Summer in LA & My Petite Girl Style Tips
Style Travel | August 8, 2016
Many of you guys have been asking me about this outfit I wore on my Instagram last week. I’m super bummed to inform you guys that the jeans and top are sold out. The good news? I found similar options!
Hallelujah for clothes that actually fit, right!? When I’m on-the-go comfort is always key but I like feeling sexy at the same time. Nothing screams sexier than these sleek Steve Madden black heels I bought at Nordstrom a couple of months ago (I got them in nude too!). They’re surprisingly comfortable in my opinion. Imagine if I went with a pair of sneakers. It would totally change the whole look and feel of this outfit!
If you’re wondering about the jeans, they are from AG. I got them when we collaborated over a year ago and I’m still obsazzed. Super bummed that they’re out of stock from what I’m finding online, but found some similar (and cheaper!) steals.
What I’m Wearing:
Jeans: AG Jeans (sold out – shop similar here + here or cheaper here + here)
Top: Brandy Melville (sold out – more playful options here + here)
Bag: Gigi New York (cheaper option here)
Heels: Steve Madden
Sunglasses: Celine (cheaper steal here)
Necklace: Anthropologie
P.S.
There are some things I should highlight about my petite girl style. I have longer legs than torso so sometimes in my photos I come across to be 5’9” when I’m really 5’2”. How do I manage to look so tall? I make Steve lay on the ground and shoot my blog photos looking up. KIDDING!
I found this chart on Buzzfeed’s site and it is so accurate! I think the biggest thing I’ve been able to master is knowing exactly what works and what doesn’t on my body. I can wear everything tall girls wear – except the fit has to fit me. Here are my top 3 Saz tips for petite girls!
- Neckline Matters – If you’re a bustier petite, remember balance is key.
- Don’t get Lost – Look for skirts and dresses above the knee to give your legs a longer appearance. Throw in a little loose crop top action every now and then – why not?
- Tailor Your Bottoms – I’ve don’t this a few times and it was totally worth it. Many petite women will testify that a good pair of bottoms is hard to find. Finding a local tailor can make all the difference.
Have great rest of your week! Don’t forget to stay connected through my blog newsletter. <3

I’m 5’3″ myself so knowing how to appear taller in pictures was definitely needed lol. Thanks girl!
Great tips! I’m 5’3 and sometimes I’ve definitely worn things that make me look shorter!

Im 5’2” as well, and perspective is everything 😀
Yes im 5 foot 1 and 3/4 😂 so its good to see someone who always great near my height xx
yay!! i always knew you were a shortie like me haha. I’m so glad you did this piece, i am in love with your fashion sense..always on point girl!do you think you could maybe do a fall/winter petite guideline? especially winter as I’m looking for a new jacket and some cozy sweaters and stuff for when it comes (sadly lol).sometimes its tough to shop for a winter jacket thats both trendy and doesn’t drown you out when you’re petite! love you xo
Simply beautiful . . . Just the parfait style for the off the shoulders look. Simple, casual and chic! 🙂

I’m 4’11, so finding age appropriate clothing can be tough! Great tips though, I swear by my tailor and knowing what works for my body. Classic is best 🤗
Love the outfit Sazan! I’m a petite girl also and I completely agree with your tips!

Love this! I’m just under 5’4″ and these tips are super helpful. I love to wear high-waisted bottoms as well, as they give the illusion of longer legs.

I love the crop top look! and I agree the heels really do make a big difference versus wearing sneakers. I love being comfortable tho so most of the time I do opt for the flats, but great tips!

Loving casual looks, I think that ‘casual chic’ is the new ‘glamorous’!
