    • @kjones2008
      @kjones2008 ปีที่แล้ว

      Consider low vamp vs high vamp shoes, coloration (skin tone will be “lengthening”), openness of shoes (strappy vs solid), and the heaviness of the shoes (bulk, attached geegaws, and fabrication).
      Play and take photos. Find out which “rules” work for you.

    Great video as always, brilliant advice, thank you! Don't be afraid of your height, I'm also 5'2" and I love being petite 🥰 embrace your stature and enjoy being able to wear tall heels, I wouldn't be a inch taller for all the world. I can enjoy the help and protection of tall people, I can wear all styles and my boyfriend says I'm "fun size", it wouldn't be so much fun being 5'8" for example! Lots of love 💘

    • @teresacarle294
      @teresacarle294 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey, hey 👋 now. I'm 5'7", there's room for us all to be fun size😉. It simply depends on the height of our partner...🤍.
      My mom was 5', my dad 6'2", & bro 6'1". In a family pic 📸 at his wedding💍 , the three of us looked like 🌲 Land of the Giants 😳 compared to her 🧚‍♀️.
      🤔The photographer should've snapped the photo w/her on the highest landing & us on lower steps around like her ⚜️ royal court. That way, we wouldn't tower ⬆️ quite so obviously above her. (Either that or like 👑 Prince George made her stand on stack of coffee table books📚 to make up some of the difference.)
      😁You also made me think of a former boss. He was probably 5'2", a Southerner from an Ivy League background, & a former 🪖Army Colonel w/a serious Napoleon Complex. 😍 I loved wearing my highest heels 👠 around him. Also my 80s tortoiseshell & gold round fashion eye glasses that he hated.
      😊Good times!

    Your advice is timeless and spot on, so us older ladies can get help too. As we go through the stages of our life, needs change, vertigo kicks in and heels are out. Our feet change too, weight, and lifestyles like retirement all are a factor in what we do and what we wear. Florida living is all about comfort...... loose, linen (I sew), low sandals and my now apple shape likes straight leg pants. We have to accommodate and factor in these changes. Sometimes I look to see what aging actors are wearing........and of course Ms. Chi.........hope your feeling better:)

  • @ms.schnapp7415
    @ms.schnapp7415 ปีที่แล้ว

    Love these tips! A lot of times we don't think about how shoe type affects length appearance. I will say often times we are in situations where we can't wear heels. For example, we'll be standing for a long time or will be walking. There are many differences among sneakers too and you can find some that are wider/taller/flesh toned, that help create height.

      🤔How about a wedge or platform? Trinny of London is 5'10", but has the long torso/low waist/short leg scenario. I'm a 5'7" hourglass (vs her rectangle), but we share the same configuration & challenge. Our legs can easily look stumpy 🪵 in the wrong silhouette🤣.
      Her #1 rule to elongate her frame is wearing that continuous column of color ↕️, but she does take far greater risks w/her footwear. This fashionista typically wears a wedge underneath longer length flare or wide leg. She'll often wear a platform white sneaker or silver brogue under a more voluminous palazzo pant. In all these cases, all you can see is a long expanse of pant leg. There's no shoe peering out from under a hem that chops ✂️ her off.
      😉If you can't match your shoes & socks|tights w/your bottom (i.e., skirt or pant)〰️when all else fails go for nude shoes/hosiery. You can choose a skin toned sling back, a loafer, a ballerina, a sneaker, a boot, etc. At least visually, they will not stunt your height. Chi's got loads of videos on the topic & 💯% made a believer out of me.

      I think slim straight leg jeans are flattering as long as the hem hits just above the ankle bone, showing the slightest skin. Also , i like lightweight trousers (even tho Chi says not to). The key is to find lightweight, high waist, flat front slimmer cut, and the hem barely floats the ground. Again , as long as the pant has a slimmer cut with light fabric I feel it is stylish. Also the top should be a more tailored slim fit to not overwhelm our short stature , tucked in (or cropped at waistline) with a stylish coordinating belt.
