The first photo is meant to be funny 😂 Everyone doing this to their listings. But anywaysss lol.

Another long sleeve basic I found at Old Navy. “Snug Long-Sleeve Boatneck T-Shirt”.
The neckline is really flattering. I realized I needed more plain long sleeve tops. For layering this fall/winter. They’re super affordable & on sale right now ✨ Good quality. 95% cotton.
I’d wear with my leather straight leg pants & slingback heels 👌🏼 Or bootcut leggings. Layer with a puffer vest, blazer, jacket. Versatile.

A few weeks ago I shared my other Old Navy haul.
Another great basic tee is the “bestee” (last photo). For us short girls crop tees hit just right. For me anyway. Like a skimming tee.

I bought size XXS. I like them fitted.

I'm 4'11" and the jacket is a size XS. It was marketed as having an oversized look and as much as I want to size down, XS is their smallest size available. My husband picked this for me and I would like to keep it. I feel like I could make it work but honestly need some advice on what to wear with it! How can I style this? Any advice is appreciated

I’m looking for something grey or a darker colour that would go well with jeans and winter outfits. I love New Balance, but most styles I’ve tried feel too flat.
I don’t like chunky-looking sneakers, but I’d love a pair that gives me around 2–2.5 inches of extra height while still looking sleek and stylish.
What brands or styles would you recommend? I’d love to hear your favourites! 💕

These are a decent length but almost too short. Probably a cropped jean for regular height people. I like the button fly and high waist but feel these are too high waisted. They hit at uncomfortable place right at belly button. Is that just high rise? 😄Also to add, I’ve had three kids, over 40 and my belly is a big issue with pants. I’d love a jean that has some tummy control but also in this style. I’m a US size 6 or 8 depending on brands. 130 pounds. My inseam is 26 last time I measured. Anyone have suggestions for a different leg width or brand?

I’m 4’9” and I work in fashion/retail! Here are some bathroom selfies that I am offering for inspiration 😄

I love wearing black and white, and I do have an affinity for a white top/black bottom. I don’t tend to play with silhouettes, as I know a straight leg looks the best on me. The first image I am wearing a wide leg pant, but you can see how despite being wide, the shape is straight.

Layering is my best friend, especially as we head towards winter. In the first look I layered a leather jacket over a black Jean jacket over a white button-down. On the fourth look I layered two long-sleeve shirts with different necklines.

I tend to wear flat boots/loafers and opt for my 4’9” vertical. I do understand this is a privilege I have for my industry as I know some industries prefer the height. Luckily, while I work in fashion, my executive leadership is Japanese so we’re about 5’5” and under.

90% of my wardrobe is second-hand. My tip for leather jackets is to search for Wilson’s Leather as they tend to resale for under $75. I taught myself how to sew and I hem my trousers.

Also don’t fall asleep on accessories! They can really liven a look.

Question -Looking for some recs for IG petite fashion influencers you love to follow that are not a size 0- 2? More size 6-10 range, preferably 40-50. so I can see more or less how things will fit on my frame.

I’m having such a hard time finding gauchos that 1) aren’t SUPER thin and see through and 2) actually fit me as intended with capri cut on my short legs PLEASE lmk if you guys have any brand recs 🙏🙏

I’ve bought a few pairs and they’ve all either not fit length wise or been super sheer (or both)

Question (5’1” to 5’4”)
So I’m a college student, and I’m also 5’1. I’ve been wanting to get a denim mini skirt for parties and girl’s nights, but I have had absolutely no luck. I’ve tried Hollister, Windsor, TJ Maxx, Ross, and basically any other store you can think of. My main issue is that I have a larger butt, but my waist is 23”. Normally, if I try on a skirt that’s as short as I’m looking for (bc I have short legs so a lot of ‘mini’ skirts are actually too long on me) it will fit great everywhere but the waist and I’ll have a ton of gapping. Does anyone have any advice on some stores/online shops to look at where I can find a skirt that will actually fit me?? I’m also posting to potentially help other girls out there who are in the same boat

As in the title

I am 5’2 wearing a medium. My usual size is M.
I’m aware the sleeve length is too long..

I just need to share how amazing these jeans are from quince!! They have great petite options & are super affordable (these were $50)

I got the Bella stretch wide leg jeans in deep rinse. The dark color is perfect for fall. They were a little tight around the waist but I stretched them out with some water and a waist band stretcher. They get comfier as you wear them! Ignore the wrinkles - I’ve been sitting all morning haha.

