When free, it is favorite time pass of every girl to shop online and look for clothes and meanwhile we even do not mind looking for style tips that are majorly about all the negatives like “Do not do this…” “Stay away from this…” etc. It no more remains a style guide but it becomes a rule book, and who wants to be restricted in a certain rule book. When it comes to fashion, the industry is getting more liberal yet these style books are all focused on tall girls and what all they should do. If you are planning to go on shopping and feel free to buy what you love. Here are 12 fashion rules every tall girl should be breaking.

1. Awkward lengths and proper waist

Mostly in the style guides, you will read the term “awkward length’ for everything skirts, tops, pants and everything. The guide will say that you should pull your skirt to the natural waist level to make it look proportional. But the truth is, wear it the way it makes you feel good.

2. Mini skirt story

In the guide manuals, you will be told to wear miniskirts with utmost care as it might end up showing too much of legs. You have long legs and if you want to flaunt them, it is all your choice.

3. Avoid head-to-toe bright colors

Short girls are asked to wear bright colors to attract attention whereas tall girls are asked to be careful with bright colors. If you are confident enough that you can rock bright colors from tip-to-toe, then go for it girl.  

4. Wear long T-shirts

Your style guide would tell you not to wear long T-shirts but who cares? If you are comfortable wearing your shirt that sits on your hip or just a little under your boobs, then continue to wear them.

5. Go for bold accessories

Your guide may ask you to balance your jewelry with your frame. But it is better to fill up your jewelry box with whatever you like be it bold statement jewelry or some simple regular stuff.

6. Avoid shrunken dress

Your guide me ask you to avoid cropped, shrunken, small or short clothes. Do not give a heed. It you are into shorter hemlines, wear them.

7. Use larger bags

Just find a bag that can hold all of your stuff. You can even rock tiny clutch or bags even being tall. Your size should not determine the type of bag you should buy.

8. Wear flat shoes

Your guide may tell you to wear smaller heels or flats so that you do not tower over others but remember how models slay us with their heels on ramps. Wear whatever you feel comfortable with be it heels, shoes or flats.

9. Avoid small prints

Not everyone wants to wear a giant print or floral print because that is too big. Sometimes small floral prints or fine stripes too can work for you. You can rock small prints as well.

10. To wear long pants

While tall girls actually find the pair of pants that are long enough, but it should be made mandatory to wear full-length pants. You can also choose from variety of clothes from capris to culottes to ankle-length pants to anything that you wish to wear.

11. Wear a belt

Your style guide will ask you to add belt to every look of yours to give you a waist. Do not forget you already have a waist and it is your wish to show it by adding a belt or not to show it. There is nothing wrong if you do not add a belt to your look.

12. Cuff too-short pants

Cuffing pants is a cool look, but it’s not something that you have to do. If you like your pants hitting just above your ankles then wear them exactly the way they are.
