Know the Perfect Skirt for Your Height

While it’s been accepted that anyone can flaunt their style the way they deem fit, it’s also important to wear the right outfit that fits instead of stepping out and alarming souls – this is particularly common when you see some ladies in skirts. Skirts will forever remain one of the key essential clothing items for ladies. One fascinating quality about skirts is its versatility. It’s both attractive and dressy- could be worn for business meetings, parties, going to the movies with your girls- and you could rock the same skirt again and again. All you have to do is change the top as well as the accessories and voila you’re good to go. However, skirts can be tricky when it comes to body types, as it could be very selective in that department. Before buying a skirt you have to consider the ideal one that goes with your stature and height because the right skirt will make you look oh so fabulous but the wrong skirt will make you look frumpy. If it’s usually tough for you to know the perfect skirt for your height, here’s a guide to help you. For petite’s – under 5’3: The A-line mini skirt is perfect for petite girls. It’s high-waisted so it makes you look taller while the slight flare makes your legs look slender.
