10 Easy Styling Tricks To Look Taller

 Below, we outline how to look taller using the fashion you’ve got in your closet.

Rock out with vertical stripes:

It’s the oldest trick in the book for a reason: Vertical stripes create long lines, thus making you look, well, longer. Bonus: Stripes are one of spring’s biggest trends, so you’ll have absolutely no problem locating some cute striped options.

Dresses With Slits:

Whether a mini, midi, or maxi, opt for a dress with a slit. By allowing your leg to peek out the slightest bit, they will look instantly longer without exposing too much.

Wear One Color Head-to-Toe:

Dressing in a single tone gives the illusion of length. Stick to deep hues of army green, burgundy, and navy when styling this trend.

Flare Jeans:
With their fitted top an flowing out to a wide hem, flares make everyone look taller. Look for styles with a slim shape above the flare and a floor-grazing length for the most flattering shape

Miniskirt or Shorts:

If you’re going to go short, go short. Within reason, of course, but a skirt that hits your leg at mid-thigh will make your legs look much slimmer and longer than a skirt that cuts them exactly in half, at the knee.

Tuxedo Pants:

Vertical stripes will play tricks on the eyes in the best way possible. A continuous stripe up the side of your trousers, in a tuxedo or track pant style, will slim and lengthen—head-to-toe!

Turtlenecks:
Turtlenecks will draw attention to your neck, thus elongating the lines of your torso. Look for slim shapes that don’t add much bulk and layer other pieces on top to take full advantage of this styling tip.

Pointy-Toe Flats:
Opting for flats over heels? Go pointy-toe. The shape will make your foot seem longer and allow the eye to more naturally travel all the way down your silhouette.
High-Waisted Shapes
Raising your waistline will make your legs seem longer. Whether a skirt or pants, reach for styles that rise above your hips and tuck in your top to accentuate that new waistline!
