Quick beauty favorites I’ve been using lately 💕

The Catrice Shine Erase Gel Powder is such a good one for taking down shine without making my skin look overly powdered.

I also used my e.l.f. nude lip pencil + Maybelline Lifter Gloss in Gummy Bear for an easy everyday lip.
E.l.f. Lip pencil is in shade Mauve Ahead.

When you want to look cute for coffee but still feel comfortable. ❤️

This light blue button-down from Walmart is one of those easy pieces that makes getting dressed feel effortless. Paired with my favorite jeans and a few simple accessories, it’s a classic petite-friendly outfit that works for coffee, lunch, brunch, or a casual day out.

Simple, comfortable, and still put together — exactly how I like my everyday style. ❤️

Almost petite-friendly jeans… just add heels. ❤️

These wide-leg Universal Thread jeans from Target are almost petite-friendly on me at 5’0” — but with a pointy-toe heel, the proportions just work.

This is one of those easy, classic everyday outfits I’d wear for lunch, brunch, errands, or a casual date. The chambray button-down keeps it classic, while the wide-leg jeans, heels, and LV Speedy make it feel a little more polished.

Petite fashion doesn’t always mean everything has to be labeled petite — sometimes it’s all about the styling. ❤️

Teasing 101 ✨ Fine-Hair Volume Tutorial

If your hair falls flat after teasing, the technique matters.

For this look, I used:

* A rat-tail comb for controlled teasing
* Color Wow Texas Hold’Em hairspray to lock in the tease
* A little time to let it set
* More hairspray to finish and hold everything in place

The key is controlled teasing instead of randomly backcombing the hair, then smoothing the surface once the volume is set.

My full Tutorial Tuesday video is coming tomorrow, but you can shop everything I used here. 🤍

The little black dress…with pockets 🤍

Okay, this one is GOOD. I’m 5’0” and wearing my usual size 2. It runs true to size, has pockets, and the fit is feminine without feeling overly dressy.

The black makes this one especially versatile—you could keep it simple with sandals now or add a cardigan and different shoes later for that easy transitional/fake-fall look.

Definitely one of those “you’ll reach for it more than you think” dresses. 🤍

Target bootcut denim first impression 🤍

I’m 5’0” and tried these Universal Thread high-rise bootcut jeans in my usual size 2. They fit really well through the waist and hips and have a nice, classic silhouette.

Petite note: these can absolutely be worn with sneakers, but I personally prefer them with a little heel because it gives the leg a longer, more streamlined look.

I also really like that they feel more versatile for everyday wear than a wide-leg jean.

These are definitely worth a look if you’re petite and want a classic bootcut without immediately committing to a super high heel. 🤍

Target denim first impression 🤍

I’m 5’0” and tried these Universal Thread high-rise wide-leg jeans in my usual size 2. The fit through the waist and hips is really good, and I LOVE the structured denim and wide-leg shape.

The petite caveat: they don’t need to be hemmed on me, but I do need a heel. With a flat, they’re too long for my proportions, but with the right heel, the length works.

So if you’re petite, that’s something I’d keep in mind before ordering. They also come in Short if you want to try that route.

I’m still deciding if I’d keep them, but for $28, I think they’re worth a look if you’re wanting a wide-leg jean. 🤍

Polka dots + pockets = yes please 🤍

This Target find is SO cute! I’m 5’0” and wearing my usual size 2. It runs true to size, has pockets, and the fit is really flattering without feeling fussy.

I also love that it can easily be dressed up or down — definitely one of those easy pieces you can reach for when you want to look pulled together without overthinking it.

A wedding guest dress that is even prettier in motion. 🤍🌸

The ASTR Bayley is one of those dresses that just moves beautifully — and I think you can really see that in this video. It’s feminine, flattering, and photographs so well, including when you’re sitting down.

I’m wearing my usual size and would say it runs TTS. If you’re between sizes, I’d size up.

And the Sam Edelman block heels? Equal happy feet. 😂👠
I wanted the height without sacrificing my ability to actually walk, stand, and enjoy the event. My feet were VERY thankful.

I’ve linked the Bayley from multiple retailers so you can check availability, pricing and sizing, plus I’ve added a few less-expensive dresses with a similar feminine wedding-guest feel because beautiful doesn’t have to mean spending $200.

Concert outfit idea 🎶

Easy, comfortable, and petite-friendly — because I want to actually enjoy the concert, not spend the whole night adjusting my outfit. 😂

❤️ Red tank: Runs true to size and comes in petite sizing. I’m wearing the regular size because of my chest. And it’s around $8, so… hard to argue with that.

