Embrace your shortness

Accept it. Look at yourself in the mirror. Don’t lie to yourself.
You need to stand on your toes to reach certain things. You can never be in the back of a group photo.
Don’t call it “being average” , say it with me: I AM SHORT
So? Does being short mean that automatically you became evil, stupid or handicapped? NO
I’m not going to mention all the remarkable short people that existed through history, because being short doesn’t mean you are by default smart or rich either.
But if you are short and make peace with that fact of life, you should also dress accordingly.
Do not wear clothes that are baggy on you, they don’t make you look taller (or thinner). They make you look like you borrowed your dad’s clothes. They make you look shorter. They make you look sloppy, non professional and not worth of any special attention (because you’d be hiding in those horrid clothes).
You should look like what you are: a unique being.
Regarding fashion currents, this is the perfect time to embrace your shortness: trouser pleats are finally “out” and skinny jeans, tapered pants and 2-button suits are in fashion; and because of the times, there’s an ever growing number of brands that make them at very accessible prices like Uniqlo, H&M and Topman.
So, go ahead, embrace your shortness. You are off to a great start.
