This is my language when i have my pictures taken “Please make me look taller” lol . I also get ” You appear tall in your pictures”, when they finally met me in person they realized i’m not. Honestly, i’m insecure of my height. When i was a kid, there is this Filipino superstitious belief that if you jump exactly 12 midnight on New Year’s Eve, you will grow taller. Boy, that’s one of the things i look forward to but unfortunately it’s not true and it never worked. Instead of complaining on what i don’t have, i’ll just work around it by dressing myself to look taller. That’s the reason why i love monochromatic style.
What is monochromatic?
In fashion, monochromatic means wearing separates of one color that have different textures and/or similar shades of that color for an overall tonal look.
What’s exciting about dressing this way, is mixing different textures of the same color hue to define the whole look. The outcome is as striking as pairing solids with prints. Better yet, it looks much cleaner and elegant. Most of all, it makes me appear taller. It gives that illusion of height.
Here is a monochromatic look that i put together from Shopbop. It is their biggest event for the season- 4 days only ! 20% off order under 500, 25% off order over 500 and more. Use code : STOCKUP18
