While Missy has definitely been gaining weight, I think it's the dress more than anything. The "short" hair looks nice and the headband looks nice, but flapper dresses were designed with the ideal body at the time in mind. The trendy body back in the 20's was no hips, no boobs, no weight really. Just a body that went straight down without a curve. The shapeless, swishy flapper dresses were perfect for that. If it were an 1800's or 1950's murder mystery, Missy would look better. But a flapper dress just is not flattering for her (and I promise I'm not being a jerk, I'm just being accurate. a flapper dress wouldn't work on me either so I'm not just trying to hurt Missy).
I think you're right. Missy has a hard time pulling off sleeveless stuff, too. She seems to gain weight easily in her upper arms (me too
), and even when she was smaller, her arms were never particularly tiny.
And someone mentioned she should cut her hair...YES! Short women have a much harder time pulling off long hair (another thing I know all too well
). It just makes her look short and stubby. Plus, it's so dried out and damaged. Short-to-medium hair would be so cute on her! I know I say this every single time this topic comes up, but she just needs to find some flattering clothes and a flattering hairstyle. She's not bad looking and her body is fine as long as she's happy with it. But she just tries to pull things off that aren't going to happen on a 5'2" women who has gained some weight after kids.
