Petite Style Tips From Our Cute Online Boutique

Let’s talk about petite fashion. Petite gals often struggle to find the right fit. But never fear! We’ve applied our favorite petite style tips to create flattering outfits you’ll love. Use our tips to get inspired, then check out everything our cute online boutique has to offer!

Tip #1: Wear The Same Color From Head to Toe

Our first petite fashion tip is to choose monochrome looks. Wearing the same color from head to toe elongates the body instead of breaking it up with different colors and patterns. Monochrome is also very chic, so we consider it a win-win situation! 

We chose the Trina V-Neck Jumpsuit to demonstrate. This beige, fitted jumpsuit will accentuate your figure. The straight leg pant style is also very flattering for petite women. We styled this jumpsuit with the Matisse Lanai Sandal Heel to further lengthen the legs. You can never have too many accessories, which is why we finished the look with our Shannon Leopard Headband. This petite fashion hack can work for any occasion. Wear this outfit to work, weddings, and more!

Tip #2: Pair a Crop Top with High Waisted Bottoms

Cropped styles visually extended the waist. When it’s too cold for a crop top, try a cropped jacket instead. It’s easy to wear this kind of top, especially when paired with high waisted bottoms. High waisted bottoms elongate the bottom half of the body, so choose them for a leggy look!

We picked the Nicole Shirred Crop Top and matched it with our Sasha Distressed High Rise Skinny Jeans. This floral crop top is sweet and feminine. Pairing it with high waisted jeans keeps the look modest but flirty. Lastly, we chose the Seychelles Vendor Leather Mule Wedges. Wedge shoes are great for adding height. These mules look wonderful with dresses as well! If they’re close to your skin tone, they give the illusion of longer legs. Every piece of this outfit is flattering for petite women, so wear them all together to create a look you’ll love! 

Tip #3: Go For A Square Neck Top

Square neck tops were practically made for petite gals! This cut shows off the neck and chest, effectively lengthening the torso. Square neck tops are a classy, timeless style that pair well with other petite friendly favorites.

The Mariana Square Neck Crop Top combines the square neckline with the cropped cut we discussed previously. We chose high waisted jeans last time, so this time let’s try a high waisted maxi skirt! The Amelia Full Maxi Skirt even comes in petite sizes. You may want to size down so that you can wear this skirt around your waist instead of your hips. Accessorize with the Gwen Floral Resin Earrings for a hint of glimmer. This ensemble is appropriate for special occasions like engagement photos, weddings—you name it!
