Short Body Style Selections

Keys to Success

-Do not wear extra wide belts- it will cut the line
directly in half and visually shorten you
- No large bags- they will make you look smaller
- Never wear pants that are just a little too short
for you- it will cut off the line too soon and create a visually negative impact.
- Do wear your pants a little long and pair it with
some high heels
- You can wear skinny jeans if they do not have
any wiskering to break the eye line- and then
add some ankle boots- Nice combo!!

The secret to gaining a few inches in height is verysimple. The easiest and most basic rule for you is to dress in monochromatic colors.

For you, it's all about creating a visual line to elongate your body. I know, it sounds boring but, we have ways to fix that. Stick around for for the fun.
