    I am 4’11 and I do not feel insecure about my height. I like being petite. My problem is others in my life want me to view it as a flaw and love to bring it up in a negative way. I cannot control how others view it .

      I'm a little more than 4'11 and skinny. People used to think I'm younger than my real age.
      Sometimes, I just think it's good if I'm taller (to reach the top shell in the market lol), but never feel insecure about my height.
      The bigger problem is it's hard to find my size in clothes and in shoes
      Many people to tell me to buy them in children section. But the girls jeans sometimes have flowers or butterflies on the back pockets and of course I can't wear them lol

My hubby once had me rolling when I was ready to take on something particularly challenging,and he reminded me that “you’re not as big as you think you are” 😂. I guess I may have been channeling my inner chihuahua. I’ve had my moments of wishing I were taller, but I try to just climb up those shelves and reach the top to move past what I’m frustrated with. Thank you for your wonderful videos!!

    Congratulations on the style course! I'm sure it's going to be extremely helpful. It's sad to hear about Your past pain, But you're an overcomer. It's a joy to see your self confidence and using what you've learned to help others. My daughter is 5'1". She has insecurity about her height and petite appearance. It doesn't help that she's gotten bullied for being short. Ironically she was in a huge drama, and I volunteered in the costuming. There were 18 ladies, Divided into 2 groups of 7 that were 5'3 and under and 11 that were 5'4 and n up. The 5'4 group was considered tall. My daughter was not the shortest, there were 3 others shorter than her. All that to say being petite is not uncommon, and it's not a flaw. Everyone needed tailoring of their costumes, and every actress was valuable. Self-acceptance is a gift.

    We are each beautiful. Men love us just as we are. Naturally beautiful. No matter what color, height, weight.
    We are too hard on ourselves.
    I can understand wanting to look our best. Fashion, a good haircut, a little makeup can do wonders to enhance what we have.
    I was insecure for most of my young years. I obssessed daily about what to eat. It was insane. I am 5ft!
    One day i just said, enough already! I am plus size now, but i am healthy and happy. And that too is sexy! Its all about confidence and loving yourself.

    Thank you for sharing this video. I'm 4'11 and can't remember feeling bad about my height. In contrast to those being very tall, I have no problem fitting in cars, using public transport, being in stalactite caves without hurting my head, finding clothes that I like. Okay, I have problems reaching the higher places in super markets, but this often leads to nice interactions in supermarkets. I'm also being seen as younger, which isn't a bad thing in my age (and was exploited by me as a teenager on fairs). My brother on the other hand has a very hard time to be a man who's way shorter than average and shorter than many women are. He feels like he's instantly rejected or friend zoned by most women, now when he's trying to date again. So it was interesting for me to see this video and realize that being petite can be a big problem for women, too.

    Chi, you are very beautiful, and fwiw you are 2-3 inches taller than me so have confidence about your height. In Japan, cute and short women are viewed favorably (by men, but also by other women) so I always felt a bit smug and superior about being very petite even though it's an obvious disadvantage in the West. It might be a matter of perspective, if you grow up with small = beautiful in your own right, you're OK! Congrats on your new masterclass.

Our identity is not in our height or size or shape. We all can find clothes that can make us look good. I am 162cm but I always hope for a smaller waist as I am apple shape. Maybe I may opt for liposuction one day 😂…no money for now. Using exercise to help me shed some pounds 😁

    As I like to say, on a good day with low gravity and an updraft, I am 5 feet tall. When I started teaching high school at 25 years old, I was also very young looking. My first day on the job, a senior teacher told me to get out of the photocopy room because “students weren’t allowed” in there. My second year of teaching, I had a student’s mom on parent-teacher night follow me down the hallway proclaiming, “you can’t be a teacher…you’re just to CUTE…you’re just too CUTE!” I got carded at the liquor store until way after I became a mom at 34 (the legal age where I am is 19)…I have learned something over the course of my life. I’m sitting here at 52 years of age and I know I look like I’m in my 30s. I’m short and I look waaaay younger than I am and I have learned to embrace that crap. I don’t watch your channel to try to “hide” the fact I’m short: I’m here to figure out some fashion choices that will be flattering on my body. I don’t care if platform shoes make me look like I’m trying too hard (being born in the 1970s, platforms are in my soul!) or low cut jeans make my legs look shorter cause they ARE shorter! lol. And that’s ok. Ladies: embrace the shortness. You can’t really change it. Might as well not fight it. Figure out what makes you look good first. If the shortness really *really* bothers you, worry about that last. In my opinion, guys dig a short chick.

    Try 4'10 1/2! Lol, well I do love your very informative videos watch all the time and appreciate effort in figuring out certain clothes and styles! I also wondered if there was a bone growth surgery or medication I could take but can't take after puberty. I'm good with myself and always have been. I try to eat hardly any carbs including no sugar and that's how I've stayed in pretty good shape. I feel best at hardly any carbs and just carnivore pretty much!
