In a recent post titled ‘Short-Girl Problems: My Top 3 Tips For Lengthening Your Look’, Kim revealed the tricks she uses to look taller. Regularly seen through the easily manipulatable world of social media, the reality-TV personality works hard to create the illusion that she’s as tall as some of her model friends.
While we love to peek into the world of the Kardashian sisters, some of her tips left us a little skeptical…
1.Wear nude or clear heels
While clear heels seem to be silently becoming a ‘thing’, we’re not sure whether they actually make you look taller than your average pair of heels. While practicality doesn’t feature highly on the list of Kardashian fashion priorities, these seem to be more high maintenance than they’re worth. On the other hand, nude heels are always a win. They extend the visual line and create the impression of lengthier legs. They’re super flattering on everyone!
2. Wear calf-length pants
Steer clear of any form of cropped pants if you’re trying to look taller – particularly those that cut off at the calves! As a basic rule, the longer the continuous block of color, the longer your legs look – which is counterintuitive to Kim’s ‘trick’. Wearing mid-length pants bisects your legs, making them appear stumpier.
3. ALWAYS wear high heels!
This one’s a no-brainer, but we can’t say it doesn’t work!
