I know this might not FEEL like a compliment but it truly is, from my heart, thank you for being a REAL apple shaped body. I have watched too many videos where the woman claims such and its not even close! When I see you, I see me. Thanks for the tips.
Thank you Marleen would love more of these little videos I am the same shape as you but my legs are very skinny no thighs or bum but a big belly and chest at 5 ft 1 its impossible to buy jeans or jeggings that fit me everything definately seems to be pear shaped in Ireland lol!!! I love your hints and tips and I finally got my first order from Shein too!! Thanks to your inspiration! You always look so confidant and chic in your style xx
Aw Mary keep me posted on your shein, hope you love what you ordered. I’m planning more videos like these as it’s styling over hauls that I’m passionate about but I’ll mix it up so I’m glad you enjoyed this one xx
So many great tips ‼️ l L💛VED the full yellow suit and caught myself🤣 I abruptly remembered you said at the start these were all older pieces and not available. I especially liked and also style using the denim & long white shirts!!! Both ooked great on you❣️
Really great video. I totally enjoyed it. I avoid trousers but i think i should try some and pretty longer shirts. i’m definitely an apple shape with skinny legs! ❤
Thanks for the videos😊 I have never used a belt or elastic waist, course as I think i look pregnant, but i can see, it’s about where to place the elastic om the dress. Think I will try it. I think i look very square and shapeless when i wear the blouses over the skirt and trousers, but i have never tucked the blouse inside the trousers. Have learned that an Apple shape should never do that😞Will You please show and talk more about the correct position of the waist so as not to look pregnant. Have a femling that it is about a few cm. It looks so Good om You.
Ohhh I will surely, you have given me an idea for a video, thank you. It will be a while before I can make it happen so bear with me but in the meantime I hope my tips and tricks in the videos can help xx
You are not a fruit! Your body is uniquely and wonderfully you. You don’t have to fit into a category. We don’t have to define our plus sized bodies in such a demeaning way. You never here slim people categorizing their bodies with produce. Every body is a different shape. There aren’t enough fruits on the planet to match all of the many shapes of bodies there are. You’re not an apple! You’re a gorgeous woman.
I do agree with you most of the way. Personally I don’t think it’s demeaning to be “a fruit”, on the contrary I think it helps as we have something to compare too (in shape) and often it’s easier to visualise an object than our shapes, as as you say, we are all different. I think slimmer people use the terms just as much, I just don’t think we see it simply because a slim Apple don’t look like an Apple they simply have (measurement wise) the same proportions as an Apple. It’s clear when you look at me that I am an Apple as I have the big round belly so it’s easier to see the connection. But yes, I am a woman, yes my body is amazing no matter it’s shape or size, but I see myself as an Apple shape and I personally believe many others can see the beauty in our fruits. Thank you for your input, it will be interesting to see if others will comment and where they stand on this xx
The UA-cam algorithm has ‘found you’ When I first clicked on this video you sounded so 🇺🇸🇺🇸 but you are not ha ha Anyway great video for most women who live in the real world not the fake one where women are a size 8 or 10 or a 6👎👎 I’m from the West Midlands and in my 20’s I was a size 12-14 and was happy Then in my 30’s to 50’s I then put weight on - went to 16-18 At the age of 51 I lost 2 stone through stress, my late mother having Dementia, cancer and heart failure and having to finally send her to nursing home I was diagnosed in May 2023 with Over Active Thyroid This is harder to treat and there are many symptoms including weight loss I’m trying to put weight on The apple shape My legs are so thin, but I still have a stomach and have lost bust size When you have medical issue it’s so hard to gain weight I’m struggling with clothes 👍 👍 ❤️❤️🏴🏴🏴🏴🌼🌼
@@ImjustmeMarleen your are in 🇮🇪 Denim 👖 has always been an issue for women for many a year and I’ve never found jeans that fit ‘well’ I’ve never been a fan of ‘skinny’ jeans. When I see ‘young girls’ wearing them they look 🤮 I don’t know if you have done a video about this subject? I live about 15mins away from a boutique that I shop at 2-3 times a year and they sell ‘SALSA’ jeans The brand is amazing and they fit so well for any shape even their skinny jeans 🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴❤️❤️❤️🌼🌼
Sorry, but some of these outfits are the worst for an apple body. I think everyone should wear want they want, and you are lovely and look cute whatever you wear, but the first two are not good examples of outfits that flatter apple bodies. In pants, tapered leg trousers are the worst for apple bodies, as they only accentuate the apple shape and create the illusion of a wider waist. Wide legs and especially boot cut pants are much better. And V-necks are much better than round necks for apple bodies. That yellow outfit is the opposite of a good apple body choice, as the jacket is a boxy shape and makes the waist look wider. And in that light yellow color it only looks bigger. The wrap dress is great, and flattering for apple bodies
I agree with you. The first outfit also had dark heavy shoes which added to a a bad look and an apple shape should never wear a jacket that stops at the widest part of your stomach.
Totally agree with you Marleen, why would we class a cat as unattractive for having the shape it does, same with humans. There is no right and wrong with body shapes, we have what we have, The trick is to find clothes that work for your shape. I love all the looks on you, but love, love, love the yellow on you, the light colours so suit you. It took me so long to move to the light and bright colours, now that I am here, I would never move back. (It does help I live in a country with 300 days of sunshine a year)- Fab video as always, gorgeous lady! xxx Here are several red hearts for you ❤❤❤❤❤❤
@outofthisworld4437 nope just because we are apples does not mean we have to hide in black! It’s ok if black is what works for you but I shall wear what I want and love and I shall encourage others to do the same!
I know this might not FEEL like a compliment but it truly is, from my heart, thank you for being a REAL apple shaped body. I have watched too many videos where the woman claims such and its not even close! When I see you, I see me. Thanks for the tips.
It’s my pleasure. I started this because I felt the same. Very little representation of our body shape as well as my age.. so here I am lol
this is my first time leaving a comment, I do watch you all the time, love seeing the great looking clothes and tips
Hi Judith. Thank you for being here and for leaving me a comment. Hope you will again. I’m so glad you enjoy my videos ❤️
Love this,most videos on styling apple shape are done by stick thin people.thank you 😊😍
Oh yes! And you are so right.. nothing bad to our slim sisters but it’s rarely help us with a few more curves. Which is why I make videos 😄
Great info. I'm trying to get more into dresses and love the wrap dress. Thanks for the tips😘🦘❤
My pleasure Kate and keep me posted on your journey. It’s skirts for me. I love and wear dresses but skirts I find hard xx
Try empire dresses that have a twist at the top middle and an A-line bottom.
Wouldn’t work for me the way my belly sits
You are the Apple of my eye!!

This is harder to treat and there are many symptoms including weight loss
I’m trying to put weight on
The apple shape
My legs are so thin, but I still have a stomach and have lost bust size
When you have medical issue it’s so hard to gain weight
I’m struggling with clothes
👍 👍 ❤️❤️🏴🏴🏴🏴🌼🌼
Ah I’m sorry you have health struggles but I hope I can help a little bit when it comes to the clothes xx
