Kristopher, I love your blog. I was just reading the advice you gave Sam and being a 16 year old girl of 5′11 I wanted to know if you had any tips for dressing tall. I weigh about 130 pounds, so I’m very petite which has turned out to be more of a burden then a blessing… I can never find clothes that fit my non-exsistant hips and tops that dont emphasize the fact that the boob gene just passed me by. Don’t even get me started on the issue of finding cute shoes with size 11 feet that aren’t the exact same Hermes ballet flats that I’ve gone through… Also, is it bad to wear heels when you sort of tower over most people? Help me, Kristopher!
Too tall for fashion,
Lexy
Ooh la love, I always wished I was super model tall like you.
And I’d still rock five-inch heels.
Or at least some modest wooden wedges, a la these woven leather Kenneth Cole New York shoes ($315), sized 11, love.
These Kenneth Cole New York shoes would rock right with a swing dress - all twiggy and leggy, you’re one of the few ladies who can really pull off blooming volume. I say spend the fall highlighting your legs for miles with painted-on jeans and loose, layered tunics.

Ok now I have a question for you - What do I wear with slouch boots (see my blog for the pair I’m wanting)
Cheers

When I was 16 I had the same problem. I was always the tallest girl in my class..shoot, I’m the tallest girl now :). I’m a little over 6 ft and have a size 12 shoe. I love heels and wedges are so comfortable. Those boots are hott!
