Petite Styling Tips

1. Cropped Tops: Crop tops usually work as regular lengths on petite bodies — especially petite ones — less bulging and a more streamlined look.

2. Cropped Jacket: Same as the tops, cropped jackets will come at the right spot on our torsos. Some will come to your waist, and others slightly above your hips, which is perfect for elongating the legs.

3. Always carry fashion tape. Tops usually go lower on petite frames, and taping it will avoid some accidents and flashing. It also works for cropping jackets and tops.

4. Shoes: Pointed- or almond-toe shoes, hopefully with some heel. However, on sneaker days, shoe inserts are my go-to.

5. Long Jackets/Top Layers: I avoid jackets that hit the widest part of my hips or thighs and instead go for longer lengths. It can be a knee-length or longer jacket that preferably hits under the widest part of my calf or below. The key here is to leave the jacket open to create a vertical line down your body. Remember that you may need to alter it at the waist and arms for the best fit.

I’m familiar with the rule of thirds. But what do the shoe inserts do?
