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. 🤍

FAKE FALL: Five Foot Girly Edition 🍂

It’s September, so apparently it’s fall. 😂

Meanwhile… it’s still 90° outside.

So instead of pretending it’s sweater weather, I’m starting with the easiest fall transition piece: dark denim.

Dark denim instantly makes an outfit feel a little more fall without adding another layer—and for my fellow petite girls, it’s an easy way to start transitioning your wardrobe while the weather catches up.

This is look 1 of my Fake Fall: Five Foot Girly Edition—petite-friendly ways to bring in the feeling of fall while still dressing for the weather we actually have.

Because fall is a feeling.
It doesn’t always have to be a sweater. 🤎

Shop this look below.

5’0” and looking for a formal dress that doesn’t swallow you? 💙

This one is stunning — a floor-length wedding guest dress that actually works on my 5’0” petite frame without looking overwhelming.

Perfect for weddings, fall formals, galas, homecoming, or any elevated party/soirée where you want to feel dressed up. ✨

True to size — I’m wearing my usual size.

I paired it with Sam Edelman heels + chandelier earrings for that extra little bit of sparkle.

✨ Petite-friendly
✨ Runs pretty true to size
✨ Between sizes? I’d go up one
✨ Styled with chandelier earrings + Sam Edelman heels

Fake Fall 🍂 — 5’0 Girly Edition, Part 2

If we’re calling it fall in September, I’m going to need dresses that actually work for 90°+ weather. 😂

This Walmart find checks the boxes: a rich fall color, lightweight enough for warmer weather, and shorts built right underneath. And at 5’0, it hits above the knee without needing to be hemmed. Five Foot Approved ✔️

I paired it with wedges here, but honestly, this is the kind of dress that can easily go casual or dressier depending on the shoes.

Sometimes getting into the fall mood is as simple as choosing the right fall-toned pieces. 🤎

Face-framing styling.

How to Get the Perfect Face-Framing Curls on Short Hair

If your face-framing pieces never seem to fall quite right, this simple curling technique makes all the difference. I use a small curling iron, set each curl with clips while it cools, then finish with a lightweight texture spray for soft movement and lasting volume.

I’m linking everything I used, including my favorite texture spray, curling iron, heat-resistant carbon comb, clips, denim skirt, and Old Navy tank top.

One of my favorite ways to make an outfit feel more fall without adding heavy layers: change the color palette. 🤎

Black wide-leg denim + a knit top gives you that seasonal feel without sacrificing comfort when it’s still warm outside.

These Universal Thread jeans from Target aren’t technically petite, but they work on my 5’0 frame with a heel. They run big, so I recommend sizing down one.

And yes, I went with open-toe heels because it’s still absolutely not bootie weather here. 😂

Petite-friendly + actually easy to style 🖤

This dress runs big, so I recommend sizing down. I’m wearing an XS and it hits above the knee on my 5’0 frame.

I styled it with a lightweight black tweed blazer + Marc Fisher pointy-toe booties for an easy polished fall look without going full sweater weather. 😉

5’0 fit details:
• Wearing XS
• Runs big → size down

The wide-leg jeans I keep reaching for lately 🤍

These are an easy, everyday pair that look cute with everything from a simple tank to a sweater or blouse. And for my petites, I love the length with a little heel.

Fit note: these run big, so I’d recommend sizing down.

Wearing my usual petite-friendly styling: simple white tank + wide-leg denim + hair up because we’re keeping it real. 😂

✨ Petite-friendly holiday dress ✨

The Strapless Vienna Midi Dress is one of those dresses that can take you from holiday parties to weddings, date nights, and all the dressier events on your calendar. ❤️

And if you’re petite, pay attention to the length: while this is technically a midi dress, on my 5’0 frame it fits much more like a long dress. So if you’re petite and usually struggle with midi dresses hitting at an awkward spot, this one is worth a look.

The strapless neckline keeps it classic and feminine, while the longer length makes it feel especially elevated.

Petite details:
🤍 5’0 / size 2
🤍 Fits more like a long dress on me
🤍 Strapless
🤍 Great for holiday parties, weddings & special occasions

One of my everyday beauty staples 🤍

As I transition into fall routines, I’m sharing the NYX Brow Gel that has quickly become a favorite. I love how it keeps my brows looking polished and put together without feeling heavy.

Also linking this easy everyday outfit because a black square neck bodysuit and Levi’s jeans are such a classic combination. The bodysuit runs true to size and is a piece I’ll keep reaching for.

A little black dress that’s doing the work for me. 🖤

This Target A New Day smocked mini A-line dress is petite approved and such an easy piece for transitioning from summer into fall. The smocked bodice gives it a little shape, it has POCKETS (always a win), and the mini length works especially well on my 5’0 frame.

I added a Chanel-inspired jacket for a little structure, my pointy-toe Mark Fisher booties to help elongate the legs, and my Kate Spade taupe bag to keep the look from feeling too dark.

And because it’s on sale right now… 👀

It also comes in maroon polka dot and white/maroon stripe if black isn’t your thing.

I’m 5’0, wearing an XS.

How I’m making wide-leg jeans work for 5’0” me this fall. 🤎

Wide-leg jeans can be a little tricky when you’re petite, but I’m not giving them up. My trick? A little extra length + a pointed heel to give me the height I need without sacrificing the relaxed, effortless look I love.

I paired these with a two-tone chambray shirt, black pointy-toe heels, and my LV bag for an easy fall-inspired look — even when Houston hasn’t gotten the fall memo yet. 😂
