20 Style Tricks To Help You Look Taller

In today’s society, tall people are ruling the world, especially in the modeling industry. But us short people who are 5’4” or below can’t do anything about that… until now. There are certain style tricks to help you look taller, tricks celebrities have been using for a while now. If you wish to look taller, follow these 20 tips and you’ll make people think you’re 6’5”! …OK, maybe 6′.

1. Dressing all in one color will elongate your figure and help you look taller.

2. …And the darker the outfit, the better.

3. Wedges and pumps are obviously great for adding extra height.

(And they aren’t as uncomfortable as stilettos.)

 

4. …But pointy flats will also do the trick, and they’ll look super good on you.

Because pointy flats aren’t abruptly rounded at the ends they give off the illusion of longer features.

5. (Especially if you combine them with a cute skirt.)

6. Meet: high-waisted jeans. They are your new best friend.

7. Don’t be afraid of rocking a nice maxi skirt or dress!

8. (Especially if they have a sexy opening to show off your legs.)

9. Be careful with baggy dresses, pants, and tunics.

All of these are usually comfy and can make you appear taller. But they can make you appear shorter if not worn the right way. Try styling baggy bottoms with tight, high crop tops to make you appear taller.

10. (Similar thing with capris or culottes.)

11. Here’s an idea: send your clothes to get tailored.

We’re sure you already do this, but just want to be sure! A good tailor on hand is a true life-saver.

14. If you want to look taller, add vertical stripes to your outfit.

15. (And avoid shoes that strap or tie around the ankle.)

16. Go for a lower neckline and V-necks rather than higher cuts.

17. Match the color of your shoes to the color of your pants to really add length to your legs.

 

18. If you are choosing between a tighter or looser shirt, always opt for the tighter option.

19. Don’t buy jeans that scrunch at the heel.

20. Buy your clothes in the kid’s section if you have to.
