As a tall girl, finding clothes that fit well can be a challenge. However, with a few styling tips, you can make the most of your height and confidently rock any outfit.
Wear pants and shorts at your natural waistline or mid-rise. Most women think high-waisted pants and skirts are the key, but when you think about it, your essentially shortening your torso.
The only way high-waisted bottoms will work for a tall frame is to balance out the top by wearing a monochrome top. It will help with balancing the clothes on your body.
The goal is to balance your body and have harmony with your proportions.
Here are some tips to keep in mind:
STYLING TIPS FOR TALL GIRLS
The 🔑 is to wear your pants, shorts, and skirts at your natural waistline or mid-rise.
SHORTS
Wear your shorts at a natural waistline or mid-rise with longer tops ( No cropped tops)
BALANCE OUTFITS WITH SHORTS
- Wear shorts with medium-long tops
- Wear shorts with long tops that are tucked at your natural waistline
- Wear shorts with long tops that are not tucked, but keep in mind this type of shirt isn’t like a tunic, but more so of a standard length
- When the shorts are on the longer side, you can wear a tucked or untucked top with any style
SKIRTS
- Wear your skirts at your natural or mid-rise waistline
- If you wear a high-waisted skirt, you should wear a top that elongates your top, like vertical stripes, turtle necks, or monochrome tops.
- Knee-length or longer skirts work well with this body type.
- Mid-length or long skirts work as well. If you want to wear a top untucked with a mid or long skirt, it should be slightly tucked in order for the outfit to look harmonious.
- Short skirts paired with a long top that’s not tucked and pair of booties will create a long line.
TROUSERS
- When wearing trousers, go for a mid-rise or natural waistline
- Ankle or full-length pants with any top work well together
- When it comes to cropped pants, the only way it can be done is if you can balance the look, for example:
- Paring cropped pants with a monochrome top with sleeves to create a long line. ( No sleeves are okay too )
- Never wear cropped pants and cropped jacket, it will not look harmonious
DRESSES
- Wear knee length or longer dress for a tall girl with a long frame
- If the dress has a permanent natural waistline definition or longer it will work, but if the permanent waistline is high towards the breast, it
- Oversized dresses work well, but I would go for long-shirt dresses.
BOTTOM LINE
Always check your tops, bottoms, dress length, and waistline positions before leaving the store or home. Everything has to be in harmony with your proportions. Always try different combinations to see what works best for you.
Remember, confidence is key. Embrace your height and own your style!
