Kate HudsonWe've all had that friend in high school whose mom wore miniskirts even though she was way old. Or that lady at the bus stop every morning who rocks a mini like she's not a day over 20. Is this appropriate or should minis be dead to those over 30?

Filed under: Shoes, Flatter Your Figure

Who doesn't love a tall, sexy boot in the fall? It's a great way to add a little edge to an otherwise simple outfit, and when added to an already sexy outfit ... well, just watch the heads turn as you walk by! But, finding the right boot can be tough, especially if you have bigger calves.

Flatter Your Figure - What about shoes?

Filed under: Shoes, Flatter Your Figure

You can wear the most gorgeous dress, or put together the most flattering jeans and top, but so many people make a mistake when it comes to the last accessory they put on -- their shoes. You might not realize it, but the wrong shoes can take you from looking long and lean to appearing short and stumpy.

Of course, if you start off with the right pants, that's a great start, as is wearing the right style for your shape. And once you've done that, we've got the right shoes for you! Check out the gallery to see how you can look stylishly slim while still (hopefully) being able to walk.

Why aren't you wearing this? ASSETS Terrific Textured Cable Twist Tights

Filed under: Accessories, Must Haves

They will serve you well in a million different occasions, helping you to get away with skirts that are a little shorter than you'd normally wear, and, if you go with something textured, like these, you'll add some interest to your outfit, too.

We dedicate the last "Suit up" installment to those long ladies that we secretly despise for their limby... uh... ness.

Flatter Your Figure: Summer skirts for thick legs

Filed under: Clothing, Dresses, Flatter Your Figure


If your legs aren't exactly your favorite feature, you might be tempted to sweat it out all summer in long pants to hide them. We understand -- when every actress and supermodel has thin thighs and perfectly designed calves, it can be scary to bare your own legs.

However, even if you're not up to wearing shorts, you should definitely consider a skirt for this summer -- it'll feel great to get the breeze on your legs, and you'll look ready for summer. Check out the gallery for examples of what types of skirts will look best with your legs.

Many of us women out there suffer during the summer because we don't have stems like a supermodel.

Flatter Your Figure: Lengthen short legs

Filed under: Clothing, Jeans, Dresses, Flatter Your Figure


If you have short legs, there are a number of things you can do to make them look longer, none of which include hanging by your ankles to stretch them out. The way you dress can make a dramatic difference in the way your legs look.

While wearing a monochromatic leg (pants or skirt, socks or tights, and shoes all in a similar color) is certainly elongating, it's not always practical. Are you going to wear red tights with a cute red sundress in the middle of summer? No way! We've got a few tricks you can employ this summer to make the most of what you've got, as well as a few things we strongly suggest you stay away from. Check out the gallery to learn more!

Flatter Your Figure: Best summer dresses for pear shapes

Filed under: Clothing, Dresses, Flatter Your Figure


One of the best things about summer is getting to wear all those summer dresses. Honestly, what's easier? You throw on a cute little dress, a hot pair of sandals, and you're out the door! However, in order to look your very best, you'll want a cute little dress that flatters your cute little (or not so little) figure.

If you're a pear shape, meaning that your excess weight tends to gather around your butt and thighs rather than your upper body, you're in luck come summer. You might not be excited about shorts, but after you try on a few of the right summer dresses, you might not want to bother with shorts ever again. Check out the gallery to see what you should be wearing, and, of course, what you should avoid.

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes, Celebrities with Style


There's no doubt that we love the way our legs look in extremely high heels -- put us in a 4" or 5" heel, and we'll show you legs that seem to go on forever, like our pal Gwyneth Paltrow over to the right. However, the New York Times recently had an article about the high, high heel and how women walk in them.

And, of course, the answer is the same as how one would move a 600 pound gorilla -- very carefully.
