They are so comfortable you can just throw them on and wear them and hang them by the beach or the pool all day. If you are packing for a resort vacation or going to a beach wedding, they are probably your best bet. Maxi skirts and skirts create that long column of colors which vertically lengthens and thus makes petite girls look taller. If you wonder why, here is the reason: petite women needs length in their style in order to look taller. Is it surprising to you they are very flattering to petite women? Add a long coat when the weather gets chilly and you are good to go. Pair them with tall boots in the fall and winter for an easy and fashionable look.

That is the classic mini skirt length without looking trashy. What is the ideal length for you? 2-3 inches above your knee is perfect. Mini skirts are the easiest to style for a short person and make her legs look super long, instantly. If you don’t own a lot of them already, please, please add some to your wardrobe. These are the Classic Must-haves for Your Petite Wardrobe! Because of the A line shape, if you are wearing a very short skirt and want to avoid showing your undies, make sure it is a skort.

I am a petite apple shape and my area of concern is my stomach,

I will wait for the sales though in late summer. (under $20)No fear of spending $99 there but then maybe if I would spend $99 I would find a skirt that looked better on me.

I guess broomstick skirts look good on tall slim women not medium short women like me who carry their weight around the mid-section.īut you are right they would be great for casual night on a cruise and easy to pack and no worry about wrinkles. Infact at my 5' 4" height I kept stepping on the hem-another reason for not buying them I guess. I won't be buying them.īut they were long. I may be a size 8-10 now instead of a 12-14 but I still looked short and dumpy in them and I would have thought by looking at myself in those skirts that I was a size 18. Before they were never a good look but I found they still are not a good look. I decided to try a couple on since I lost weight.
