Height: 5 feet and a half inch (yep, that half inch makes a world of difference!)
Even though my style seems to always be evolving, one thing that hasn’t changed is that it’s always been feminine and a little fancy. I love accessories, heels, and girly details, no matter the season or the occasion. My friends find this a bit funny since my personality is not girly at all, but I can’t help but like what I like!
I think a lot of people think that you can’t be petite and curvy at the same time, as if petite inherently means slender and slight. I always feel like people look at me funny when I say I’m petite or need to try on clothes in petite sizes.
Don’t let sizes control your life! I find that I really have to try pieces on to see if they fit well, and my “size” really ranges, depending on the cut, the designer, and the fabric of the item. Remember that designers aren’t really keeping petite and curvy girls in mind as they design their clothes, so their sizes aren’t always going to dictate what fits perfectly. Don’t be afraid to go up above what you normally consider your size either…no one will ever know what size you’re wearing, and it’s more important to wear something that fits well!
I have so many favorites, it’s hard to say. I love Anthropologie, H&M, Banana Republic, ModCloth.com, various vintage shops, F21 for the fun stuff, and of course, Marshall’s and Loehmann’s for the discounts!
Banana Republic, Ann Taylor

Ahhh you look fantastic! I’m in love with that first blue dress, the picture with the balloons is adorable. Really, really love the pleated skirt and mustard top too. Great style advice!
