At 5 ft 2 and a bit this is something I use frequently when creating outfits to help look taller.

Claire Lopez on Instagram: "Footwear with dresses and skirts… This was another recurring issue that you wanted help with (footwear with jeans/trousers also to come) so hopefully this will help those of you feeling frumpy in the dress/skirt + trainer combo. 👟 firstly make sure your dress isn’t too short. That’s often the issue rather than the actual footwear! 👟 try a chunkier trainer style for a bit of height ☀️For summer espadrilles are great for a dressier daytime look 💫 I also like a The Dress, Footwear With Jeans, Summer Espadrilles, Chunky Trainers, Dresses And Skirts, Jeans Trousers, Too Short, Dress Skirt, Espadrilles

Claire Lopez on Instagram: "Blazers…

They are a wardrobe staple for a reason because they’re such a versatile piece that you can wear over dresses, skirts, trousers and denim; dress it up for work; down for casual and more or less everything in between. Never mind that it’s a brilliant option in this crazy weather. 

And for the summer a linen blazer is something I wear on repeat. 

You do need to pay attention to fit, fabric and style to make sure you get it right and it isn’t the case that a blazer will work with absolutely every item - as ever you need to to consider the proportions within the outfit. But if you want more details on this and what to look for/avoid then head to stories which is full of tips and info. 

One to save for inspiration 📌📌📌

Claire Lopez on Instagram: "Shoulders …  If you have broad shoulders or are an inverted triangle shape then this one is for you.   Another topic that was requested after my styling stories sticker.   🔻 A lot of the things that were applicable for large busts also apply here so you need to consider sleeves, necklines, fabric and detail.   🔻 Fundamentally you don’t want to add any additional width to your shoulder line so that means paying attention to where seams sit, avoiding details that add width like puff sleeves and being careful of batwings, dropped shoulder etc   🔻 Necklines - similarly you want a neckline that slims the shoulders rather than one that adds width. V necks or other lower styles will do this whereas wide necklines such as slash, Bardot, off the shoulder will all add V Necks, Inverted Triangle Body Shape, Inverted Triangle Body, Triangle Body Shape, Inverted Triangle, Broad Shoulders, Paying Attention, Triangle Shape, Large Bust
