Fashion bloggers that are petite and / or hourglass?

I really need some inspiration to dress my shape. I'm not tall (5'1), slim and an hourglass shape according to the body type calculators online!

It's a really hard body shape to dress. If I don't show my waste, everything just flows from my boobs and makes me look bigger.

Because I'm short, the proportions of clothes are a bit wrong.

All the fashion bloggers I follow are average height and stick thin.

Need to find some short girls like me to follow!

Either that, or ones with hourglass shapes.

Anyone know any? I don't mind where they're based.

Me too! I also want one that's based in the UK to be able to actually buy anything I like. Oh, and one that wears normal high street stuff that doesn't cost a fortune. I think I might be asking too much Grin.

Haha flava! There must be one good one....

Jean Wang is short...but not hourglass and not UK based! But she has a section called 'Petite Resources' that might be helpful.

Yes, short, pear/hourglass (size 10 sometimes 12) AND middle aged. Beat that.

Ohhhhh me too. Over 40 petite Hourglass but with a ruined lower abdomen (thanks twins) and a bit chubby.

(Just realised I wrote waste and not waist Blush)

Ok going to follow Jean Wang!

Someone needs to start the perfect blog for us!!

But she's not middle aged Sad

My favourite petite bloggers are Susie So So
and The Fashion Lift.

Petite Side of Style and Mission Style also post reasonably regularly.

Fleur de force is short, she's more beauty than fashion, but she does do fashion as well.

Thehinterland · 26/08/2017 21:25

These are great! Am now following along with a bunch of them - so thank you! Hadn't come across any of them before.

Really need some bloggers whose bodies look vaguely like mine. It's so hard to find clothes that suit me Confused

Saw another one mentioned on another thread! ChloeLovesToShop. Very slim (made me wonder if she was actually petite) but 40 so a good age!

I'm not petite or Hourglass but I like Smalltownthreads who is super-tiny and very stylish.
