Hi guys, I am 13 and domt know how to highlight my features. I do care about my appearance but I always just kinda wore what everyone else wore and now it looks really odd because I grow slower than everyone else. So I am short 4 ft 6 and 64 pounds( dont expect you to know exactly what I look like just tring to give you an image. I have short muscular legs, small bust, broad shoulders, and thin, feminine arms. I have a long nose, hazel eyes that people say looks eager and happy, minimum acne but still some, white straight teeth, and curly dirty blond hair. What would best highlight these features? Thx!!!!!!

Dragonflymagic answered Saturday January 4 2014, 12:25 am: Since you are a shorter girl, your goal is most likely to give the illusion of length. This can be done by tricking the eye using certain fashion techniques. A optical trick that makes the eye think there is more height is using darker colors for one, or making sure both your top and skirt or pants are the same color, because use of two different colors cut you off at the middle as far as the eye traveling over you. Avoid anything that would make you appear broader/wider such as horizontal lines, stripes or bulky fluffy ruffles, etc.. that will only give the pumpkin effect instead of giving the sleek vertical look.
I did a search for actresses 5 ft or under to do a comparison and see what they wore. It seems a good majority don't follow the fashion rules that help them appear taller. So really, in the end, just wear what you like, pay attention to what colors style etc... you are wearing when you get the most compliments from people. You might even try asking if its the color or the style they like or what. [ Dragonflymagic's advice column | Ask Dragonflymagic A Question ]
