The secret, however, is to first identify your body type.

If you are the skinny type, finding fitting clothes can be quite a challenge. But fret not. We have outlined some fashion and style tips to rock your body like a star.

1. Have it tailored for you

2. Avoid baggy outfits

3. Try peplum

The peplum design never disappoints with skinny girls. It creates the illusion of a fuller figure and gives the body more definition. You can try out a peplum dress, peplum top or a blazer that flares around the waist line. Frills are also great details to accentuate your shape.
