How to Make Your Legs Look Longer

How to Make Your Legs Look Longer

Every girl dreams of having long legs, endless pins that are graceful and shapely but let’s be honest, not many of us are 6 foot Amazonian princesses and only a handful of us will ever be suited to catwalk modelling!  With that in mind, clever wardrobe tricks could give you the illusion of model-looking legs so you rock that mini skirt and look like your legs go on for miles.  Read Satin Boutique’s tips for how to make your legs look longer and get your legs out for everyone to admire!

  • Wear Ankle Boots

Contrary to popular belief, a pair of shallow ankle boots will make your legs appear longer.  Don’t wear ankle boots that cut you off at the ankle but if they’re cut away, rather like a shoe boot then your legs will suddenly look like they’ve grown an inch!  We recommend a pair of these Ellie Shoes “Marcie” which are a combination of boot and shoe and for even more added height; they feature a 6” heel along with a deep platform.  You’ll look like that catwalk model we mentioned earlier! https://satin-boutique.com/collections/boots/products/ellie-shoes-e-609-marcie-6-bootie-on-platform-w-peep-toe

  • Choose High-Cut Swimwear

Avoid bikini style bottoms and low-cut panties.  The higher the cut, the longer the leg appears.  A well-cut, high-leg swimsuit immediately elongates the leg so you can strut your stuff around the swimming pool while looking graceful and stylish all at the same time.  We recommend this Monokini Swimsuit with one shoulder and a cut-away front; it comes in three fabulous shades, khaki, black and yellow: https://satin-boutique.com/collections/swim-suits/products/womens-sexy-one-shoulder-one-piece-monokini-swim-suit-large-cut-out-front

  • Choose High-Leg Panties

As above, if you want your legs to look longer in the bedroom, choose your underwear carefully.  Bikini styles cut your legs so they look shorter so pick out some pretty high-legs and elongate your legs instantly.  Here’s one of our favourites, the Adore Panty and Structured Bra Set: https://satin-boutique.com/collections/bras-panties-garterbelts/products/adore-a1056-freya-love-story-structured-bra-and-panty

  • Wear a High-Waisted Mini Skirt

This makes you look like your waist begins higher so your legs automatically look longer than they are.  Paired with towering heels, you’ll look like a long-legged gal in moments!  This Elegant Moments Leather Pencil Skirt is ideal for stretching out those limbs and giving the illusion of a higher waist, shop it here: https://satin-boutique.com/products/elegant-moments-em-l6102x-leather-pencil-mini-skirt-with-back-zipper-plus-sizes?_pos=30&_sid=b08648d36&_ss=r

  • Keep Your Hems Fuss-Free!

Don’t draw attention to the bottom of your jeans; keep them clean and fuss-free.  If you really want to create that long-leg illusion, wear very long pants or jeans, bootlegs are great as they slim you down and when they’re to the ground they make you look like you have endless legs.

  • Try a Cropped Top

A short top makes your torso appear longer so try a couple of cropped blouses or T shirts. Alternatively, tuck a longer top into your pants or jeans, this gives the same illusion.  Our black or white cropped tops are perfect for this look, in fact, they’re so gorgeous – buy both!  Shop them here: https://satin-boutique.com/products/cropped-tank-top?_pos=5&_sid=04919ce8d&_ss=r
