Well fitting petite pants

There are many aspects of finding a great pair of fitting pants. Gaping waist, baggy front area near the zipper, nice fit in the butt and of course the length. I think for a short girl it is just as important to have the right leg cut to create a flattering leg. This is even more important with a crop pant. As you can see on this first pair of khaki pants the box crop pant really cuts off the leg, creating an unflattering break and making the leg look shorter.

A more flattering look is this slim cut leg with a rolled cuff or below the straight leg black pants in the last photo. See how they lengthen the look giving the illusion of a longer leg.

All pants can be found at Bloomingdale's petites.

The Ultimate Blog Party

This is a new blog for me. It come from my frustration of finding fashionable clothing that fits my 5" tall body. I know there are a lot of short girls out there, so join in the chat about stylish "little women."

Look Ageless - good eyebrow wax

This has nothing to do with being short, but I can't say enough about how a good eyebrow wax can make you look younger. It just opens up the whole eye area...especially as you get into your forties. The most important thing is to find a good esthetician. Don't go to a salon where the hair dressers also does the waxing. They do not know what they are doing. Go to someone who specializes in skin care. Trust me! You'll end up with a bad job and wax in your hair. It is a trial and error thing, but you will find the right person...and it could take years of your age!!!
