Some women are not gifted with the height. As such, there are those who desperately find ways and means to look taller by taking supplements and using products that promise to add inches to their height.
But being petite is not something to be ashamed of. It’s hereditary so if you have parents and other first degree relatives on both sides who are of medium height, don’t expect to grow much taller than them.
Height is just one aspect of your physical being. How you carry yourself is more important than how tall you are. It’s all a matter of attitude.
And don’t be so desperate about growing taller that you go to the extent of taking all those supplements and buying products promising to pump up your height. It would be better to accept your natural yourself and find other ways instead to make you look taller such as through fashion.
Dressing up properly is one effective way of achieving that tall look. There are various ways to do it so hopefully, you’ll take them seriously and remember the steps every time so you can freely walk around with confidence.
The pants
If you want to wear pants, you can use either the short or long type. For shorter pants, the best step you can take is to expose the waistband. Pair it then with heels that come down low on the foot.
Long pants are great to wear as well. But be sure to choose the flared fit. This way, the wide bottoms can hide your high heels and wedges. The effect is a taller you.
The color
Using pale colors such as the nude is ideal. This helps create more space thereby making you look taller than your real height. This pale tone should be applied to your skirt or pants and even your footwear.
Remember to stick to one color or monochromatic look to create an illusion of height instead of using different colors which can divide an observer’s attention.
The lines
Vertical lines are best in the design of your shirt or dress whether it’s pinstripes, pleats, raffles or zipper. This strategy allows people to see more height than width.
