I am 5'2" and DO NOT WEAR FLAT SHOES. I have a broken foot and a formal wedding to attend next weekend...any suggestions on flattering formal wear with flats??


Sorry to hear about your foot. I had the same problem, a broken ankle last year. You want to draw attention upward to your head area away from your feet. A long dress might be awkward with a boot or whatever you are wearing on your foot. A top (or dress) with some decoration like beading, draping, etc. on top will bring attention upward.  If you wear a top pair it with a flattering skirt style. The same color top and skirt will make you look taller. If you wear a simple style cocktail dress you can wear statement jewelry to draw attention upward. Have a great time.
