Long and skinny legs. It seems that some girls dream about them in their dreams. But is everything so simple? What kind of legs can we consider really ideal?

1. Leg length

The correct leg length depends entirely on your height. This is logical, because a girl of 155 centimeters cannot have legs of 110 centimeters (that would look terrible). Everything should be proportional.

The ideal length is half the height plus a few centimeters. Much depends on whether your bone is wide or thin:

• broad bone: legs 2-4 centimeters longer than half the height (51-53% of the height);
• normal bone: the length of the legs is equal to half the height and another 4-6 centimeters from above (52-54% of the height);
• thin bone: legs should be equal to half the height and another 6-9 centimeters (53-55% of the height).

Remember that leg length is measured from the top of the thighbone to the floor.

2. Rule of four gaps

The legs cannot be completely straight, and this is normal. They should have a certain beautiful curve. To understand how your legs correspond to ideal parameters, stand straight in front of the mirror and connect your legs together.

The legs of the correct form form four gaps: between the feet and ankles, under the knees, between the knees and thighs, between the groin and thighs. The last window (above the knee at the bottom of the thigh) should be the narrowest.

3. Hip width

Girls are most often worried about the volume of the hips. Of course, hip coverage is an important parameter for ideal legs. So, with a height of 161–165 centimeters, the correct hip circumference is 53–54 centimeters; with a height of 166–170, the thigh circumference is 55–57 centimeters; with a height of 171-175, the hip circumference should be 57-58 centimeters (be careful: the circumference of one hip, and not the coverage of two hips).

We want to note that 55 centimeters in girth is not so small, which means that thin and beautiful legs are not always the same thing.

4. Beautiful calves

The calves are an equally important part of the legs. Here you need to determine the golden mean for yourself: too inflated caviar is bad, but flabby, jelly is even worse. Rounded and elastic calves do not violate the general outline of the leg and do not catch the eye.

5. Attractive knees

The knees can be both a decoration of the legs and their main problem. Good knees are small, rounded, neat, without protrusions on the sides. The knee should be equidistant from the top and bottom of the leg, midway between the top of the thigh and the foot.

Pay attention to the circumference of the leg under the knee: it should be equal to the circumference of the ankle or be slightly larger.

Unfortunately, knees give away a woman's age. It is not for nothing that Hollywood stars begin to do plastic surgery on their knees in order to return them to their correct shape.

6. Graceful ankles

A beautiful ankle should be thin (but not skinny), graceful and embossed. By the way, the shape of the Achilles tendon is also important (located where the heel passes into the lower leg): ideally, it has a small thickness and the right grooves on both sides.

7. A little more about the hips

We figured out the girth of the hips, but what about their shape? It is believed that the ideal thigh is like a spindle: it is slightly narrowed at the top and bottom, and slightly expanded in the middle part. If you mentally divide the thigh into three equal parts, then the widest part should be in the upper third.

In order for the hips to be elastic, toned and appetizing, it is necessary to constantly engage in sports and maintain their beautiful shape.

8. Smooth feet, pink heels, neat toes

The ideal leg has a concave, elongated and thin foot. The toes are not twisted by poor quality shoes and lie freely, one next to the other. Heel - rounded and slightly protruding from under the Achilles tendon.

Of course, fingers and heels should be well-groomed and tidy: we should not forget about pedicure, soothing baths and moisturizer.

9. Healthy feet

Beautiful legs are first of all healthy legs. Vascular stars, blue-violet mesh will spoil the appearance of even the most slender legs. A sedentary lifestyle, a sitting position for seven to eight hours, high heels, lack of physical activity - all this can lead to varicose veins. The disease is serious, often treated only with laser therapy or surgery.

Therefore, keep an eye on the health of your legs from youth. Walk, play sports, take contrast showers, give your feet a rest from heels, drink more water and visit a phlebologist.

In the early summer of 2013, before beach season, Venus & Braun polled 1,000 women aged 18 to 40, who were asked to answer two questions: "Which part of your body causes you the most anxiety?" and "Which body part would you like the most to compliment?" As it turned out, the most difficult thing is to maintain the beauty of the abdomen, secondly - the beauty of the legs, then in descending order are such parts of the body as the buttocks, arms, thighs and others. However, interestingly, a compliment to the legs is the most pleasant for the majority of respondents.

The Kong sisters are twins from China, the length of their legs is truly amazing. Even without shoes, they seem very long, and in high-heeled shoes, they simply never end. Severe critics might chime in on the shape of the knee, but the photo below of one of the Kong sisters shows these really dainty legs at their best.

But do not forget that photography works wonders. An advantageous angle will make almost any beauty. In reality, only a few out of a huge number of women really have a good reason to say: "I don't have the most beautiful legs." The rest are just too self-critical or lazy. If a woman maintains an excellent physical shape, knows how to emphasize the dignity of her figure, monitors the condition of her skin, she can be proud of the beauty of her legs.

Every woman dreams of slender and beautiful legs. Why? Of course, to wear short skirts and seduce men. So that they immediately organize a wedding or the most breathtaking shopping for them. True, even the most sophisticated connoisseurs of female beauty cannot determine the clear parameters of the harmony and beauty of female legs.

