Wearing bright and solid colors can be hard because not everyone feels comfortable with the way it complements their figure. But we all need a little color in our life and just because its intimidating doesn’t mean it’s impossible. Here are a couple tips to live by.
Horizontal line will always make you look wider but vertical lines can help make us appear more slimmer and taller. We styled this look with a color blocking top that has flattering vertical lines. The bold front zipper gives the look some length, even with a high wasted skirt which can make us look shorter.
Giving ourselves some length by the skirts and pants we choose also help make us appear tall. Which is why we chose a high wasted maxi dress because the length of the skirt makes our legs look tall, long and lean. But note that the length of the skirt also determine the kind of shoes we should wear to maximize the effect. If the bottom of the skirt hits the floor, put on a pair of heels. If the skirt is just floating above the floor, flats for comfort work well too. Combinations and possibilities are endless, you just gotta know how to work with what you have.
