Short is the New Tall

There are all these rules for short gals. You can't wear maxi dresses because you'll look shorter. You can't wear capri pants because they cut your legs and you'll look shorter. You can't wear skirts or dresses past the knees because you'll look shorter. Well, I say, screw it! Maxi dresses are so comfortable and they look great. And since it's one long, flowy dress, I think anyone can pull them off, even us shorties. Same with capris. But just make sure they are hitting just below the knee or mid-calf. Otherwise, you'll just be flooding it. And lastly, starlets like Reese Witherspoon always wear skirts and dresses that aren't longer than knee length in order to elongate their legs. However, I think the right hem at longer lengths can still work. It just needs to be the right fit and cut.

The bottom line though is, where what is most comfortable for you. All of us have a signature style. Mine does involve capris.
