Are you 5’2”? Here are 5 Spring Trends for Petite women

Calling all short women: look no further for the best style advice for your figure. You’re short and proud but you don’t necessarily want to draw attention to the height factor? Just keep scrolling for some game changing trends guaranteed to look good on you.

I have compiled all of my collective style knowledge to bring you a petite style guide, touching on 5 trends to shop this coming up spring. To help you resolve any of your stature-related issues I will be sharing the best fashion advice for short girls. With insider tips and tricks, consider this your ultimate guide for embracing your little figure. 1. Tailored Layering

Do you find yourself drowning in clothes and often taking them to the seamstress? If you are shorter than 5’3 and small boned – you are petite. The oversized trend might be in right now, however, a well-tailored chic outfit best suits a petite body type. I know when people think of the word tailored business professional often comes to mind, but that does not have to be the case at all! It is easy to personalize this trend in your style! This spring we are seeing more fun tailored outfits than ever before, and I am so here for it! Pink blazers with t-shirts, tailored joggers, and even funky patterned suits! 2. Vertical Stripes

Do you want to look taller? For a petite body type – the goal is to extend the body upward. It’s just a simple illusion but wearing vertical stripes verses horizontal will trick the eye to think you are taller than you really are. A great way to wear stipes this season is in skirts and jackets. Not only will this heighten the body but your fashionista spirit, too! 3. Mini Bags

A mini bag for a mini person. The last thing a small girl wants to do is overwhelm her tiny figure, so try opting out big handbags for mini ones. Big and bulky will only cause petite women to look even smaller - it’s all about proportion. Sleek and crossbody bags are two great options this spring season! Sleek bags are less likely to weigh you down and will most defiantly not swallow you up. It is still easy to show off your body while wearing a crossbody and a great trick that many petite women don’t think of! 4. Wedged/Platform Shoes Shoes are a critical part of petite style and if there was only one pair of shoes a petite girl should own it would have to be wedged/platform shoes. They do an incredible job of elongated your figure and that is why they are the best shoes for short legs! Not to mention they will look exceptionally good this spring season when you are wearing dresses, shorts, and dresses. There are so many options when it comes to wedges and that is why they are the best! Wedged Heel Sandal: Consider wedges as an alternative to the stiletto. The wedge heel is perfectly proportionate for Petites. It happily meets in the middle between towering heels and a flat shoe that will only draw attention to your height. The Bushnell in Iridescent, also known as, “America’s Favorite Wedge” features everything one would want in a shoe. Its trendy, comfortable and can be paired perfectly with any pastel color this spring!

Platform Sneaker: Stylish lightweight sneakers for women that have a platform are genuinely the best of both worlds. You are still getting a height boost without the pain. The Meridian in Dove Grey sneaker will be your go-to this spring – lightweight, casual and comfy!

5. High Waisted Everything High waisted styles are a must-have the staple of a petite fashion wardrobe. Not only do high waisted bottoms effectively elevate your waistline, but they also elongate your bottom half to make your legs look instantly longer.
