Yeah... I always feel like stores don't make dresses for short people! Even Laura PETITE dresses make me look short and stubby. I'm around 5'0" and 95 - 100 lbs, 23 in Guess jeans, 24 in normal jeans. I'd say I'm an average size for my height but dresses (that look SO cute on the mannequins) look horrible on me.

If I go dress shopping, I usually look for something that's above my knee and that has a high waistline. I think a higher waistline makes my legs look like they start higher... not sure how else to explain it. Also, I look for dresses that don't stick to my body at the legs part (those make my legs look even fatter). Heels are great too :)
