FASHION CLOTHING FOR SHORT WOMEN

Some of our favorite Hollywood celebs are not as long and lean as you might think they are but they somehow always manage to look that way. How do they do it? Unlike them, we don’t have our own personal stylist at our beckon call. However, we can still look just as good! Just follow these easy fashion clothing tips for short women and you’ll be on your way to looking long and lean in no time!

Short Women Should Stay Away From Short Pants
If your pants do not hit below your ankles, do not wear them! This will make your legs look very short. You should always have your pants hit at your shoes, to give the illusion of elongated legs. If you are short, you may also want to stay away from certain capri pants that reach directly above your ankle. While these pants can be stylish, they can also make your legs look stumpy because they really divide your ankles from your feet. Even the highest of heels will not make you look tall in this situation. A good trick to elongate your legs is to wear straight pants that cover your shoes. This will definitely add some extra inches to your legs.

Short Women Should Stay Away From Oversized Clothing and Accessories

Oversized clothing and accessories are definitely making a comeback. While you may want to dive head first into this trend (or an oversized top) be extra cautious. An oversized shirt, jacket or handbag can give the illusion of a few extra pounds and can make you seem like you’re drowning in your clothes. The same goes for large handbags. They can be fun and helpful to carry all of your stuff around in, but can also make you look even smaller. These handbags can really make you look like the bag is carrying you instead of the other way around. The trick here is to balance proportions. Try adding a belt to show off your waist and when wearing a large handbag, make sure you’ve got heels on!

Short Women Should Stay Away From Mix and Matching Colors

You don’t only have to wear one color head-to-toe, but you should keep your outfit from being too overwhelming with the drastic contrasts of colors. For example, if you are going to wear darker jeans, pair them with a pair of dark shoes. Same thing goes for light colored pants. When you wear a lighter colored pant, make sure that you wear a light colored shoe. Nude is the perfect shoe color to go with anything.

Short Women Should Wear High Heels

High heels are undoubtedly the quickest and easiest fashion fix for every woman. High heels can immediately make you look longer and taller and even take a few pounds off your frame! If you aren’t used to wearing high heels, try wedged heels or go for a pair with a 1-2 ½ inch heel.

Short Women Should Invest In A Tailor

If you are trying to look taller or slimmer, there are just certain fashion trends you should stay away from. It is better to keep your look classy then trendy if it means you will look more proportional. Keep your look neat, with clean vertical lines and stay away from overly large clothing, and you should look and feel as fabulous as you really are!
