Daily Struggles All Short Girls Experience on the Regular ...

Although I'm currently in my 20s, I've been 5'2 since the sixth grade. Finding clothes that fit on the first try has always been a constant struggle. There are so many fashion trends that look great on the hangers or mannequins - until you actually try them. If you're a shorty like me, going shopping can be the best or the worst thing that's ever happened to you. Here are just a few of the daily struggles that all short girls can relate to.

Wondering if You Have the Height to Pull off That Maxi Dress

Wondering if You Have the Height to Pull off That Maxi Dress This has the potential to be a total success or utter failure.

UPD:

Maxi dresses may seem like the domain of taller women, but it's all about the cut and fit. Shorter fashionistas, fear not! You can rock this look too! Opt for high-waisted styles that elongate your legs or choose a hemline that doesn't drown your frame — think petite sizes or a breezy side slit. A pair of wedges or heels can add those extra inches to perfect the outfit. So go ahead, embrace that flowy fabric and own your style, because it's not about height; it's about attitude.
