Being petite it’s so hard to make an outfit work for you if you love bold prints not necessarily it looks good on you, if by chance it does look good it won’t fit you.We have come a long way in terms of petite clothing offering in the U.K. however it’s still not enough. The choices are not enough for one to experiment with different styles and outfit. We can go the alteration route, but it’s quite expensive and not all outfits can be altered the way you want.So over the course of few months I have been trying to explore my personal style and create a closet that works for me.

I am not even close to petite 5ft 10in but I actually just reversed your tips for a tallie. I like your suggestion to follow the style bloggers who are petite (in my case tall) Thanks so much. Bron x

Hi, I love your suggestions! Especially about finding someone with similar height and body shape and checking out what works for them.
I think I’m average height, but I feel your pain because in most stores clothes are made for tall girls. I always try everything on, because most items (especially skirts and dresses) are often too long.
