  • For a casual outing with friends go for plain jeans or chinos which you can match perfectly with a t shirt and a jacket, you can also alternate between wearing a casual button down folded all the way up to the arm on chinos and a matching suede shoes or a simple track joggers closely fit to show the appeal of your long legs.
  • To switch things up, try a casual blazer, denim jacket or a hoodie; this brings attention to your upper body and accentuates your height. Accessories should be the least of your concerns but if you must, opt for simple accessories, go for large bulky wrist watches because of the large wrists that come with your body type.
  • Try to avoid vertical stripes like a plague; it gives an uncanny taller look, like a giraffe. If you have long legs, avoid shorts that reveal your long knees, it just gives an impression of a palm tree swaying to the rhythm of the wind.
