One of the biggest wardrobe staples. The item that everyone has in their summer closet and probably the item we couldn’t live without. Our jeans.
But when it comes to styling jeans – there are certain rules us petite girls must follow. Certain ways to wear, certain styles to go for and cuts to lean towards. So today I thought I would put together my petite girl’s guide to jeans for summer.
Cut
Straight or wide leg jeans are the most flattering if you’re a shortie like me. They elongate your leg and bring attention to the length, giving a much more flattering look.
Dont be afraid to cute your own hem line
A raw hem is IN and thank goodness for that, I can’t tell you the amount of jeans I have taken my own scissors to to give the perfect length / crop. There’s nothing worse than constantly having to roll up your jeans or wear heels to cater to the length. So don’t be afraid to chop them yourself.
Rips
When it comes to distressed jeans or jeans with rips on the knee, always shop from the petite section – there is nothing, NOTHING worse than knee rips that appear half way down your calf. Asos petite do the best selection of ripped petite jeans
Style
Always offset looser jeans with something a bit more tight fitted on top to balance out the outfit and create a more flattering silhouette.
