Awesome Fashion Tips for Petite Women

A lot of people see being small-framed as a plus. But those people don’t have to shop in the juniors section! When you’re shorter and smaller than the average woman, it can be difficult to find clothes that not only fit, but also show that you’re a grown-up. If you’re tired of perusing the women’s section to no avail, take these fashion tips to heart. The secret to finding the perfect petite pieces lies in shopping online and choosing flattering cuts and materials. Another benefit to shopping online? Exclusive, online-only sales. Combine these with our Kohls coupons, Macys coupons, Famous Footwear coupons, and Shoes.com coupon codes, and you can have a brand-new wardrobe you love bought on the cheap.

Buy the right size

Smaller women know what it’s like to go to shopping and not find anything in your size. Or worse yet – to see someone pick the last item in your size! This happens so often because many stores don’t carry a large stock of “marginal” sizes, meaning any size higher or lower than the average. That’s why it’s best to shop for petites online. Stores carry a much larger stock of all sizes in their warehouses.

Large department stores like Macys and Kohls do a great job of carrying a range of sizes. These two in particular have separate sections of their websites devoted entirely to petites, and they even include fashion tips for comparing their petites to regular-sized clothes. You’ll see that petite-sized clothing is constructed differently. With this Chaps polka-dot tiered dress from Kohls ($50), for instance, the waist is much higher than on regular sizes to accommodate a smaller torso.

Petite sizes are great for many smaller women because they not only address the issue of fit, they also address the issue of style. Kohls and Macys both carry age-appropriate petites clothing for women of any age. That Chaps dress reads as young and hip, but is still sophisticated. Macys’ line of petite work clothing, like this jacquard skirt suit from Le Suit ($99.99), would look great on any career woman. Buying from the petites section definitely saves on tailoring bills. And with our Macys coupons and Kohls coupons, you can save on the clothes themselves.

Say no to Baggy!

Two other fashion tips for petite women? Stay away from patterns and baggy clothes. Large, loud patterns like paisley or stripes can overwhelm a small frame. It’ll look like the clothes are wearing you, instead of the other way around. If you need some personality in your wardrobe, play around with fun colors or subtle prints. Something like this Tahari by ASL Petite Dress, Sleeveless Colorblocked Sheath (Macys, $80.64) would be perfect. The stark black and white contrast and the Goldtone hardware buckle around the waist make it super modern, and the long lines carved out by the black detailing will make you appear longer. On the other hand, you can also check out the whole Apt. 9 line for Petite clothing at Kohls which is very sexy and by no means boring. Use our Macys coupons and Kohls coupons to stock up.

Even when you choose to mix and match your outfit with a casual cardigan, which is the most comfy clothing for this season, what you should aim for is a piece that is perfectly fit your body but not too baggy. The SONOMA life + style® Textured Cardigan Petite ($24.00) is definitely your ideal cardigan with an eye-catching color and a healthy open front. Availing Kohls coupons is a wise move to make when shopping only for this cute item.

Clothes that are too baggy will also overwhelm you and emphasize your small frame even more. As a petite woman, you can actually get away with wearing shorter and tighter items, especially on bottom, without looking juvenile. Rocking a pair of tight black jeans will make your legs look longer, as will shorter shorts. The trick is finding the right amount of tight, without getting uncomfortable. Tight capris like these Alfani skinny capris ($34.98) paired with a cropped sweater is effortlessly chic, not scandalous. Just in time for spring, Macys carries a number of shorts and capris. Head on over to their online store, and be sure to use our Macys coupons, and save yourself some cash.

Adding the extra length

What else makes you look longer? Well, adding length. It’s one of the oldest fashion tips in the book: Wear tall shoes, and you won’t look so small! Heels are a petite woman’s best friend. And with so many options out there, you can have a different pair for every occasion. For these final winter months, and the rains that come after, you’ll need a good pair of heeled boots. These basic black rainboots from Sporto ($49.99) actually have a bit of a heel to them, though it isn’t obvious. That’s all you need, too – just an inch or so will lengthen your calves and give the appearance of longer legs. When buying boots, just make sure to stay away from ankle booties or anything that ends mid-calf. These will make your legs look stumpy. And also be sure to remember our Famous Footwear coupons! After all, why spend more than you have to?

Once spring is here to stay, you’ll need some fabulous heeled sandals. Wedges are a perennial favorite, probably because they’re lightweight and stable. These nude cork-heeled wedges from A2 by Aeropostale found on Shoes.com for $55.99 are the perfect shoe for spring. The nude color keeps them super versatile, while the cork heel and strappy design keep them in season. A low, two-inch heel means you’ll actually be able to walk in them, too. Don’t be afraid to experiment with different types of sandals. They’re guaranteed to stay in season, and spring is the time for fun footwear. Whatever you do, don’t settle for the sticker price. Use our Shoes.com coupon codes to save big money on shoes.

