Did you know 1 in 2 women are considered petite? That's 50% of us (me included!). Half of us - are 5'4 or shorter. Read below for some interesting facts on petite fashion & some tips for dressing your petite body!


A few tips of my own for dressing your petite body:

1. Wear high waists. Whether it be jeans, pants or a skirt, opt for bottoms with a high waist to elongate your legs. 
2. Add heels. Another great way to fake the illusion of longer legs, heels! Try a chunky heel for a more comfortable option.
3. Invest in a great tailor. Whether you are petite or not, there's nothing like a perfect fit. A tailor is especially important for petites so you always have the perfect proportions.
4. Shop petite clothing. Opt for stores that have petite sizing to avoid having to get things altered. Try J Crew, LOFT, Ann Taylor, Topshop or White House, Black Market.
