I have the worst time finding jeans for my body type as I have short legs and it seems like all jeans are made for women with much longer legs! I love shopping maurices for all the cute styles and how affordable everything is so I tried out their jeans and fell in love!
Denim for Short Legs
I tend to go for high waist jeans as it makes your legs look so much longer. The button front design gives these a great trendy touch and the dark denim is so great for fall!
I love how these KanCan jeans fit, they have really great stretch and hugs you in all the right places! Although they were a bit long on me (which is always the case with jeans!) it was easy for me to roll up and make them fit perfectly.
Maurices is one of my favorite places to get my jeans as they have so many different washes and styles. I tend to prefer skinny jeans but also have been wearing a lot of straight leg jeans and I love how these are perfectly distressed.
How to style jeans for fall
Jeans are a staple for fall and an easy way to transition from summer to fall with your jeans is to pair with a cute tee like this floral one I’m wearing or a cute graphic tee. Then you’ll want to top it off with a lightweight jacket and for shoes, I’m obsessed with these mules, but this outfit would go great with a pair of casual sneakers as well.
They have so many cute styles, and a great size range as well! Head over to the Jean Shop to see them all!
I paired my jeans with a comfy floral tee and love that you can get creative with it, you can wear it tucked into your jeans, tie it up or top it off with a cute jacket like this pink one!
Looking for swimwear is always tough and being petite, I am always trying to find suits that will fit a shorter/smaller frame which can often be hard. I have a shorter torso and have trouble finding swimsuits that fit and look good on me.
If you have a tough time finding swimsuits that fit a smaller frame, here are a few go-to spots to find swimsuits that fit petite women and what to look for when shopping online.

Stylish One-Piece petite swimsuits
I find that one piece swimsuits can either go really matronly or really sexy.
It’s funny how it’s hard to find an in-between but now that one piece swimsuits are on-trend it’s easier to find options that will work for us petite ladies.
This suit is by far one of my favorites as it’s very flattering on, the torso fits great and it’s a bit low cut but not super revealing.
And the most important part it hugs your body in all the right places and you never feel like you’ll fall out of it in the pool.
Nordstrom is a go-to not just for selection but their generous return policy.
This allows you to purchase a few styles to try on at home and see what works best for you.
I find that their swimsuits are more higher end but it does make a difference if you are looking for a swimsuit that fits you well and has higher quality fabric.
It’s not common to find swimsuits specially for petite body types which is why I was excited to see that ASOS has a line of petite swimsuits.
I’ve ordered a lot from their petite clothing line and find that fit tends to run small so I always size up. However, I do love that they cater this line to petite girls and found that it fits great.
Styles are always so cute and trendy and priced right around $50 but often times I can even find them on sale for less than $20!
I can completely understand not wanting to spend a lot of money on swimsuits.
I live in Seattle and don’t get much use out of my swimsuits unless I go on vacation so I do like having some more affordable choices that I won’t feel so bad about spending money on.
Shop for affordable swimsuits at:
Target
Walmart
Aerie
Amazon
Gap
Old Navy
I love shopping Aerie for their bras and panties but their swimsuits have quickly become my favorites as well. They are mostly under $50 and they have some great sales. Most of the time I can get them for under $30!
If you are like me and always seem to wait until last minute to shop for your beach vacation, Amazon is always a great spot for cute swimsuits and free 2-day shipping! (If you are not a Prime member yet, that’s just another reason why you should sign up!)
One thing I will say about Amazon is that pictures can be deceiving.
I look at the images to see if I like the style but I read the reviews to make sure that when it arrives it looks like the swimsuit and also to get fit advice.
Most of these suits are under $40 and I own a few of them and have been happy with the quality!
This smocked high waist bikini is one of my favorites that I own. I’ve worn it to every beach/sunny vacation that we’ve traveled to. It holds up well and is comfy and so cute!
I love vests during the fall. It’s such an easy layering piece and I have fallen in love with this vest that not only works well as a vest but it can also be worn alone as a dress!
It’s such a versatile piece so I’ve been wearing it with a ton of outfits and wanted to share a day to night look.
I love the pleating detail and how it makes my casual outfit just a tad bit dressier. And how cute is this star shirt dress? I love shirt dresses and this one is so pretty in person, the black material has a bit of gold specks in it. It’s the perfect date night dress! I added the vest over the dress as it was a suprisingly warm night so didn’t need a heavy coat. I think it was the perfect topper!
One of my favorite things for fall is to pull out all my coats! I just love coats and admittedly have a lot! One thing that I don’t have is a great trench coat and mostly because I have found that it is always hard to find one that fits right. They are always too long and too big and just overwhelming on a small frame.
When Petite Studio reached out and I clicked over to their site, I was immediately drawn to this gorgeous pink trench! I love that everything they carry and design is specifically for petite girls (5’4″ and under). This trench is just the perfect piece for fall and it fits so well! It’s also my favorite color, I just adore all things that are this pretty blush pink. They did advise me that it runs a little big so I ordered the XXS. It fits great in the shoulders and I love the length. The quality is SO good. It’s a very thick and warm material with a good weight to it. It does come with a belt, I just didn’t show it in the photos.
I also have my eye on this pink bomber jacket – I mean so cute right? And this little white dress? I need! I’m already pairing it with a cozy cardigan and gray over the knee boots! Definitely check them out for some great petite options!
