This will measure the shape and visual length of your Bone Structure<\/strong>\u2014 shoulders, arms, legs, hands, and feet.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n1. How long is your vertical line?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n Vertical line means how tall you look in comparison to your actual height. Even if you’re tall, it’s possible to have a shorter vertical line and vice versa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nA<\/strong>. Long, I look taller than I actually am.<\/li>\n\n\n\nB<\/strong>. Moderately long. I look like I\u2019m slightly taller than I actually am, but not by very much.<\/li>\n\n\n\nC<\/strong>. Moderate. I look to be my actual height.<\/li>\n\n\n\nD.<\/strong> Smallish. I look slightly shorter than my actual height.<\/li>\n\n\n\nE.<\/strong> Petite. I look shorter than I actually am.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nIf we compare Emma Watson and Ashley Greene in similar outfits, which of them looks taller?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ashley Green, for sure, looks taller than Emma. But would you have guessed that they’re actually both 5’5″? It’s not just the camera angle either. Google their photos wearing similar clothing and see the difference. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Despite having the same height, Ashley Greene has a longer vertical line than Emma’s. The same goes for Angelina Jolie and Katie Perry who are both 5’7″. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Generally, if you have a small head compared to your shoulders<\/strong>, you will look taller. If you have a large head compared to your shoulders, you will look shorter. <\/p>\n\n\n\nAnother way of putting it is that broad-shouldered women tend to look taller than the narrow-shouldered ones. If you’re unsure about yours, ask someone (who doesn’t know your height) to guess your height while you’re standing or show your photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. What’s the shape of your shoulders?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
A. Sharp and narrow<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThese shoulders look masculine. They’re narrow, angular, and sharp. They have no softness nor bluntness. Just an abrupt transition from shoulders to arms. Like Keira Knightley’s shoulders.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
B. Blunt, broad <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThese shoulders are still Yang dominant (masculine) but they do have some Yin softness (feminine) too. As a result of this fusion, they’re angular but also a little softer at the edges. This results in broadness and a shoulder-to-arm transition that isn’t as abrupt as A.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
C. Moderate, even.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThese shoulders have 50% Yang and 50 Yin mixed evenly in a blender. As a result, you cannot tell whether they’re Yin or Yang dominant because they’re neither. They’re neutral. If your shoulders don’t fall under A, B, D, or E, then they’re probably a C.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
D. Sloped, tapered<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThese shoulders are dainty and delicate like E but possess a sharpness at the edges instead of roundness like E.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
E. Sloped, rounded.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThese shoulders are dainty, delicate, and soft at the edges. Think of Beyonce’s shoulders.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
3. How long do your arms and legs look in comparison to your body?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\nA<\/strong>. Elongated, narrow<\/li>\n\n\n\nB<\/strong>. Elongated, broad<\/li>\n\n\n\nC.<\/strong> Moderate, even in proportion to my height and torso<\/li>\n\n\n\nD<\/strong>. Small, slightly short<\/li>\n\n\n\nE<\/strong>. Small, very short in proportion to my height and torso<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nNote<\/strong>: Even if you’re short, you can still have long arms and legs. And even if you’re tall, you can still have short arms and legs. The question asks how long arms and legs look in proportion <\/em>to your own body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n4. What are the size and shape of your hands and feet in comparison to the rest of your body?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n

5. What\u2019s the overall shape of your body?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
A. Long, lean, dry.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n“Dry” means no defined curves. Breasts are small to average, waist straight, and hips narrow.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n

\n
\n
C. Moderate, even<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe keyword is symmetry. If you look at this body type as a whole, no part would stick out and look extreme(no hourglass waist, broad shoulders, straight hips,). Everything is just moderately shaped.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nWaist is moderately defined (not as curvy as D and E but not straight as A), with bust and shoulders appearing equal in visual width (visual width means no tape measure involved).<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
D. Shapely, a delicate hourglass<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThis means you have an extremely defined hourglass figure but with some sharpness on your shoulders.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
E. Very soft, lushly curved, a ripe hourglass.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThis means you’re also hourglass-shaped with rounded shoulders, arms, and thighs. Even if you’re slim, the roundness and daintiness of your limbs is still noticeable. Think of Beyonce.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
6. What\u2019s the shape of your bust line, or upper torso?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n Your bustline is the line encircling<\/strong> the fullest part of your bust, including your breasts and back fats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\nA<\/strong>. Flat, taut (I never seem to add flesh here, even when overweight).<\/li>\n\n\n\nB<\/strong>.

Shapely, curved, more prominent than my waistline (I tend to add flesh here when overweight).<\/li>\n\n\n\nE<\/strong>. Very prominent (whether I\u2019m thin or heavy, I\u2019m always busty).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n7. What\u2019s the shape of your waistline?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
