Why Is Styling So Hard for Tall Women? | Tips to Elevate Your Style ft. Style Coach Christine Nelson

Today, we are joined by a special guest: Christine Nelson! Christine is a fellow tall woman whose mission is to help women dress with confidence. And as a tall girl herself, she is hoping to do that for the tall girl community too!

As a tall woman, styling can be challenging beyond just finding clothes that fit. Proportions play a huge role—tops that should hit at the waist may land too high, dresses might feel too short, and pants are often not long enough. Even when clothing is the right length, the way it drapes on a taller frame can be different from how it was designed to look. Oversized pieces can overwhelm, while certain cuts that flatter average heights may look unbalanced on our bodies.

Accessories, like belts and shoes, also impact the overall look differently, requiring more thought into how to create cohesion. And then there's the societal pressure—tall women are often told to "tone down" their height, leading some to avoid heels or statement pieces that draw attention. Styling as a tall woman isn’t just about putting together an outfit; it’s about navigating proportions, confidence, and the limited options available in mainstream fashion.

And our guest Christine is here to provide some expert advice about how tall women can dress to impress and feel good in their own skin through fashion! Tune in to the episode for more :)
