Tuck in your shirt if you want to pull off this look, but don\u2019t pull the top out too much because this adds volume to your waist. Also, do not tuck in too much or else you will look stiff and uncomfortable.<\/li>\n<li>Belts are a great addition to this look. Pick a skinny belt to draw attention to your high-waisted style, or to emphasize your upper body and cinch your waist, a wide belt is perfect!<\/li>\n<li>Heels heels heels!
