| Maxi dress jersey from Warehouse Discounted price for £7 |
As I was browsing for my new key investment pieces, I fell in love with plain maxi dresses and skirts. They are simple, comfortable and would work well with layerings. I wonder why I haven't thought of them before! Maybe because I always thought that maxis would not suit petite girls like me. But I guess with the right cut, the right accessories and shoes, one could look taller. The maxis dresses and skirts were of course from last season summer look, but good news is they are on SALE now. :)
This time around I try to use my brains to work out what would look nice on me instead of just looking nice. So these are the outfits I chose.

| Tubedress in petite size from Asos Discounted price for £8 |
I would then pair them with belts (i am still looking for a tan leather boyfriend belt) like this look below
and cover with waterfall cardi or a one buttoned jacket/ blazer like these:

Reiss Angelo Stripe To Button Blazer |
 |
Mango Ticking Stripe Jacket |
 |
ASOS Belted Longline Waterfall Cardi |
- to be more adventurous with volume bottoms
- cardigan / jackets that slims the waist - eg would be the one buttoned jacket/blazer which will draw the eyes away from chuncky arms and shoulders
- Wear bold bangles (i love this one!) to again draw the eyes towards bottom half
- Wear long strapped bags which rests on my hips (not under the shoulders!)
I'm still unsure about wide leg jumpsuits as I am not certain jumpsuit is a good idea for petite girls to begin with, but I'll probably have a go in the fitting room one day if I do find them. I love palazos and wide leg trousers too but its risky to buy trousers online in case it doesnt fit me properly. I have to reserve that for offline shopping :)
