Bodytype: Tall & Thin

In this video blog, "Bodytype: Tall & Thin", Genealogy Boutique and Formals shares some tips with you on what to wear if you've got a tall, thin body frame.

Yesterday, Genealogy Boutique and Formals offered up a few tips to the petites on how to best flatter their shorter shape. Today's video blog is all about those of you who are blessed with a tall, thin body type. As you might have guessed, if you're tall and thin, you can pretty much get away with wearing anything. But that doesn't mean that you tall don't have a need for fashion advice, just like the petites.

First, let's talk about how to add a little shape to your stature - Layered, printed tops, in the same color family obviously, are one way to help to add a little fullness to your figure. These fashionable tops from Karlie and Fashion Spy are perfect for adding just enough curves for a more feminine look.

When the weather permits, jackets and long trenches with pockets add just the right amount of volume to your thinner frame. Chunky cardigan sweaters will help emphasize your curves and pair perfectly any outfit. Try these styles and more by Tulle! They offer a wide variety of outerwear with options for your unique taste.

Finding that perfect dress can sometimes be more difficult when you're super skinny. Look for flirty pleats and ruffles -- These create the illusion of effortless curves. These are two popular eveningwear options -- the multi-colored one by Evenings by Allure and the white one by La Femme - for those events when you need something a little bit more formal, like Prom, Homecoming, Military Balls, Cotillion, galas, or benefits. La Femme makes dresses that are longer than the average evening gown, so if you're having trouble finding a dress long enough, check out this designer!


If you're not much of a dress girl, a poufy, bright-colored skirt matched with a dark top is a great way to break up your torso. The look is trendy and can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion! I love the way a skirt balances out straighter figures!

When it comes to shoes, many tall girls wear ballet flats. Pair them with straight-legged jeans to show off your long legs and give you the illusion of a fuller booty!
