No vertical stripes

Wear lower heels
Avoid high heels, they create the illusion that you are even taller and your legs are thinner than they really are. Opt for lighter
shoes with low heels and of course boots. Boots can hide skinnier legs very smartly. Wear them with skirts as an extra style point.
Get rid of your skinny jeans or super-tight pants
Extra-fitted jeans are not meant for your body type. Instead wear straight cut denim, parallel fit jeans or trousers with a tight flare at the bottom.
Wear chunky clothes
Besides the fact that they are so comfy and keep you warm, these fabrics add more shape to your look and in the meantime create the illusion of fullness.
Avoid belts at mid-waist
Wearing a belt at mid-waist makes you look even thinner, so it is better to let go of these pieces of your wardrobe.
Go for baby-doll style clothes
These trendy items add more curves and soft lines to your silhouette. Baby-doll style clothes make you appear fuller and optically make you look shorter. Don’t be afraid to use lively colors and printed fabrics. They draw away the attention from the body shape itself. However don't exaggerate, it is better to avoid prominent, striking patterns and designs.
Wear scarfs and high cowl-neck tops and sweaters
Scarves are the must-have accessories for this season. Play with your imagination. You can choose from plenty of colors, materials and designs. A smartly chosen scarf or a high cowl-neck blouse can hide a longer neck very smartly and will add some personal touch to your style.
