    Default Dressing to look taller...?

    So I'm a about 5'2 but I just feel so short and hate it with passion! You can do use clothes to create illusions of curves, proportion etc but can I make myself looking a bit taller with the right kind of clothes. I've heard mini skirts and heels make your legs look longer, though I still feel shy about wearing a mini skirt ;P Thank you

    I think it's called the "empire waste", basically clothes where the waste band is higher up, right below the breasts. A dress in that style really elongates the legs.

    Things to avoid might be tight fitting jeans.

    Yeah heals are a good option, not sure about the mini skirt... considering that kind of look might only be appropriate for certain occasions, ya know?

    In the end though you gotta embrace your height and lurve it! I don't know if you watch those "So You Think You Can Dance" shows, but I do, and those dancers are the first people I thought of when you mentioned your height. They're EXTREMELY cute and sexy and love saying, "The best things come in small packages!"

    Pants with pin stripes also make the legs look longer.

    Not sure that moxi is going to return, this was written in July...

    However, think Tom Cruise, he adds 2 inches by boofing up his hair higher, and wears lifts of 2 inches in the heels of his shoes...

    Ha, I'm kind of in the same boat with the original poster, 5 feet tall..

    So yeah, tight jeans, boots with heels, maybe a top or blouse with some sort of stripes..

    If you're wearing a dress, don't use a belt, as it "stops" the continuity and flow.
