Not all of us are blessed with a good height but who doesn't wish to look tall and lean. We all do. Right? One of the easiest ways to look tall and slim is by wearing a pair of chic heels but well, not everyone is comfortable walking in those heels. While some of us find it painful, others are medically not fit to wear such footwear.
What solution are we left with then? Well, some quick fashion hacks can give that illusion of height and make you look taller even when you are not wearing heels.
Nude colour footwear not only looks classy with every outfit but also makes you look taller. Your shoes can make or break your look, especially if you have shorter legs. Pick a pair of nude flats. They will give an illusion that your legs are longer. While selecting your footwear, make sure the nude colour matches close to your natural skin tone.
Another easy trick to look taller and leaner is by picking a monochrome look. Monochrome dressing is basically wearing one single colour from head to toe. Opt for darker shades if possible, like black or brown which also give an appearance of a slimmer look.
How do you like to keep your tee or shirt with a pair of pants? It can make a whole lot of difference in your entire look. If you leave them loose, untucked, they will make your legs appear shorter. However, if you tuck in your shirt or tee, your legs will appear longer than they are. You can go for a full tuck or half tuck where you only tuck in from the front and leave the rest of the fabric loose. (Look slim in a banarasi saree)