All attempts to conduct surveys among men have shown that the strong half of humanity puts the length of the legs in the first place. But are long legs always beautiful? What if they are crooked or fat or too thin? Perhaps, for slender legs, one length will not be enough, their proportionality and shape are more important.

Consider some national features of the legs. African women have longer legs, longer hips, tapering at the top, a small knee, long calves, and slender ankles. The beauties living on the Mediterranean coast have shorter legs, small feet and pronounced muscles. The women of the East have short legs and the ankle is not so graceful.

It turns out that the length of the legs affects the character of a woman. As pundits have established, a woman with long legs is romantic and dreamy, it is difficult for her to cope with the routine, but she has strict principles. A woman with short legs easily solves current affairs, but her mood also changes easily, and it turns out to be easy to convince her.

The length is long, but gait plays an important role. It turns out to be socks, ladies go inside who find it difficult to establish contact with other people. A “flying” gait is possessed exclusively by lovers. Dr. Garre argued that if a man wants to find his soul mate, he should pay attention to how the heels of his beloved shoe are worn down. The ideal wife and mother tramples the heel evenly. If the heel is worn inward, then a man has a long way to establish contact and discover the deep inner world of his companion, but if a man is looking for a strong, enterprising woman, he should look for heels with a worn outer edge.

The numerical coefficient of the length of ideal female legs is 1.4 of the length of the body. The closer your proportions are to this ratio, the better, of course. Tall women are more likely to have long legs (meaning the relative length of the legs to height in general). But there is also such a drawback - short legs with high growth. This looks bad. Short legs in short women are less conspicuous and spoil the impression. But, in fact, length is not the most important criterion for evaluating legs ....

…There is nothing more important than form! We know exactly how ideally shaped legs should look. Take a pose: legs are fully extended, heels together, socks apart. Four gaps form between perfectly even legs: the crotch, above the knees, under the knees, above the ankles. This picture shows type “a” legs, perfectly aligned:

It should be noted that this form is possible only if there is some fat layer. For too thin women, it is unrealistic. But even with too full legs, the gaps are not visible (especially the upper two), which is also not considered beautiful.

"b" - O-shaped curvature (knee non-closure)
"c" - X-shaped curvature (non-closure of the ankles)
"g" - false curvature (non-closure of soft tissues of the upper third of the lower leg)

The closer the shape of your legs to the ideal, the better.

The hairline of the skin of the legs is often more pronounced than that of the body as a whole. This is especially true for the legs. If the hair is visible to the naked eye, it should be removed.

The ankles are ideally graceful. Looks nice thin, but not skinny. Thick ones make the whole leg heavier.

A beautiful rise is also important (the place where the foot passes into the lower leg). When this transition in the front is sloping and smooth, they speak of a high rise. Visually, a high rise is better than a low one.

Don't ignore your feet either. The smaller they are, the better. But long legs with small feet are very rare. Foot size usually depends on height. Tall women have more than short ones. Long feet spoil the impression when looking at a girl in profile. Regarding the width of the foot - the narrower the better. The shape is preferably pointed towards the index finger. Rectangular feet look ugly.

There is also such a defect as flat feet. It has a negative effect on walking. The flatfoot test is easy to do. Enough to get the imprint of your foot. Feel the difference:

Toes are evaluated according to the usual "finger" canons - the longer and thinner, the better. Their straightness and correct form are also valued.

Toenails require special attention and care. Only high-quality pedicure allows them to look neat. Incorrect trimming can lead to ingrown nails, which is not pretty.

It is not in vain that stories are written about women's legs - They are in character - the same as mistresses:

There is no reason for a quarrel between girlfriends,

But if they diverge, it is only because of a man! ..

The question is as simple as three pennies and at the same time it is complicated:

How long should the skirt be? After all, this is the whole point of it!

A hundred years ago they wore skirts longer than to the very heels,

And after all, no one was indignant at such a bizarre outfit ...

At that time, if the gentlemen see the ankles of the ladies,

They were obliged to marry, otherwise they threatened general shame ...

But life did not stand still, and progress marched along with it.

And the length of the skirt has changed from - below the heels to - heaven!

When midi was born, men were shocked!

But still, the gentlemen asked to cut off at least another inch!

And now we see the knees ... What a beauty!

And the men looked at them, afraid to blink, wide-eyed...

But can you stop women? The world is walking in miniskirts!

How hard it is for men to look at this feast of women's legs!

When under the mini, the legs are a miracle, because you can’t take your eyes off them ...

And here you don’t want to drink or eat, but you want to possess them ...

Kozma Prutkov taught: "Look at the root!" We men agree...

And now we dream about the roots of the legs and want to look at them ...

And the women here are great! They go to any lengths for men...

They came up with thong clothes - there is only one seam from the skirt ...

Now any man sees where the ladies' legs grow from ...

For example, this is how they go to the beaches ... It's a pity they don't give it at work ...

Why does fashion “beep” so strangely and call to the primitive system?

Well, the ladies will remove the seam from the skirt ... How can they seduce the groom?

It seems that only the places that God gave for sin remain ...

The question is as simple as three pennies and the trend is clear to everyone ...

How long can a skirt be made without losing face?
