first hopefully she was just teasing you because she knows it gets to you but didn't realize it would hurt you

skinny or bootleg jeans in regular bluejean colors (dark colors tend to make things look smaller)

and don't wear dipping neck shirts but do wear ones that maybe come down to your hips with a cute belt up around your waist area to give the appearance your legs are higher 01 Sep 2009 / Reply answer / 0

Choose pants and skirts with vertical details which will create a strong vertical line, making your legs appear longer. Some example of vertical detail include a front crease, piping, pleats, or a vertical row of buttons.

Step
2
Wear a monochromatic outfit. If you keep the same color from head to toe, it will not only elongate the look of your body and legs, it will also make you appear thinner.

Step
3
Put on some high heels if you can. Even an extra inch or two will help. If you really prefer flats, go for shoes with pointy rather than round toes.

Step
4
Pick dark jeans that graze the floor. Paired with the shoes you choose from the previous step, your legs will instantly look longer and slimmer.

Step
5
Skip the popular low-rise jeans and pants. A pair of slacks with a high waist tricks the eye into believing your legs start at a higher point than they actually do.
Tan legs always look at little smaller in size. Not everyone likes to fake bake (tan in a tanning bed), so if you don't sit outside for an hour a day and you will be amazed at the difference it makes.
You can also use bronzing lotion, sample one on your forearm first before applying to entire leg.

Step
2
Find some shorts, skirts, pants that look flattering on your body. Shorts are all the rage this summer, so try some on and see if they work for you.
If not try a skirt that is right at the knee, this style always looks really nice on all legs. They are also very comfortable and professional enough to wear to any occasion.
Finally, short pants or skinny pants can also make your legs look thinner the minute you put them on. Try a couple of different styles on and take you best friend to assure they look flattering.

Step
3
Finally, HEELS HEELS HEELS, I can't explain how much heels really help. If you have pants on, don't hem them as high, throw on a pair of heels and instantly taller and thinner.
If you have on a skirt, it makes you calves look great.
If you are wearing shorts, wear a wedge or espadrille for the height but they will look for casual for the shorts. (If going out at night and wearing shorts, use heels to dress them up). 01 Sep 2009 / Reply answer / 0

You can wear heels like the others said but, I don't know about you but at my school if you were to wear heels people would stare at you like your crazy. Soo you could wear the elexated flats. Those are cute((: Personally I don't really know how it feels to be 'short and stumpy' but I hate being shorter than this one girl thats really tall and skinny that everybbody 'loves'. Anyway, theres a girl at my school thats like you and she uses it to her advatage, shes actually the most popular girl and all the boys like her. You could be short and cute just like her((: lol. Hope this helped! 01 Sep 2009 / Reply answer / 0

Awww girl, that sucks to hear all the from a friend. Aviod any capris. How tall are you now? and how old are you? I was a late bloomer... all my friends grew before I did... and gues what later on I caught and surpassed them in height!!!! So be patient. I was sad too when I was 9-16... till I finally grew. so don't worry about it now. I was also small and stumpy. 01 Sep 2009 / Reply answer / 0 Replies
