Ask Elyse: A Problem with Heights

Dear Elyse,

I have a build that's long and slender to the point of looking a little awkward. What's the best way to balance out my frame?

Thank you,

Allison

Dear Allison,

Balancing out your build is as simple as creating a fashionable focal point to segment your shape into shorter lengths. A midsized belt at your natural waist will give you the best balance, but a chunky statement necklace like here will work just as well and they're so en mode this season.

An extra tip I would offer is to stay away from shorter length tops and high waisted jeans, which will only have you looking even more coltish.

Hope this helps,
Elyse
