If you think that being short/petite makes you any less attractive than taller women then you are sadly mistaken….there are ways to enhance the way you look by just dressing the right way. And trust me it is a far easier task for short women then it is for short men!
Breaking the 5 myths about dressing for short women—
Myth #1: You must keep away from short dresses.
Well, that’s not true, worn in the right manner short dresses will make you look smarter. Else, we would not have seen so much of Sarah Jessica Parker wearing short dresses in Sex and the City!
Myth #2: You must always wear long clothes as they make look taller. Long clothes do not always enhance your height they might end up hiding your body frame. And that leaves nothing for the imagination!
Myth #3: Flats are a no-no for you.
Given, the fact that flats will show your height as it is, do not hesitate to wear them. It is alright if you are not the tallest woman walking on the street as long as you are the woman most comfortable in her shoes!
Myth #4: Short hair is not for short women.
Just like short dresses, even short hair will make you look smarter, just avoid a crop as too short may not be for you.
Myth #5: Light colors will make you look shorter.
It is the pattern of your dress and not the color that will make you look attractive or average.
So these are my 7 tips for looking smarter and attractive by dressing right for short women--
Tip #1: Wear the right shoes.
Select shoes which show more of your feet. Shoes with slimmer straps when teamed with a high heel will give the illusion of longer legs.
Tip #2: A dash of vertical lines is good.
Wearing clothes with vertical lines will make you look taller but do not overdo it. If you are wearing a vertical striped (go for thin strips) shirt avoid wearing pants/skirts/any bottoms with vertical lines or patterns.
Tip #3: Avoid layered or too much clothing.
Wearing loose fitted clothes should be a no-no. Oversized t-shirts are not going to make you look any taller. Always wear your size. Avoid wearing jackets as they get the focus on only one half of the body making you look shorter.
Tip #4: Heels are for you.
Wearing stilettos with straight fitting pants/denims will make you look taller. Short dresses/skirts will best suit you when worn with stilettos.
Tip #5: Long dresses with the right pattern will make you look attractive.
Wearing an off shoulder or strapless or noodle strapped long dress can make you look attractive without adding too much weight. So the trick is to wear long without covering the whole body.
Tip #6: V necks will make you look smarter.
V necks with short sleeves or in a sleeveless top will make you look smarter.
Tip #7: Thin belts are for you.
Wearing broad belts will cut the length of your body instead go for the thin belts.
