If your height keeps you from find the perfect pieces to add to your wardrobe, try some of these tricks.
1. There's an easy way to fix stretched out pieces.
If it's made of wool, cotton or linen, you should be able to shrink it.
2. A children's size might be your best bet.
3. Children's shoes might also fit better.
4. If you have a bigger bust, think about balance when putting together an outfit.
Empire waists that nip in at the waist are the easiest way to create a balanced shape.
5. Cuff shirts at the elbow to create more of a shape.
6. Become an at-home seamstress and perform your own easy alternations on too-long sleeves or hems.
7. Know when to bring your clothes to a tailor.
Invest in creating the right fit.
8. You can wear a maxi skirt or dress, just think about the shape you're creating.
A wide and flouncy skirt calls for a tighter top.
9. Use smaller hangers to help your clothes keep their shape.
10. Black shoes and black bottoms will elongate your legs.
11. The same goes for nude heels.
12. Layering will help fake the correct fit.
13. Cuff jeans to get the right length.
14. Shop brands that cater to shorter women.
Brands like J. Crew and Banana Republic create a lot of their pieces in petite sizes.
15. Crop tops aren't off limits.
High waisted skirts and shorts are the perfect pairing with a crop top.
16. A long tank under a cropped sweater will elongate your torso.
17. Wear what you like! You'll look great.
