How to dress your body shape

Last night the momstown Oakville mama's got together for a fantastic mom's night out.  We had a style party and it was awesome!  Wendy Woods from The Refinery held a session for us on how to dress your body shape, helped us identify what shape we had and answered any questions we had about style overall.  We each had a bit of one on one time as well to get specific assistance with any issues we have.

Since this was a mom's night out event, we treated ourselves to a little wine and cheese to get the party going.  The cheese from Whole Foods Market was incredible delicious, we spent a really long time chatting about how good it was!  Hands down some of the best I have had.  But I digress!


To start things off, Wendy gave us a brief overview of her company and about herself.  She recently had a baby and now knows first hand the challenges that women can have dressing their body after pregnancy. Next she moved into talking about the six body shapes which are - hourglass, rectangle, standard, triangle, inverted triangle and circle.  Do you know what your body shape is?  You can learn more about each shape on Wendy's website.  Click here to learn more about the circle body shape (you can scroll down her page to find links to the other shapes).

After describing the body shapes and assessing each of us, she provided us with take home cards that suggested types of clothing that work best for your body shape and how to make it work for you.  We then moved on to the question and answer period and we discussed everything from shape wear to skinny jeans to suggested stores to shop to the proper length to hem your pants.  So much great information was shared! 

Here is Wendy (on the right) talking body shape with one of our members

Wendy offers some really valuable services and so many of our members commented that a gift certificate to work with Wendy was going on their Christmas list!  I agree - what an awesome gift that can change the way you look and feel about yourself.  I would love to get this as a gift (hint, hint to my husband who reads my blog posts)!  We loved meeting Wendy and had a really fun night out.

Mama's Night Out

momstown Oakville loves keeping babies, toddlers and kids busy, engaged and interested.  But we also know that giving moms a night out without any little ones in tow is also really important.  It's hard to have a decent conversation with the chaos of a playdate and circle time or while the kids get busy in the kitchen at our Junior Chef program.  Over the past few months we've had lots of fun evening activities that give moms a chance to really connect with other moms and try some new things too.

Which one of these things would you like the most as a night away from your little ones?  (Don't worry, you can say all of them!)

Backyard Yoga


Roller Skating



Beach Volleyball


Book Swap


Poker Night


Favourite Things Exchange





Wine & Cheese Night Out
Movie Night - Magic Mike
Chakra Balancing

We also have our monthly book club and are heading out to a Pub Night tonight!  Interested in connecting with other moms in the Oakville community?  Join us by signing up for your FREE 4 week trial or purchase your membership today!  For August and September, you'll receive an added bonus when you buy a one year momstown membership - a year subscription to Today's Parent magazine!