There are quite a few things to keep in mind when shopping as a petite woman. But with these fashion tips, you won’t be lead astray. Sticking to the petites section is a good place to start. Most stores, but especially large department stores, carry a wide variety of styles to suit any taste in petite sizes. And as for shoes, make heels a wardrobe staple. They don’t need to be high at all for you to reap their benefits. Simply choose a shoe that fits your needs, whether that be a sky-high wedge or a sensible boot.

Now that you have these tips, it’s finally time to start looking your age. Abandon the junior’s section and look online. And when it comes time to order, remember our Kohls coupons, Macys coupons, Famous Footwear coupons, and Shoes.com coupon codes.

Oatmeal and Fruit the Easy Way

Everyone knows that the Keurig is the easiest way to make a cup of morning coffee, but you can make it a part of a healthy breakfast, too. This oatmeal recipe uses a Keurig to prepare quick oats. One of the best things about this is that many modern offices now have a Keurig in the break room, meaning that even if you didn’t have time to make breakfast at home, you can prepare a healthy breakfast right there in the office in only about five minutes!

To prepare this recipe, fill a bowl with quick cooking rolled oats. Simply put your bowl under the Keurig (we’ve shown the Elite model, available from Target for 109.99) and set it to the largest cup size. Once the water has filled the bowl, stir well and cover the bowl for about five minutes. This will cook your oats. Now, to give them some flavor without making them unhealthy, add a small teaspoon of Stevia or, better yet, some fresh fruit. Blueberries are great for adding a bit of sweetness while also adding the benefit of antioxidants and vitamins to an already healthy breakfast!

Breakfast Tacos

We all love tacos, and breakfast tacos are no different. This recipe is prepared with liquid egg substitute to help eliminate some calories without eliminating flavor, and it can be made in a total of ten to fifteen minutes. Better still it is incredibly delicious and doubling or tripling the recipe to make a healthy breakfast for the whole family couldn’t be easier, making this one of our favorite healthy breakfast recipes!

To make this recipe, you will need a nonstick skillet. We’ve shown the Love, Peace, and Taco Grease skillet from the Guy Fieri collection, available from Target for $19.99. Take two corn tortillas and top each of them with about a tablespoon of salsa and a tablespoon of shredded, reduced fat cheese (we prefer cheddar, but you can pick your favorite). Heat the tortillas, covered in this mixture, in the microwave for about 30 second or until the cheese melts. While the tortillas are cooking and waiting in the microwave, put some nonstick spray on your nonstick skillet and heat it over medium heat. Add in your egg substitute and stir the eggs until they are fully cooked through. This should only take about ninety seconds. When your scrambled eggs are done, simply divide them between the two taco shells. That’s all it takes to make this healthy, delicious breakfast! And if you are looking to save on this or any nonstick skillet (or any of Target’s other great items), don’t forget to use one of our Target Promo Codes.

Energy Rich Smoothie

Smoothies are a great way to take breakfast on the go, and much healthier than a giant mug of coffee. This smoothie recipe is definitely among our favorite healthy breakfast recipes, and it is a great way to jump start the day. Packed with antioxidants and nutrients as well as protein while low in calories and fat, this is definitely one recipe you will want to save, because it tastes delicious! If you’re looking to take your smoothie on the go, you’re going to need a travel mug, and this great Vera Bradley Travel Mug in Plum Crazy ($19.00) is a stylish way to take your smoothie to work! Better still, use our Vera Bradley Coupons and save even more!

To make this great smoothie, you will need a few ingredients. You will need one and a quarter cups of orange juice (we recommend the kind with calcium added), a banana, a half cup low-fat plain yogurt, one and a quarter cups of frozen berries, and a tablespoon of honey for added sweetness. Once you have your ingredients together, simply put them into a blender and put on the cover. Blend the ingredients until they are fully mixed and creamy and pour into a glass or travel mug and enjoy!

If smoothies are your thing, you will find that there are many healthy and delicious breakfast smoothie recipes out there. Smoothies are great because they take moments to make, yet they can provide you with nutrients and energy to last until lunchtime with ease. If breakfast smoothies are for you, you are going to want a quality blender. We recommend the Hamilton Beach Smoothie Start blender, available from Target for only $39.99.

With so many healthy breakfast recipes available, there is really no excuse for skipping breakfast. Although it has been said so many times that people have stopped listening, breakfast really is the most important meal of the day and it can impact everything from how you perform at work to your mood and energy levels. Take the time to find recipes that you enjoy, whether they are smoothies, oatmeal, breakfast tacos, or something different entirely.

There are many options available to you, and finding something healthy and quick to enjoy every morning can really change the way you live your day. Healthy breakfast recipes are a great way to kick start your morning, and our Target Promo Codes and Vera Bradley Coupons can help you save big on equipment and accessories to help make sure you never go without breakfast again!
