    Flare has found wearable runway looks for every shape. You don't need to wander wondering what clothes to wear. Check this out...

    For Petite:

    Fashion finds
    1. Silk top, $90, Banana Republic.
    2. Leather belt, $315, Suzi Roher.
    3. Cotton/polyester-blend dress, $128, Kensie, The Bay.

    7. Leather shoes, $580, Davis by Ruthie Davis.

    Style tips:
    ● Voluminous shapes can overwhelm petite frames. Cinching the waist controls the volume.
    ● Hemlines should be long or mini—anything between shortens the leg.
    ● A monochromatic head-to-toe look creates the illusion of a taller body.
    ● Sharply tailored pieces and short dresses are no-fail basics..

    Fashion Finds
    1. Acrylic/wool-blend coat, $199, Mango.

    Style tips:
    ● Don’t try to hide your height. Stand tall.
    ● Experiment with different lengths. Short doesn’t always mean better.
    ● Play with proportion, such as a voluminous jacket over a skinny pant.
    ● Prints and texture add dimension to any look.

    ● Tailored styles, such as fitted shirts and pencil skirts, accentuate your curves.
    ● Avoid loud graphic or floral prints and opt for small and playful patterns instead.
