These are my 3 top petite stylist picks for fall.
When it comes to shopping it’s important consider if each piece resonates with your personal style and your future vision for your style. This will keep you from having a confused closet with pieces that don’t mix and match. Each item also needs to work for your body type for it to be a worthy investment for your closet.
Here are three key pieces I will be investing in this season, along with the reasons why they are great for a stylish and functional petite closet.
1. The Mini Shirt Dress
The mini shirt dress is a versatile piece that checks all the boxes for me. It can be styled in various ways to create either a chic or edgy look, making it perfect for different occasions. For someone petite like me, at 5’3″, shorter hems are more proportional and flattering.
I particularly love the 90’s Street Chic vibe of the Mui Mui runway look. It resonates with my affinity for the 60’s aesthetic as well. This style not only feels fun and comfortable but also transitions beautifully into cooler weather when paired with cozy tights and boots. Investing in a mini dress is a no-brainer for me, as it allows for endless styling possibilities.
2. The Cropped Blazer
When considering a more trendy piece like this cropped blazer, I always ask myself whether I will wear it once the trend has passed. The answer is a resounding yes. Cropped jackets are fantastic for petite frames because they draw the eye upward, elongating the figure. I love pairing them with dresses for a balanced silhouette.
This piece is not just trendy; it’s a wardrobe staple that enhances my overall style. The cropped blazer is perfect for layering and can elevate any outfit, making it a worthy investment for my closet.
3. Tall Boots
Tall boots are making a significant comeback and pair beautifully with both mini and long skirts. However, for someone of my height, finding the right fit is crucial to avoid being overwhelmed by the style. I aim for boots that are more fitted and calf-length to show off more leg.
I’m on the lookout for options that include kitten heels or flats, as these are more proportional for my height. Traditional cowboy boot heights are also appealing, providing a stylish yet practical choice.
Conclusion
These three pieces—the mini shirt dress, cropped blazer, and tall boots—are my go-to investments for the season. They not only flatter my body type but also resonate with my personal style and future vision.
