Tips And Tricks: Travel Size Retractable Tape Measures

…er Store (the smaller blue one), and am so excited to use it! Shopping for petite women often involves grabbing a hand full of items, dragging them to the fitting room, trying them all on, only to have none of them fit. Disappointing right? I’m betting this handy little device will help days like these. I want to use it to measure hard to fit areas like pant rises, that always give me trouble. Usually, I hold up an item of clothing, estimate the f…

Tunic Styling

…naturally swiping the long front hem to the side as I inspected the look in the mirror, and decided I actually really liked it that way. It reminds me of the way you’d layer a long scarf, letting the ends billow out from below your blazer or coat. — Details — Blazer Theory (old) (similar in petite) (similar) Tunic ASOS (old) (similar) (similar) Bustier Marissa Webb (this season’s version) Jeans Zara (old) Shoes Manolo Blahnik (similar) (similar)…

White Stripes

…y which I’m totally on board with. Also majorly appreciated, that good ol’ petite sizing cutting down on my tailoring bills. I also want to point out this silk camisole that I’ve been stalking. Initially, I fell in love with this one by fashion blogger Rumi Neely’s clothing line, Are You Am I. I think the straps are very clever, and I’m sure the fabric is delightful, but I couldn’t justify the price for a little cami. This one is a good dupe, but…

Third Layer Love

…ughout, reminds me a bit of Isabel Marant (French girl boho), and comes in petite sizing. As for these sweet ass heels…they’re still available at Yoox in a few sizes, and come in a great walkable lower heel.

Silk & Wool

…ew right now, with an extra 40% off with code NEWCLOTHES. I’m wearing size petite 00, which also happens to be the only size left at time of posting. It’s a really great traditional menswear piece in a nice felted wool and scrumptious shade of grey. The little details have me smitten, like the inside pockets, striped lining, and real working lapel button hole. These jeans are back this season, but in a higher rise and longer inseam, which is great…

No Show Socks For Ankle Booties

…be great for wearing with sneakers. Win, win! Back when I discovered these petite-friendly Rag & Bone Margot booties (which have treated me so well, I’ve bought them in two colors), I asked readers for their favorite no show socks and decided to try quite a few of them out. This post outlines the socks for ankle booties I personally found best, and still wear on constant rotation. Important bits: I wear a women’s US size 4.5 – 5 shoe, so the no sh…

Found: Dupes For My Favorite Lace Bralette Layering Piece
