Trousers

* While choosing the trousers choose the one that fits you well. They can also do a hell for you, if you will choose the wrong style. They should not be too tight.

* Long, wide and fully flared trousers are the best for the ones having short legs as they cover the shoe and give an illusion of leg length by adding inches.

* High waistbands are the current trend of the season. They lengthen the legs, thus very high in demand.

Dresses

* Empire waist dresses is another good option. Cincture falls just under the bust line, creating a longer look for legs.

* Long, ankle touching maxi dress is also very flattering for elongating legs. Their close fitting disguise the heeled shoes worn under it, thus imparting lengthening look to legs.

Tops

Jackets

Colors

* Prints on a dress also serve a lot in giving longer appearance to legs. Like vertical chevron on the lower part of a dress give taller look while horizontal chevron gives an even shorter look.

Shoes

* Dont do a mistake of wearing flat shoes. You can wear ballet flats but that too with dresses ending above the knees. Pointed shoes are good to wear rather than rounded or squared ones.

* Stilettos can be teamed up with any outfit. A pair of sexy and stylish stilettos will make you appear taller. High-heeled shoes should be worn with dresses below knees. But remember it should be of the same color of the dress.
