Petite dresses for spring

Shirt dress

The comfortable shirt dresses will be trending in spring. However, a shirt dress is something you can wear all year round when styled properly and for years to come. Therefore, a good shirt dress is a good investment. I have a cute cotton dress from Vero Moda and plan on wearing it to work this spring- comfortable and cute.

Floral feminine dresses

Floral dresses have been the spring staple and will stay like that. Style the cute floral dress with a faux leather jacket and ankle boots, and you have a cute daily outfit.

Petite bottoms for spring

Athleasure trousers

I am so happy to see a lot of comfortable clothing this year as I started work where I need to be casual and cosy (but covered). Will look into some athleasure pants this year!

Khaki mini skirt

The pleated mini skirt is my favourite bottom piece for short women. Therefore, I had to include the khaki skirts, specifically the mini skirt! The skirt does not have to be micro, it can be longer and even midi if you want to. Finally, the khaki mini skirt can be styled in many ways- with sweaters, blouses, shirts and more.

Wide leg denim pants

Wide pants are not the most flattering for Petite women. Therefore, I suggest you to choosing high-waisted wide jeans, that are slim on your hips and go wider below the buttocks.

Mid-length skirt

Last but not least for Petite bottoms, midi skirt. My followers know that I stand for elegant midi skirt for short women- a lot more than maxi skirt! There are so many midi skirt to choose from- denim, satin, slit skirt and more.

Petite tops for spring

Masculine blazer

Oversize masculine blazers are in another year. However, it is not my favourite clothing piece for shorties. Therefore, I suggest you to get a good blazer that fits (even if it is masculine), styling it with fitted pants or skirts and blouses underneath!

Trench coat

How can you even survive a spring without a good trench coat? However, this spring trench coats come in different fun designs, oversize and stylish more than the classy trench coats.

Accessories

Crescent bags

The crescent bags are coming in style. These bags are very luxury-looking and classy- and everyone can find one for them!

Neutral flats

When it comes to flats, the most important part is to choose wisely! Because a lot of flats can hurt your feet and be uncomfortable. My favourite flats are from Vivaia (use code VKRISTINE for 18% off). Finally, suggest looking into slingbacks- they are very classy and timeless.

White sneakers

I lived around 27 years without owning one pair of Converse. However, now I cannot imagine having my wardrobe without white Converse sneakers.

Elegant heels

Finally, elegant heels for ladies! Lately, my heeled footwear only includes block-heel boots and low-heel pumps or sandals. I appreciate good heels but they must be comfortable for my feet.
