Out and about in Paris❤️ The temperature ranged about 3 seasons while I was there last week. Layering is key for this transitional weather. Linking my favorite light layers here✅

Guys, here’s a simple Christmas or holiday party outfit using oieces you can wear all year long. My linen blend skirt is a closet staple imho. And this rosette top with strong shoulders is obviously a little extra but can easily be toned down if you wear it with jeans or pair with black pants for a monochrome look that you can even wear in the office.

This week you’ll see all my outfits from my Paris trip. I only took carry-on luggage so I packed lots of neutrals that could be mixed and matched. And of course, comfortable lifestyle sneakers for all the walking. #ltkparis #parisstyle

Spring is finally starting to show its face! Linking a few Spring/Summer dresses that will be perfect for Easter, Spring Break or everyday. #springdressesforpetites

After yesterday’s blizzard, I think speak for everybody in Boston in saying that we are ready for Spring. Spring break is only a few weeks away so it’s time to get that vacay wardrobe ready. A lot of cute dresses are already selling out of sizes so don’t wait too long to shop🌳

I can’t wait to ditch the sweaters and switch to short sleeves. I found this adorable tee in new arrivals and love it. It has just that little touch of the right colors to get into a Spring frame of mind.

A quick colorful petite-friendly outfit idea for Valentine’s Day! Are you team pink or red (or neither) on Valentine’s? I bought this skirt in November and wore it over the holidays. But the nice thing about a red skirt is you can really wear it all year round.

Mixing prints for the winter because this season needs something extra❄️❄️ What do you think of this combo? There’s so much you can do with a plaid midi/maxi plus a printed knit. Let’s go!

Work style for petite pear figures🍐 This neutral knit is still in stock and works with everything. The belt is on massive sale and really good quality (highly recommend!). And you might already be familiar with the pants since I’ve been wearing them a lot lately. Each piece is under $50 but they look expensive.

Work style capsule for petite pears! The whole capsule is 2 tops and 2 bottoms. This skirt comes in several work friendly colors and is perfect for small waists with bigger hips. It does such a great job smoothing over those hip dips👍🏽The fabric weight is excellent for cooler weather and it’s made well. Tell me what you think, and please subscribe to get new links as soon as I post them. Thanks for following!

Recreating Bhavitha Mandava’s Chanel opening look for curvy petites on a budget! I’m wearing size 25 short, which works with both flats and heels but looks better with flats in my opinion, but you might prefer heels depending on how they hit you around the ankles. The quarter zip is really soft and TTS for a relaxed fit - wearing XS in the oatmeal colorway. #indianpetite #chanellookforless #quarterzip

We’re almost to the holidays! Here’s another curvy petite friendly outfit for holiday events. This is such an easy and comfortable outfit formula that works for work or family occasions. #curvypetite #petiteholidayoutfits

It’s time for Fall jackets in Boston now🍁🍁 A cropped silhouette works so well with the season’s satin midi skirts. #falljackets #ltkseasonal #plaidjackets #petitestyle

Simple basics

#LTKOver40 #LTKPetite

A wrinkle-free fool proof, classic, Summer to Fall outfit that works pretty much anywhere in the world. The skirt is on sale but sold out in most sizes. I linked a similar style for you guys (in chiffon) which is identical other than the material and colorways. These are perfect for Fall, so stock up while sizes are still around. For reference, I’m wearing XS.

Here’s my review of the new viral Gap Easy jeans. So for starters, are these comfy? 100% yes! They’re super soft with baggy legs and a great weight for warmer weather. They also have an interior waist feature (that you can see at the end of the video) that makes the waist adjustable.

They have all the features you would generally look for if waist gapping in denim is usually an issue for you..as it is for me. BUT, there are also some fit and finish imperfections for me: 1. For one, they seem very prone to wrinkles - maybe because the material is on the thinner side.
2. Second, despite having the inner tie, I still couldn’t make them fit small enough for my waist..they slide down a bit and will be more of a lower rise Jean on me. Though, this is only an issue if you have a long torso like me.

If you’d like more details, head to the Petite Style Studio page on Facebook where I’ve included more info on the fit and sizing…there are some nuances around petite versus regular sizing for example.

Bottom line is, though they fall a little short for my particular body type, I’d recommend these to most women. Definitely worth a try for the comfort factor!

For my spring trip to Italy, the thing I was most grateful I had packed were my waterproof boots. The Waterproof/water resistance is really important because even when it’s stopped raining, the cobblestones trap water for some time after. I recommend any neutral color, though I’m personally partial to white/beige boots. I thought they would get dirty a couple of days in, but they held up really well and still look new half a year later.

I’m linking the pair I bought, along with other options if you want a slightly higher heel. I had NO break-in time with this pair and although I walked 25K steps daily, my feet honestly didn’t hurt. Check them out!

Petite jeans that work for my bottom heavy shape ❤️ These are mid-weight and I like that they have some structure to them✅ For reference, I’m 5’1” and am wearing a 25P. These are now 20% off with code EXTRA20 (if you spend more than $125). To help you take advantage of this promo, linked a few things that work well together for some easy casual spring looks. #petitejeans

Long sleeved print midi dress for this in-between weather where we’re dreaming of summer but it
still feels like winter

Just got these pants. Tags are still on but had to share. They’re so good! Super soft and perfect wide leg. Perfect for curvy figures! And I didn’t have to alter these, so that’s a win🥂

Hi everyone! Winter isn’t my favorite season but I do love coats, particularly long coats that play well with dresses, and look pulled together. This brown coat pairs well with everything and several people have asked me where I got it. The shoulders are strong but I don’t find them overwhelming even on my petite frame and the quality is really nice, especially when you consider the very affordable. (under $100) price point. It also washes and dries like a dream, which is a major bonus for me👍🏽

Love these ivory boots with black accent to add a chic look to any outfit! I linked a few of my favorite options, with several on sale for the holidays!

A chic Fall outfit with a lot of whimsy, thanks to this gorgeous skirt. Its waist defining, figure flattering and the soft blush shade makes it super easy to style. Get it while it’s around💕

The most spectacular Opera house I’ve ever seen. You feel like you’re in Versailles. There’s gold everywhere and the auditorium is an absolute work of art. I wanted to wear something simple that would fit in at multiple Paris venues and the best part is that these pieces really can be worn anywhere. Jacket under $40!

#LTKTravel #LTKStyleTip #LTKFindsUnder50

I packed just a few special dresses on my petite voyage to France! I’ve had this one for years and I’ve linked several other classic maxi dressed that will stand the test of time and be worn year after year.

New summer accessories and a classic summer outfit formula: tee shirt + midi skirt + sun hat👌🏾

Wedding guest dress or Vacation dress? This dress does double duty for the summer with its vibrant island-ready print. It has side ties so you can cinch the waist from the side, or the back like I did here. And it’s 100% cotton, so fully breathable in hot weather. See my petite-friendly picks from the line below!

Another gorgeous summer maxi dress that can work for a variety of occasions, including wedding guest at a day wedding (would be beautiful in an outdoor setting!). It’s fully lined and the fabric is unbelievably soft! It comes in several other colors if pink isn’t your thing.

Linking this classic crewneck sweater (because we still need sweaters in Spring in New England!) and Uber feminine ruffled tiered midi skirt.

#LTKover40

Just found out this dress is now on sale so re-sharing it with you! Also linen blend is definitely going to be a summer staple and I’ve found the perfect Petite (also comes in regular) linen blend midi shirt-dress.
