My friends and I are always wondering, why were we born in petite size? Being a mini size girl, there are a lot of inconvenience in our daily life. Being unable to grad the handrail in the MTR when you are wearing high heels and no where to grad a vertical handrail; being unable to take things from high cupboards; tired while you on duty and was responsible to clean the blackboard; when you saw a piece of maxi on shopping website with your favourite cream colour and nice chiffon material and with the model wearing it just at a nice length, you are so excited when you confirm your purchase but when you receive it, you will have to give it to you sister who is much taller than you because, to you, it will never be a maxi-dress, it will always be an oversized dress which you can even wear it as a tube dress.
Well then I thought of, maybe I can generate some mix and match skills and share it to other girls with the same problem. Our size can never be a restriction for us to wear nicely and visually, make us taller.=]
From Lookbook.nu, we have a lot of nice girls showing us their mix and match skills to make them look taller and elongated their proportion other than just using high heels. Firstly, do remember to make your skirts' length to cover just the upper half of your legs. If you don't mind, you can even make the proportion of your upper leg into 5 parts, and just cover up the upper 2/5, leave the rest 3/5 for sexy stockings if you wish. That's a magic proportion of body and feet, and visually sexy with a shorter body, slimmer legs.
Secondly, a high waist proportion makes you easier to obtain a long legs proportion with a shorter upper body. Convex curve is not a preferable idea to elongate your lower body proportion while concave curve, just like the girl in the right picture bellow,has a better body proportion than the left one. And she has got the perfect 2/5 coverage with her black mini skirt. And she added on some little details with a pair of white fluffy socks to go with her brown leather shoes, to avoid making her feet too boring and empty. The girl in the left picture is nothing wrong but the flare pleated skirt with an "umbrella" effect inevitably make her feet look shorter with and quite stout, no offense, just comparably stout with a contrast on the right.
Thirdly, a wonderful and eye-catching top can do you a favour to divert other's focus on your height, or I should use imperfection. Nice printed top with large prints or dazzling patterns and details will have better delusion than a plain top which, on one hand, might have to be skillful when you go with the mix and match details, on the other hand, makes you visually stouter than a dark colour or patterned top. You can definitely match the patterned top with shorts or hot pants( sexy and definitely grants you a pair of long legs, visually=P) or high-waist peplum or pants.
Lastly, it comes to the magic of accessories, mostly gather on the upper part of your body. Detailed accessories will definitely have better visual delusion than a plain and simply accessories to divert people from focusing on your height. While at the same time, raised their attention from the whole body onto the upper part, visually elongated your height. Just like Kruy in her sky blue ruffled blouse and salmon pink laced shorts and her detailed necklace. Her proportion is just perfect for her high waist pants has visually raised her feet length few inch above and her necklace guide your attention to the upper part of her body.
So, do you have any tips to share with me also?=]
cheers
