What kind of clothes should a tall girl wear?

Angel D asked:


I’m 5 ft 11 with long legs and a body which looks quite short in comparison.
What kind of clothes should I be wearing to make me look not so freakish?

Give me some Do’s and Don’ts if you can! ^_^
XxX
I can kinda guess the high heel thing =/
Thanks Ellis, what would I do without your help?! (Idiot)

   Do’s: Short shorts, any jeans you like, etc.
   Don’ts: A lot of accessories, very short tops (you want long ones to show off a long torso)

   well…the jeans tend to make a person look taller, especially if they are on the darker side. you may want to try some dresses with the tie wrap around the waist, this will still make you look a lil tall, but it will put the focus more on your waiste and curves, this will also hide your ****. wearing short skirts will bring your hight apperance down a bit.

   Tunic-type tops look nice on taller girls, because they’re longer and make your body look more in-proportion with your legs!

   DON’t wear high heels…wear flats.
   and wear horizantal striped clothing…it makes your appearance shorter. Dont ever wear vertical striped clothing or it will definitely make you look taller…these are the stripe rules. I think wearing tighter jeans will make you look smaller…baggy ones will make you look bigger and scary. So there you go! Hope this helps and Good Luck!! =P

   Avoid high waisted trousers/skirts – These will only lengthen your legs.
   If you’re wearing a dress – Don’t wear bold patterns, keep it simple.

   However, at 5″11 you should be working your long legs girl, I’d kill to be that tall haha xx
