    CHI, you are hilarious to watch. Even my husband came to peek as I was giggling watching your dramatic clip! 100% agreed. I have longer torso and shorter legs, and I don't like to wear high heels. But I always wear flare leg jeans with block heels. They make me look taller and my legs longer. I learned to tuck my tops in since I randomly stumbled on your video showing how to tuck. I have been doing that since and it always works... It even revived some of my tops that are a little loose fitting and on the long side. I didn't like to wear them before as when I don't tuck them in, they make me look short and shapeless. Now I like to wear them again as they look great tucked in, being on the loose side, they have this relaxed and cool vibe when tucked in. Love your channel!

    Love your videos, Chi! I always take my flare jeans to the tailor. It only costs $16 to make the jeans fit me perfect in length! I take my ankle boots or wedge heels to get that leg-lengthening look. Great tips! You are so cute in your dramatic and girl next door clips!

I appreciate your explanations for why a look is better with a basic tweak here or there. I am 5'2" also, home with Covid, bingeing on your channel, for all the videos I have missed.

    I love the look of a nice crisp tucked top under a nice pair of light wash vintage flare jeans with black platform boots, literally so chic and flattering. However I get issues with bloating from time to time, and tucking my top just makes me feel miserable. I can't stand the look of loose top and flares, so I go for either baggy or wide leg jeans to conceal and continue my day, maybe not the most flattering but at least I don't look feel like I'm going to explode from my stomach lol. Also 100% cotton vintage bell bottom flares do fall much more nicely and keep their shape better over time versus modern polyester spandex blends. 😀

    • @edennis8578
      @edennis8578 Před 2 lety

      Yup. My tucking days are long gone. I find that it helps to wear top and bottom colors that are close or matching. That way, there is no sharp cutoff between the top and bottom, just a smooth column of color.

    I think tucking your shirt is a really good idea so that either the man or the woman can see your view on just how you really do look like. I never leave my shirt i wear all hanging out

    Thanks for this video. I find it more and more difficult to find boot cut or flare leg jeans in the store. Recently I went into my friendly or not so friendly gap store, asked for boot cut or flared leg and the associate told me I can only get them on line. In years past gap had all different leg shapes in stock, not ANY MORE.

    • @catf.8412
      @catf.8412 Před 2 lety

      Right? My inseam is between 26-29 in depending on how the pants fit and most bellbottoms I find have srsly crazy long inseams. Like they don't just cover my shoes, they would probably go 10 inches past my TOES. Finding ones that aren't light wash denim or made of a thin legging material with crazy patterned stripes is hard. I'd prefer black but I feel like putting another filter on my already specific search will make it impossible. I hope you get suggestions that work & good luck! 🖤

    Love love love this video. The only thing I slightly disagree with is the sneakers. Certain styles of sneakers go great with a trumpet bell. I love vintage 70s style sneakers with them in the Sunmer but also platform booties, and strappy wedges. It's so refreshing to see a petite minded stylist. 😍

I tried flare jeans recently and it looked horrible on me although it did make my legs look very long! What do you suggest? I do like straight jeans midrise and girlfriend jeans.

    5'2" here and I had an accident with my ankle that lead to CRPS so I can't wear heels anymore (that was over 90% of my shoes) so I'm lost with this trend 😭 I don't know if I should hem a pair and wear pointed flats or skip these jeans. The petite struggles 😩

    • @rylissanna6491
      @rylissanna6491 Před 2 lety +1

      I think that sounds like a really good idea - and with flare jeans I recommend that you get them hemmed so that the bottom is very close to the ground, but not touching it (obviously), as that will have the best elongating effect. And remember to wear the shoes you want to wear with them while they are pinning the hem. I absolutely love flare jeans but they are not the most convenient for all situations or if heels are not an option. They are exclusively a summer/fall jean for me because they don't mesh well with snowy, icy winters that periodically melt before its over.
