Thank you for showing your belly in the "what not to do" portion of your videos. You do such an amazing job covering your belly I didn't believe you had one! I feel better about my own tummy after watching your funny and helpful video, Chi! Thank you so much!!!

Having just discovered your channel, I’ve been binge watching them and wondering why your videos are just so darn good!! So many useful tips which isn’t just a repeat of all the other channels. I mean, how come I haven’t heard of these tips anywhere else. Brilliant!! Subscribed!👌👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😍

My waist is not thick, but my hip is a little narrow. So I like all these tips as they can help me to create more feminine curve in that area. And your sense of humor always brings smile to me. Thank you, Chi.

This is so helpful! I love the presenter. She makes it very clear not only what not to wear, but why you shouldn't wear certain styles. And then, she tells you what WILL work. Great!

Fab inspiration with a “don’t take yourself too serious attitude”. Love your channel. ❤️🇨🇦❤️

[Meagan]

I laughed so hard at the impatient exercise bit. That is so me! Thanks for these tips.

[StarmoongalASMR]

Yay! Love all your tips! I have a wider waist naturally and it’s sooo frustrating because certain styles really make me look wider and bigger than I really am. These tips will help! And I just loved the intro!🥰

So great to get tips from someone who lives a petite life, too! Your experiences add so much to the tips you provide.

I thought I would never find petite styling ideas! I'm so glad I found your site!

Could not love your channel any more if I tried!!! I watched pretty much from the beginning, and it's amazing how you have evolved!! Just so wonderful!!

🌟 Chi: You are in a class of your own in this category 🌟. Will remain forever in awe of your talents. You have the eye👁️ of a visual 🖌️artist 🎨. Your 📷 images of what 🚫 to wear & what to wear instead is transformative. Your humor is life-saving!

👩‍🏫Your explanation today helped me fully understand why I dislike skinny jeans, jeggings, or even tapered cigarette style pants on my hourglass⏳figure. All that puts the 👀focus on my already exaggerated proportions😳. That explains why I've gravitated toward straight (or wide leg) trousers. (Always HATED flared pants with a passion🤣.)

Not a huge fan of flare, unless it's on a fit & flared dress or skirt👗. 🤗Tend to reserve that more voluminous style when feeling flirty & feminine. 😖A full skirt seems too fussy for everyday use.

😉Can 💯% see how an A-line shape in a skirt can minimize the waist & hips, but that simply hasn't been a silhouette I favor. Bought softly flaring skirts that never got worn, however flattering😂. They simply don't fit my personality. For better or worse, the majority of my skirts are straight. 🤔Guess I'll have to compensate in other ways...

Thanks for another great video, Che! Gosh, you look great in that red top you're wearing!!

[christinegengaro]

I love this channel!! Where have you been all my life?!?! I wish I had had these videos twenty years ago. I’ve been dressing so wrong for my body type for most of my life, and this is really helping me figure it out.

Great tips! You are VERY WITTY! So glad to see there is a store to aid with clothing pieces mentioned!

[sharonva]

I absolutely love your videos and your humor. I am 5'2 and thick so the tips are awesome. But the humor cracks me up every time. Keep up the great work.

[JuliaShalomJordan]

Love you and your videos, Chi. 💖 you help a girl out with the info we really need.

[suzanschneider]

Another great video. I love your humor. I used to joke with my husband when window-shopping online: “If I buy this outfit, will I look like her?” (the model wearing the clothes (who’s probably 5’10” and 115 lbs.)

[faithlim]

Finally styling tips for petite O shape or Apple shape ladies 👍🏼

[marygillespie]

Have a great weekend, dear!