🤍 Denim skirt: Mine is from Petal & Pup, but unfortunately it’s currently sold out, so I linked a similar option.

🤎 Birkenstocks: Linked a similar option here, too.

An easy outfit for a country concert, a casual summer night, or honestly just a quick Starbucks stop before heading out. 🎶☕️

A dress that makes you feel GOOD. 🤍🌸

The ASTR Bailey is such a beautiful wedding guest dress — feminine, flattering, and it photographs so beautifully. I especially love the way it looks sitting, too. The photos really show off the dress.

I’m wearing my usual size and it runs TTS. If you’re between sizes, I’d size up.

Paired it with my Sam Edelman block heels, and let me just say… my feet were VERY thankful. 😂 A block heel is always the move when I know I’ll actually be walking, standing, and enjoying the event.

And because I know we don’t all want to spend the same amount on a dress, I’ve linked a few less-expensive floral maxi options with a similar feminine/wedding-guest feel below. 🤍

A coffee run is always a little better with an outfit you love. ☕🤎

This rust-colored dress is one of those easy throw-on-and-go pieces that still looks polished. It’s comfortable, flattering, and perfect for coffee dates, running errands, brunch, or casual weekends.

It’s lightweight enough to wear now and will transition beautifully into fall.

I’ve linked my dress and accessories so you can shop the entire look.

The face-framing curl trick that changed how my hair sits. 🤍

I started doing this one little thing differently when I curl the pieces around my face, and it makes such a difference in how the finished style falls and frames my face.

It’s a tiny change, but sometimes those are the tricks that make the biggest difference.

I’m linking the BaBylissPRO I use + a few more budget-friendly curling irons if you want to try the technique without investing in a professional tool.

Save this one for your next curl day! ✨

Pool days, but make them cute + functional. ☀️🤍

These are the things I actually reach for from swimwear and my elevated swim cover-up pants to my crisp white YETI hat for shade and my pink YETI cup that keeps my drink cold and has a handle. 💕

And I LOVE our his + hers YETI Caminos for pool days. They hold towels, sunscreen + all the extras, but they’re definitely not just pool bags — they’re great for sports and everyday activities too. I love that they come in different sizes, including a smaller zip-top option.

Basically… cute things that actually have a purpose. 😂

Wedding Guest Dress Series | Dress #3 💜

This lavender floral maxi dress is so pretty, and that back is a total showstopper. 😍

A few details:
🤍 True to size—I’m wearing my usual size.
🤍 No hemming needed at 5’0”.
🤍 If you prefer a little extra room through the midsection, especially for a full wedding meal, I’d size up.
🤍 You may need a helper getting it on. 😂

It also comes in the prettiest deep red, which would be gorgeous for a fall wedding.

My go-to workout combo 🤍

I’ve been wearing this combo for my Peloton rides and genuinely love both pieces. I used to wear them for running, too, so they’ve gotten plenty of real-life use.

🤍 Puma square-neck sports bra — I LOVE the square neckline. It feels feminine while still being comfortable enough for a workout, and I love the way it looks on its own or under a layer.

🖤 Fabletics bike shorts — I wear my usual size and they’re comfortable, stretchy and stay put for my rides. TTS.

I also linked a few square-neck sports bras at different price points below, because a good workout bra doesn’t have to mean spending a fortune. 🤍

First impression of this lavender Petal & Pup dress… I LOVE it. 💜

And the petite-girl win? It’s actually floor length on me at 5’0” with no hemming needed. 🙌🏼

I’m also wearing an in-between size and would recommend going up one size if you’re between sizes.

The color, floral print, fit, and length are all giving exactly what I wanted from a wedding guest dress. ✨

Sunday Leo energy 🌸✨

The ASTR the Label Bailey dress is one of those dresses that just makes you feel pretty the second you put it on. I love getting to show it outside because you can see the dress move a little differently—and the sitting view gives you a better idea of the fit, too.

These are even prettier in person. 🎀

I grabbed the Kitsch Ruched Satin Scrunchies because I wanted something soft and pretty for pulling my hair back 🩷 especially at bedtime without the tugging and breakage I can get from regular hair ties.

They also make a version specifically for fine hair, which I love.

Just a quick look at the quality and the gorgeous satin texture because sometimes you need to see the pretty. 🤍

Petite-Friendly Top That Runs Big | Size Down One

If you’re thinking about grabbing this top, my biggest tip is to size down one size for the best fit. It has a relaxed, oversized fit, so going down gives it a more flattering look while still feeling comfortable.

I love styling it with denim shorts now and jeans later for an easy summer-to-fall transition. It’s a versatile staple that can be dressed up with wedges or kept casual with sneakers or sandals.
