Today’s post is on how to look tall if you are petite just like me. Really tiny at 5’1 especially standing next to my six-foot-tall husband.

However, today’s post is not about relationship advice (we’ll probably cover that in a separate post in the future, who knows) but rather, how to fake an illusion of height if you are petite, 5’4 and under to be more specific.

It conveys an impression that you actually know what you are saying, that you are sincere and able to tackle whatever life obstacles you may encounter.
