Fellow short girl, Chi Li explained on YouTube that you can make flat shoes work for you, even for more dressy events, as long as you follow her tips.

Avoid wide-leg trousers
Although wide-leg trousers look great with heels, wearing them with flats will only make you look shorter.
Chi explained: “You don’t have that lifted effect so the volume can look overwhelming.”
Stick to pointed toes
Chi said: “The best way for your legs to look lengthened in flats is to wear pointed toe shoes.
“You’ll immediately see a big difference and they’ll make your legs look so much longer even without heels.”
If you’re not a fan of pointed toe shoes, go for rounded toes instead, but no matter what avoid square toes.