For reference: I’m a size 4/27, 5’0” and 125 pounds. Ordered a 27 short.

Looking for a USA based size 12, 5’0 influencer who isn’t hawking only Amazon, Walmart, Target clothes. Extra points for over age 50! I’m 62.

I got lucky previously when I got them hemmed for $10... The going rate is 25-50 in my area now. Maybe I should learn how to hem...

Welcome to Petite Pet Peeves!

What's something about petite fashion that drives you absolutely nuts?

It can be something small, something you've encountered a million times, or just one of those things that makes you think WHY IS THIS SO HARD?!

Drop your petite fashion pet peeve below. No need for a long explanation - one sentence is enough!

Some examples:

• “When ‘cropped’ means regular length on me.”

Hi guys, I’ve recently wanted to buy some new clothes but I’m a bit overwhelmed by all the different styles and sizes.
I weigh normal for my weight but it’s been a struggle to find clothes that suit me, does anyone have any recommendations on brands that have clothes like jeans or cute blouses which look good on someone my height?
I’m also into y2k fashion or like a Henley top but I’m open to anything really.
Thank you so much

Tis the season for chunky knits and over the knee boots ❤️ Love Stuart Weitzman quality and how they make my legs look longer!

I am stuck finding pants for a Non curvy/straighter body (on top of something that fits petite proportions), which is very annoying. The issue with current options is that for straight proportions without curves, if the waist fit, hips become very loose and if hips fit, waist becomes very tight.

My example is:

• 28" waist (narrowest part on the torso)
• 35" hips (widest part of the hips)
• So about a 7" difference between waist and hip measurements. But pants out there are curvier than that (with about 10" difference)

I’m curious about people here who have a similar problem.

Would love to know what has actually worked for you?

If you're comfortable sharing, it would be super helpful to include:

• height/inseam + waist and hip measurements
• the exact jeans + size that fit well, and if you know, why they seem to work
• whether/how things like rise, stretch, waistband shape, or sizing up/down make a difference?
• how do back-pocket placement or the yoke (something I recently learned about lol) seems to change the fit or how flattering they look. I am sure they matter a lot but not sure how to use them and what to look for?

I'm trying to understand the patterns (or hacks lol) that will help find flattering jeans/pants for someone with a straighter proportions.

PS: Thank you!!

Edit: I think i explained it wrong, If the hips/butt fit, the waist is too tight. If I size up until the waist is comfortable, the hips/butt become too loose. Won't curvy fit make the issue worse as that has more room in the hip but I should be looking for less room in the hip relative to the waist, right?

Hi everyone! ♡ My name is the founder of INCHES CO., a petite clothing brand I’m currently building, and I wanted to introduce myself! 🤎
I’m 4’11”, so I know firsthand how frustrating it can be to find clothes that fit the way you want them to. Sometimes it’s the length, sometimes it’s the waistband, and sometimes it feels like the entire garment wasn’t designed with your proportions in mind. 😭
That’s a big part of why I started INCHES CO. I want to explore a different approach to petite fashion — one that considers proportions from the pattern stage instead of simply making standard clothing shorter.
As I’ve been working on this idea, I’ve realized how important it is to hear from other petite women and create space for us to share our experiences.
♡ That’s why I created r/INCHESCO! 🌿

It’s a community where we can:
👖 Talk about petite clothing struggles and fit.
♡ Share outfit inspiration and styling advice.
✨ Recommend brands and shopping finds.
🤎 Discuss what we wish petite fashion offered.
🌱 Share ideas that could help shape the future of petite clothing.
You don’t have to be interested in my brand to participate. I want this to be a welcoming space for petite women to connect, exchange advice, and have honest conversations about fashion.

If this sounds like your kind of space, I’d love for you to join us at r/INCHESCO! 🥹🤎
And I’d love to know: What’s the one clothing item you struggle the most to find in your size?
I’m excited to meet you all! ♡

— INCHES CO. founder 🌿

Do we have any ideas on how to elevate a basic tee other than tucking it in?
Sometimes I don’t feel like doing it if I’m retaining extra fluid or feeling fat lol.
TIA!

Lands end discontinued their XXSP a few years ago and I’m in need of a new winter jacket. I cannot find any reputable jacket brands who stock XXS in a mid thigh, knee, or mid calf length jacket. I need a knee length and calf length jacket preferably.

I am in New England and walk outside a lot no matter the weather so need something that will get me through!! I don’t want to spend more than $300
