The only thing to consider with this dress is if it fits your personality. Does it flatter your body shape, your figure, what you want people to think about you.

Nobody is TOO short. Too short for what?

You can be too short to reach a shelf, too short to be allowed on a roller coaster, too short for a pair of jeans to fit right--but too short to be beautiful? Never.

Thing is, you're only comfortable if you address what bothers you. clearly this bothers Tulip or she wouldn't have mentioned it. We all have our achilles heels about how we look -things logically we shouldn't worry about but we do. personally, my belly is my concern. I see people with much lumpier figures in much tighter clothes not giving a stuff about how their lumps look and I know i shouldn't either, but I do......

so too short for her comfort level? We all know she's gorgeous.
