Your pose and clothing choice are not optimal.
Hourglass with slightly heavier hips is the best I can say (your upper body is hidden by your arm and your lower has a hip tilt that skews the stance).
Cheers, h.
I do think you have a nice hip to shoulder balance.5 -
Stand straight towards camera with arms to the side, as much as possible for better accuracy.
I would say a pear. 🍐5 -
If you're using breast to waist to hip ratio, you're a Pear shaped. If you choose shoulders to waist to hips ratio, then you're an hourglass.
Agree @clothing and pose not being optimal to gauge and answer you as internetty accurately as we can.4 -
I would say that currently, at least, you’re tending towards pear, although I suspect that you may be holding any weight you may have left to lose on your lower waist and hip.
Again though, that photo makes it tough to tell, with your right hand obscuring your right hip and your left hand holding the phone up. The forward leg is skewing you to the left so that hip is flexed.3 -
Agree with above re difficulty of this picture, but wanted to chime in that it doesn’t really matter. Why ask people to put a label on you that will only stress you out later? Just try to appreciate who you are and work on making yourself better.9

Agree with the above poster. why put a label on it. You have a great shape and look healthy. it is very difficult to tell with the one leg back.1

Uhhh... strawberries? Jk Opps... not a choice. You look nothing like a fruit. More like a pretty young lady. Who cares what kind of fruit you look like. How do you feel about yourself?2

you look like a person.

this is an hourglass

Those are fashion terms, not fitness terms.7

As an apparel fit expert who’s recently spent hours analyzing bodyscans caegorizing them acording to body type, I’d your an hourglass but I would really need you to stand straight with a front and side photo to say for sure.
But to others point, these are fashion terms, not fitness terms. They do serve a purpose but they don’t mean much unless you’re trying to decide whether to buy curvy fit or regular fit pants.3
