From "curvalicious" to "pint sized," we've got springy looks for you.

When a new season hits, so does the shopping craze. Who doesn't want to spruce up their wardrobe for spring? This season, get the fit for your shape and give spectators a bad case of spring fever. Here's season-change fashion faves.

Plus-Size
Think curvy girls can't rock skinny jeans? Prove 'em wrong with Hydraulic Plus Size Ginger Skinny Jeans ($58.) The problem with most skinny jeans is their super-lowrise cut making the muffin tops a huge problem, but Hyrdaulic's come to the natural waist, showing off the curves in a sexy way. Pair them with an Emilia Blouse ($38) from B&Lu which is cinched in the middle, showcasing your sexy waist. Platform heels add some height so go for this season's strappy sandal with Alloy's Delphine Gladiator's ($34.50.) Finally, fight the last bits of winter chill with Old Navy's Belted Trench Coat ($34.50.) The belt draws attention to your waist, even bundled up.

Pear Shaped
If your body dilemma is being a little curvier on the bottom and tiny on top, don't fret. Start with a pair of trouser jeans like Alloy's Spoon Jean's Extend-Tab Stretch Trousers ($34.50 - $39.50.) A cut like this is sleek and straight but doesn't snug up and make your bottom half heavy. Pick a top that flows out at the middle like Forever 21's Leaf Print Chiffon Top ($13.50) which also has sweet details in the middle to draw attention to your teeny waist. A D'Orsay heel is open to show a little foot and make your legs look even longer so pick Jessica Simpson's D'Orsay Pump ($89.) Last, a swingy jacket pairs perfectly on top so pick one like Old Navy's Cropped Peacoat ($25 on sale.)

Petite
For you lil' gals out there, the trick is filling out and growing up. A minidress is your best pal, but try one that has tiers like Wet Seal's Multi Ruffle Dress ($26.50) to fill out your frame. Pair that with a belted jacket like Forever 21's Jasmine Slub Blazer ($14.50) to create curves where there were none before. Opaque tights are in, but they can make your legs look a little stubby so rock this dress with some sheer hosiery for length like L'Egg's Sheer Energy ($4.49.) And knee-high boots are hot, but try booties for a lengthening look. We're in love with Steve Madden's Peep Toe Ruffle Bootie ($179.)

Hello Tyra, being a graceful 60 yr old I find myself enjoying your show every chance I get, I truly admire you and your mom. You see, I myself raised two young adult males who at the present are doing very well in life. Tyra keep reaching your goals in life and may God continue to bless you always, thank you for such great topics and for reaching out to so many lives. Love Miss Coates
 
Hey Tyra! First I want to tell you that I love your show! I DVR it every day so I don't miss an episode! I was looking over some of the comments and noticed a lot of women with curvy bodies who can't find the right fits. I just wanted to tell you about a great company that I am a store manager for who offers a wide variety of sizes(1-24) and trendy styles to fit the needs of every woman. The company is called "Maurices" and is a sister company to Dressbarn. Maurices provides some great denim for curvy women, from brands like Silver, Hydralic, Vigoss, and of course Maurices brand. A lot of people are unaware of this company because they mainly go into small towns, but we have been around since 1931 and offer great fits and exceptional quality for reasonable prices. We also provide exceptional customer service to allow our customers to have a "personal shopper" experience so we can guarantee they find what they are looking for. I thought if you could pass this info to the women of the Tyra community, they would definetly love what this store can offer for ALL BODYTYPES and let them all look and feel stylish, even in this economic crisis. Thanks, and I LOVE YOUR SHOW!! Teresa
 
I am 47 and I have not seen my dad since I was 2. You should do a show on kids looking for thier parents. I found my daughter that I gave up for adoption 27 years ago and we are a great family together. I am even a grandma. I would be complete if I could find my father. I know that I have a brother that is younger than I am and I have never seen him. This is an empty spot in my life that I would like to fill. Can you help?

I'm 5'6 and weight 115 pounds. I have been trying to gain weight but after I had my third child I have lost everything (breast and butt) and can not seem to gain weight. I also have very VERY small calves what type of clothes can I wear to improve my overall appearance?
 
I have serious self confidence issues. I'm "pint sized" AND "curvaceous". I have a tough time believing when people tell me that I'm "tiny and cute".

Tyra, I had a baby almost 13 months ago, and im finding it really hard to find me clothes. First off, i dont have the best shaped body, ya know? Im more boyish style type body. I have no hips, no bottom, and its hard to keep up with the fashion when you have an odd body shape as i do. I love fashion, but when i try to find something that i like, it doesnt look that well on me. Is there any help you have for me? I can send you a full body shot image of me, that way you can get more a less of a feel of what i look like! I love your sense of fashion, but i love the Kardashians style too! Its awesome! Help me out Tyra, please! THANKS GIRL!! LOVE YA! Erika
 
Hi Tyra, thanks so much for the tips that you give out on the show and on the website.. However, I am what some of you younger girls might call a "well aged" bottle of wine...I just turned 54 and am a mother of two girls and a grandmother of 4.. A womans body and appearance goes through stages I think where it doesn't change a lot, but let me tell you, when you turn 50, it does, at least for me. My health is good, which is a plus, but I am having a hard time finding clothes that are appropriate and that fit well for my body type. I am not grossly overweight, but I am not 95 lbs either. I am 5'9" and well, lets just say...a bit over 200, hippy and of late a belly, which I never in my life had before. I lost weight a few years ago and was about 165...looked great in body, but face looked like I was 100. HELP...Please, I am at a loss as to where to go for the right look....for me... thanks,cindy
