if you're like 155 cm - dun worry - i know a lot of gal friends around that height
i won't consider anyone below average height, unless if they're around 145 to 150 cm


but neways....you could wear shoes that are not too torturing kinda high heel shoes

try wearin shirts that has probably line designs that draws across - from one side to another - when worn on one's body

this would give the effect that you're not that thin

bottom wise - i have no suggestions - basically, pants would do good to cover up those thin areas

hope i've been of help

i'm sure the gals here have much more experience than me

what i'm sharing...is just through observation and through talkin' with gal friends i have

Thanks, but I am around 145 - 150 height cry.gif

god it's really difficult to find clothing for my size and height, especially in those foreign branded stores... hardly much store stock size 2, even if they got, the sleeve part will sometimes be like "OMG too big!".

well, they always say that you have to first know yourself to love urself.so know exactly which part of your body that u don't quite like,hide it and try to highlight the better parts.I have a friend who did an image consultancy and that's her mantra.Once, she helped me to dress up for my annual dinner using some of her image enhancement tips and i must say that it does make a lot of difference.

Perhaps you should wear tops with waist belts, this accentuates the waistline thus giving a better shape to the body. Also, consider tops with ruffles or detailing at the shoulders to give the illusion of broader shoulders.
You can also consider tops with slight gathers at the bust area to give the illusion of bigger shaplier bust. Avoid tops that has totally no allowances at the bust area. It will only press the chest flatter.

As for jeans, try to find low waisted ones that sits on the hip. This would give better curvature to the buttocks area.
Hope these helps.

Hi
Avoid V-cut blouse or anything similar if you have small bust. To draw attention away from them, wear off shoulder tops/ halters and tubes( not the tight lycra ones) because you can show your fair bony shoulder instead which I swear looks sexy.

definitely not jealous because I don't have the looks but, why must I restrict myself to wasting my youth wearing something I don't feel like myself in?

I'm pretty short as well. Around 152cm. I'm a little bit chubby but I think I'm bale to dress okay.

What I usually wear is a miniskirt and top. Maybe a halter neck or baby tee. And of course with 3-4 inch heels. That will definitely make you look and feel taller.

There's always push up bras to help. Not heavily padded ones but enough to create the sillhoutte of a cleavage. As for the butt, try to look for uplift jeans. But its kinda hard to look for that in Malaysia

I have a fren thinner and slim like you until she have to buy children clothes to wear but its your confidence that makes a difference.

She dress well or maybe wear sexy skirt or maybe do a nicer hair style. Try to lure the attention to something else then keep concentrate on the negative side.

Its your choice to choose whether do you want to stand on the positive side or negative. Dont bother going for image consultant its a waste of money. The problem is not everyone else the problem is your mind. The problem is you are in a protective mode. If you think your friends are commenting you or pulling down your confidence i suggest replace them.

i have this kind of problem 2 (im 151cm n 40kg,underweight..i noe..cry.gif) i m a very confidence person,,but i always wna have a plumpier body..its sexier..but,,i got my butt to save me..my upper part is so~ skinny..especially my shoulder n bust..huh..
my advise is do wear tops with ruffles or more details on ur shoulder n bust area..smocking will do great 2enhance ur bust.
n try short skirt n short pants as it'll make ur legs look longer.. also wear wedges n heels..
AVOID long dress..hehe (cos i look funny wif long dress)
