Fall is a magical time for women.
There's so much to enjoy! When the leaves signal me, I jump into action. Scarves? Check. Boots? Check. Pumpkin spice? Check! Being a short chick in fall has its downsides though. Here are some fall struggles that only short women will understand.
1. Your cute leggings bunch up at the bottom.
Leggings are so soft and comfy. Whether its the classic black or some crazy patterns, I'm all in! Sadly, however, even short sized ones bunch up around my ankles giving the fun illusion I have pug-like wrinkles on my ankles. Cute!
2. Long cardigans fit you like a cape.
Cardigans and layers are a girl's best friend! Shorties get to trip on the long ones that are just a little extra long.
3. You can't do fall photo-ops because you look extra small next to big pumpkins.
Fall photo-ops can be a blast, but as a petite woman, there is just always something a little off about a pumpkin being as tall as you are.
4. You will LITERALLY be lost in a corn maze for days.
Bring snacks and a tall friend so they can guide you out.
5. You get a nice view of the back of people's heads at football games.
Tailgates are a blast, but at least there is beer and food to enjoy while you gaze into the bald spot on the man seated in front of you.
6. You might as well forget apple picking.
Ask to borrow a fruit picker, but make sure you stretch beforehand.
7. Knee high boots are actually thigh high boots.
All I have to say about this one is thank God for ankle booties.
Give your short friends a break and maybe a boost, guys. Enjoy fall while it lasts!
