Petite and don't know what to wear

[Bluee1994]

Hi everyone

I am 5ft 2, 27 years old and very slim. I really don't know what to wear when i'm out and about

I have been trying different things lately because I know what I wear is unflattering

I always wear oversized baggy tops/loose jumpers mainly because I am concious of how I look..but I know that makes me look even smaller

I have a dinner to go to next week and I just don't know what to wear. Everyone's wearing jeans and a nice top but when I wear jeans, even petite ones I feel like I look like a kid

I cant walk in heels either. Please can someone help me put together an outfit

Thank you in advance

Ive also tried looking for petite jumpsuits but again, as I cant walk in heels I dont know what I would wear on my feet if I wore a jumpsuit

If you went for a play suit instead of a jumpsuit then you could wear a flat sandal or even loafers or trainers. Same for mini skirts with a top and blazer style jacket.

Something like this? With a fresh pair of white flat forms?

I can't do heels but some wedges are ok, maybe there might be some that work for you?

Re jeans, black might be better perhaps?

This sort of play suit with flats? From your description of your appearance I think you'd look great in these types of outfits.

Or something like this if you prefer to not have your legs out.

Wow thank you everyone. I can see those type of clothes suiting me actually. I will have a look on asos now. Thank you so much!!

As a fellow petite person (5ft2) and size 6-8, nothing makes me look smaller and more childlike than clothes which are too big or drown me. I have a short torso and jumpsuits/play suits can be difficult, it’s easier to get well-fitting separates.

Maybe check out some jeans and jumpsuits in petite ranges or get things taken up so they fit properly? If your clothes fit and have the right proportions for you you’re likely to feel better in them. ASOS is a good place to start with petite options.

I agree ASOS petite is a great place to look. There’s not much that’s suitable for me on there because I’m in my 60s but I’ve bought some jeans and dungarees and they are great. The dresses I bought were perfect but just looked a bit ridiculous on me because they were such young styles.
