Petite Fashion, Style, Issues and Random Rants
ShareProject Runway Canada winner Sunny Fong is known for using a wider range of sizes for his line, VAWK, but once again, he is ignoring the shorter woman in his casting call for his upcoming Toronto Fashion Week show. While the call does allow for non-runway height women (5’6″ and above, without heels), I cannot [...]
ShareThis post is a long time coming as some of the purchases came over two weeks ago! Since I signed up for the flash sale site, Peacock Parade back in the fall, I had mostly been buying dresses. Lately, it has been tops – ones that I can wear into spring and even summer. The [...]
ShareI saw a Tweet from @hmusa recently about the fact that the plus department in the US is rebranding from Big & Beautiful to the more appropriate H&M+ name. Sizes this department will carry will range between 14 and 24. While I knew that H&M had plus sizes, I can’t help but wonder if they’ll [...]
ShareWith a theme of 1960s London, going into the disco era of the 1970s, Betsey Johnson’s Fall/Winter 2012 collection opens with a short video of girls screaming at who’s presumably The Beatles. The collection was full of bright colours, miniskirts, floppy hats, chunky sweater dresses and po’boy caps we see a typical Betsey production of [...]
ShareI like much of the collection, especially the pairing of the dresses with tall boots (this style is pretty much all I wear in the winter. Glad to see that I won’t look out of place next year – lol). Most of the skirt lengths are above the knee, which means that they’d be right [...]
Share So New York’s Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week started yesterday, presenting collections for the upcoming Fall/Winter 2012 season. As with previous seasons, many of the shows were streamed online, including BCBGMaxAzria. Though I really like the colour blocking, palette and found the designs to be better than past seasons, the skirt lengths, as usual, were really [...]
Boho is always cool for spring and RW&Co.’s latest pieces are no different. These items, with their whimsical looks are great for a casual afternoon, whether you’re going to the movies, shopping or just having lunch with friends. Some favourite pieces in the collection include: Cranberry Floral Dress & Black Floral Dress: While… [Continue Reading]
ShareThey’re surprisingly ankleish on me, even though it’s not a petite size (Jacob does not do petites), especially when tucked into a lose-ish fitting top (as I’m wearing in the pictures). What do you think of this? Pants: Jacob Houndstooth Ankle Pants, size 0 – $79 CDN Top: Lucian Matis, size XS Blazer: Femme [...]
ShareElaine (Toronto Beauty Reviews), Loretta (Petite in the City), Jessy (The Little Dust Princess) and I (Shorty Stories and DelectablyChic!) got together last night for Winterlicious, the winter edition of the twice-yearly “Licious” event here in Toronto. This was a long over-due get-together as we had originally planned something before the holidays. In fact, other [...]
ShareIn case you haven’t caught my post over at DelectablyChic!, J.Crew is opening another Toronto location at the Eaton Centre later this year! Other stores slated to hit the downtown mall include Express, Pink (opening across from sister store, Victoria’s Secret) and Juicy Couture. What stores would YOU like to see in Toronto? What [...]
