Amora's grizzled head poked around the landing. "We's friend's, ain't we? Why should I git all uppity—seein' as how my duds ain't fit to wear? I've bin wearin' 'em since spring, heh, heh. Naah—that be right fine with me. I'd give ya some of my britches—if'n ya needed 'em—an' if' n I had 'em."
Figure flattery—isn't purely about masquerade and deflection—among other things—it is a thing of equipoise, isn't it?. The expanse of your legs in the sense of your torso, the thickness of your shoulders in connection with your hips—these whatchamacallits carry weight to your blanket mien—conjointly, just like bric-a-brac—they can be engineered.
Customarily—to elude cutting your body right through the middle horizontally—each outfit is ought to be either "short-over-long" (or full) or "long-over-short" (or narrow). A teeny-weeny jacket over an A-line skirt—or a cropped jacket over trousers—is a one-man to swing the short-over-long look.
Differently—a long jacket with skinny pants or a tunic over a pencil skirt—engineers a long-over-short (or narrow outfit). Following—you wish to work with your own proportions.
Are you—short-waisted (short torso, longer legs) or long-waist (long torso, shorter legs)?. To cotton on—compute the distance between your bottom rib and the top of your hip bone. If it brings a few inches—the implication is that you are short-waisted; at least four inches—then you are long-waisted.
Immediately you know—you are hankering to fig up a waist-band—that stabilizes you out. Granted that you are short-waisted—turn to lower-waistline, and in case that you are long-waisted—revolve around a higher one.
