Short Torso

Challenge: Cropped jackets
Why it works: Despite what the measurements tell you, you can pair short (waist) and short (top) without actually stunting your height. The trick is all in the color combination. Choose a bold jacket and dark or monochrome pieces underneath, so you won't be able to tell where your waist begins or ends. It's all a wonderful illusion.
