Hi girls,

I'm still a little confused about the long versus short waist issue and what looks best. If I do the 2-hand test, I can fit 2 hands minus 1 pinky between my bust and waist (but I do have small hands). If I let my arms hang, my elbows are at the level of my waist. I think this means that I am about "average waisted," perhaps slightly short?

I've also figured out, to my surprise, that my legs are "average length" for my overall height since the measurement from hip to foot is about half of my height (I thought that I was short-legged, but I guess for 5'1'', they are average).

I think that belting at my natural waist is definitely most flattering, but which styles, skinny or wide, high or low contrast are best?

Also, is tucking flattering? and where should the waistline be ideally?

I appreciate any suggestions!!
