This is kind of brilliant, and also just very weird . . .

Women are now adding fake SECOND BELLY BUTTONS to their stomach to make their legs look longer.  (???)

It's become a thing in China.  You buy temporary tattoos that look like belly buttons . . . put one on your stomach a few inches above your actual belly button . . . and cover your real one with a high-waisted skirt or pants.

If you wear a crop-top or anything that shows your stomach, it creates an optical illusion.  Your waist looks higher, so your legs look longer.  (Here's a photo.)

Women in China are buying sheets of temporary belly-button tattoos, so they can reapply them once they wear off.  You can buy them here too.  Walmart's website has them.

Some women also think the temporary tattoos look cuter than their actual belly button.  So that's another reason they're popular.
