple alert

Your clothing goal comprises of minimizing the top & mid body while accentuating the shoulders and the legs. Flared tops and low waist straight legged pants help to take the focus of the midsection and hide the stomach bulge, if any. For this V-day, you can effortlessly pull of a shift dress in a not so predictable hue of red, like burgundy or oxblood. Make sure to choose a midi or knee-length dress to show off those shapely legs. Accessorize the dress with a layered necklace, a statement ring and an envelope clutch so that your date can hardly keep his eyes off you.
Go bananas
This body shape is owned by all those who have hips the same size as the waist and all over a straight framework. The clothing goals of all such girls include highlighting the narrowest part of the waist which will make the hips and bust look more pronounced. Tops with ruffles make the top half look fuller and the waist shapelier and a fitted mini skirt will also accentuate the slim legs. You can also try a ruffled top with a full flared maxi skirt to add volume to your body shape. Go for a side cutout mini dress on this V-day in shades of pink like fuchsia, salmon, pastel pink etc. that will make you look. Finish the look with a pair of gladiators, a statement necklace and a quirky box clutch to make your V-date a total blockbuster.
Prim and pear
Well, a Pear-shaped body has the widest portion around the hips, which is very common specially in Indiam women.

The off-shoulders flatter your shoulders, drawing eyes to the top, while the flared lower part camouflages the heavy hips beautifully.
