Tips On How To Wear A Midi Skirt If You Are Petite

In case you don’t know, the midi skirt was a popular skirt length way backin the 1940s.
But because women were feeling suppressed and limited by the choices available to them during the early days, women started showing off their legs in mini skirts, making the midi skirt obsolete.

The “midi” is a three quarter length skirt, falling halfway between your knee and ankle. Shapes of midi skirts might vary – pencil, A-line, or circular, etc – but they are always described and characterized by the length. Girls try to avoid wearing it because the classic midis have a pesky habit of doing NIL for your shape and figure, and it can even make you look smaller than your actual height. But should it always be the case?

I say NO!

Tips For Wearing Midi Skirts

Just like what I said earlier, women know from experience that most midi skirts or even dresses can make them appear shorter and stout — two things girls like me absolutely hate! But what if we told you that if you wore it right it is possible to rock a midi skirt?

Yes it is entirely possible to wear a midi even if you are petite. The key is to wear it fully knowing about the do’s and don’ts of wearing a midi skirt,

Do’s of styling a midi skirt for petite

• First thing that you have to consider is to take your waist higher. Opting to wear a high waist midi is a great way to take your waist higher, making you look taller than you normally are!
• Tuck in! When you tuck in your blouse or button down shirt, it will look cohesive, especially if you are wearing it with a high waist midi. If you are conservative, this is a great technique too as it will only show off a bit of your skin.
• A midi skirt in nude color is a great way to make your legs look “longer” than usual, so opt for beige or colors that closely resembles your skin.
• A monotone color matching your outfit from head-to-toe look while wearing your midi skirt is also a simple yet effective technique to not only look uniform but ultimately lengthen you body. I can’t suppress this idea because it really works!

Even if you are petite, there are many ways that you can employ in wearing a midi skirt that will allow you to look taller, even if you are petite? Want to give midi a try? Then head over to 11AM and check out this front zip midi skirt to get things started for you!

Lovely Lace Dress Buying Guide

Among women clothes, the lace is one of the most feminine and beautiful add-on embellishments that you can enjoy. And for me, a black lace is the ultimate colorway which adds a bit of style, chic and sexy quality to a black dress. Why did I say so? Well, for me, a black lace dress works well for parties, events, cocktail nights or other special occasions where you need to wear a dress but don’t want to wear the standard one. Black also hides imperfections better and you won’t have  to worry too much about dirt or dust in your clothing. When paired and worn with the right accessories, a black lace dress also creates a secy, dramatic and elegant look.

Lace Accents In Black Dresses

I really love lace as an embellishment on a dress, but for me it would only work well if it is not too overpowering and it is only available in small doses? If you are considering wearing a black dress,  choosing one with carefully-placed lace accents is a lot more flattering, in my opinion, instead of going for the all-over lace look.

Another thing to add, I also think black lace dresses with a bit of see-through effect can be really really sexy and flattering. If you are a slim and tall woman, and you are comfortable with the shape of your body, I can find no reason why you shouldn’t love wearing this style of a lace dress!

Other dresses with lace accents include black dresses with lace sleeves, lace trim, or lace back panels. Just choose a dress which has a lace overlay that fits atop of a regular black dress for a layered look that is dramatic, but still appropriate. A black dress with a bit of sheer lace around the waist adds visual interest or a dress with cut-out lace side panels, but a see through black lace dress is also very sexy! Just make sure that you don’t wear white or colored under garments when you wear a black lace see-through dress. Why? Because it will be very visible even from afar, and you definitely don’t want to catch the wrong kind of attention, do you?
