Petite Fashion Challenge #15, courtesy of Long Live Classy, asked readers to recreate an outfit from Pinterest a closely as possible. I have to admit that this was a hard one. First I had to find a pin that I liked AND it had to work with what I had in my closet! And because […]

I’m heading to the Junior League of Toronto’s DelecTABLE Designs preview party on the 26th and need your help picking shoes to wear. I’m probably going to be wearing my Versace for H&M hearts flapper dress, but can’t decide on what shoes to pair it with. Should I wear: 1. Pink Annabels (The Odd Slipper) […]
…not even online! Ron White has received a lot of press lately about his line of oh-so-comfortable shoes, but I can’t wear them. The smallest size I could find at the boutique and online is a 35/5 and it wasn’t just a little bit too big, something that can be helped by insoles, but MUCH […]

The first two are dresses that I got from Homegrown Boutique, a store in Toronto’s Yorkville shopping district that features items from Canadian designers. The first was actually purchased back in the fall when I attended Homegrown Boutique’s Spring/Summer 2012 […]
Last month’s question asked you what percentage of your closet is made up of petite sizes. I was NOT surprised to find out that for many of you, it occupies a good chunk of your wardrobe. 33% of you said that petite sizing occupied 80% or more of your wardrobe (I guess this means there’s […]
Yes, we’re five years old today! You can find our very first post here. Many of our earliest posts were image-free, since the site was more of a rant about petite issues blog than one that was style-related. I wish I can get a screen capture of what the blog looked like when it first […]
