INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you don't mind the flare style, look for jeans with a flare around the leg rather than straight-leg varieties. This draws attention to your bottom half, making your legs look longer. Make sure that the flare jeans do not drag on the floor as this can make you look shorter rather than taller. If you like to wear dresses, consider dresses that cinch at the waist just above the hips. This makes your body look well-proportioned, lengthening your frame overall. Avoid dresses that are long and loose as this can make you look like you're drowning in them, drawing attention to your height. For example, go for a dress with a pencil line skirt that cinches at the waist. Take a pass on the baggy maxi dress. A higher waist helps make your legs look longer, stretching out your figure overall. When selecting pants or skirts, look for ones that are meant to be buttoned and zipped at the waist. Bottoms that fall at the hips are much less likely to lengthen your frame. If you are having trouble finding high-waisted garments, look for vintage styles. Many of them tend to have higher waists. If you find your pants sag near the crotch, either have them tailored or find another pair. Saggy pants in general are unfashionable and can be especially un-flattering if you're on the shorter side. If your pants look like they're sagging, this will make you look shorter overall. If you can't get new pants, pull them up so that they don't sag, and wear a belt to keep them up. This is a must if you're trying to look tall, as saggy legs draw attention to your shorter frame. If you really struggle to find a pair, you can always have a pair tailored or cuff the legs yourself.

SUMMARY: Opt for flared jeans. Go for high-wasted, form-fitting dresses. Pick high-waisted pants or skirts. Make sure the crotch doesn't drop. Keep the legs of pants at your ankles.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Moisture can make your silver tarnish more quickly than normal. When not in use, store your silver with desiccating packets filled with silica gel. These can usually be purchased at craft stores, general retailers, and hardware stores. If you have small children or pets, be sure these packets are inaccessible to them. Eating these packets could be deadly. Alternatively, store a piece of chalk with your silver. Similar to the desiccating packets, the chalk will absorb moisture. Chalk will also be less dangerous to children and pets. Anything that contains lemon juice or vinegar will likely cause your silver to tarnish very quickly. Forego using your silver when serving any acidic food. Mustard, onions, and eggs are some of the most common foods that contribute to rapid oxidation. Food that has a sour taste often has acidic properties. When in doubt, use non-silver items with food like this. In some cases, perspiration may be acidic enough to cause oxidation. Other possible culprits include perfume, makeup, hair products, and cleaning products. Rubber and latex will have a strong negative reaction to silver. They can permanently deface its finish or cause the metal to be eaten away. Avoid storing your silver with other metals. Doing so can also make the silver oxidize more quickly. The detergent and heat of your dishwasher can cause oxidation and corrosion in your silver. Silver should be cleaned with cool water and a mild soap. Use a soft cotton cloth to wipe dirty silver clean when necessary. Opposite of what you might expect, using your silver and cleaning it thoroughly by hand after every use can defend against oxidation. Even using your silver once a week could keep it looking oxidation free for longer.

SUMMARY: Defend silver from moisture with desiccating packets. Avoid exposing silver to acidic substances. Store your silver away from rubber, latex and other metals. Hand wash your silver. Use silver more frequently.

Take advantage of tax deductions and credits.
