Cropped Cigarette Pants


How can one get longer legs?
I'm 5'7" so I'm not too unsatisfied with my height, but my upper body vs. lower body is somewhat disproportionate. Any answers that can help with leg lengthening (no hormones, no surgery) or any height increasing website/resources would help.

Create the illusion of longer legs by combining silhouettes that lengthen your lower half.

Instructions



* STEP 1: Mix lengths when you must wear a suit. Wear long jackets with shorter skirts, and short jackets with longer skirts.

* STEP 2: Select high-waisted pants and skirts, as these styles create the illusion that your legs start in a higher place. Ignore this tip if you're short-waisted.

* STEP 3: Opt for short skirts and shorts where appropriate. Skirts or shorts to the knee will highlight the shortness of your leg.

* STEP 4: Choose long, tapered pants such as leggings or cigarette pants. Wear capri pants and pedal pushers for casual spring and summer days.

* STEP 5: Wear shirts, jackets and coats that are short in length. Go for crop tops on warm days.

* STEP 6: Avoid tops that hit the hips and tunics and long blazers. These will lengthen your torso, thereby shortening the lower half of your body.

* STEP 7: Consider wearing all one color. This creates a long visual line.

* STEP 8: Give yourself a slight boost with a low to midheight heel. You can even find casual tennis shoes with a 1-inch heel.

* STEP 9: Steer clear of cuffed and wide-leg pants.



Tips & Warnings



* Good posture will enhance any figure. Stand tall, with your shoulders back and your blades down your back. Keep your chin held high.
