As a pear shape, your goal is to put the spotlight on top…meaning you want to downplay your hips by showing off features starting from head to waist. Take Kristin Davis and Jennifer Love Hewitt, both are pear shapes wearing two different style of jeans…you can decide which jean looks better, but we’ll give you our take on it.

On the left: Kristin plays up her pear shape by picking a great boot cut jean that cinches on her well defined waist.

On the right: Jennifer picks a simple tank top and jean look but misses the boat on shape completely. The loose fit and leg style gives her extra proportions she shouldn’t want or need. Pear Shapes take a hint! This type of jean is not meant for your body.

Also What to Avoid

-thigh sanding and whiskering as these tend to accentuate your larger areas. For those with a fuller seat, stick to standard back pockets. Otherwise choose any style features you like!

-Anything that has too much embroidery, or flaps on seat are all big nos for pear shapes.

-wearing capris during warm months

-anything with too low of a rise will also do you no good. You need a jean with full support in the hips and that sits near your natural waist.
