I live in my leggings for about 3 months in the winter. Dont have any tights, but hose and leggings are a must have staple. I used to hate hose till a trick my dancer friend tought me: get hose 2 sizes "too big" for them to be comfortable and not feel restrictive.
Your channel is the best for petites. You get to the point quickly
The tights with boots tip is right on spot. Not only it creates a continuous vertical line, it also keeps the legs warm in fall and winter. Even in summer, I wear nude pantie hose with skirts for work as the AC is always so cold inside the office. It seems to be taboo for wearing panty hose. I think it is silly. Panty hose makes the legs so smooth you can even skip shaving.
No bears, we, girls, must shave 😂, even if it's so tampting .
Hi. What an enlightening video! Thank you and greetings from London 🇬🇧😄👍🏾
The problem with coats and jackets is that i think most of us have one or two per season and dont really want to invest in more just for certain outfits. I didnt care for the white shirt under the black turtleneck. I do love all your videos though and usually agree with most of your tips!❤
Have never cared for white shirts styled like that either.
I really like the look of the shirt tails showing and am glad it is shown as an option or suggestion. I have been debating on a button up shirt so that I can wear it under some of my sweaters. Seeing it styled on a petite woman has helped me decide to make my purchase. Thank you💖
Underlaying like this helps lightning face and accentuates other parts. Also no need in another accessories.
But I, sadly, doesn't use such layering with shirts , it's unflattering on me, kind of uncomfortable. Turtlenecks with jackets, and other garments with upper layers.
There's faux layered shirts with that look
😊As someone who gets overwhelmed w/a lot of prints (esp. near my face😔)〰️I ❤ a collar/cuff/hem "pop." Looks cool, casual, & chic. Polished, but undone.
Bonus: If you use a more body con cropped topper (like the black crew neck jumper shown here), it can serve a bit as an informal corset too. That helps reduce fabric volume from the button up. ⏳️Hourglass gals gotta size up on button ups to fit over breast & hips, but it can leave bulk around our smaller waist😂.
FYI 70s Mary Tyler Moore Show📺 frequently put MTM in long sleeve patterned button ups w/a more body conforming short sleeve solid tee shirt on top. Of course, she rarely rolled or cuffed the sleeves. She also always tucked the shirt tail of her button up in her skirt or trousers.
While a classic corset feels too bedroom & costumey for me😳〰️love the look of mod streetwear stylists wearing body con cropped tanks (wider straps) over button ups. It corrals fabric bulk while it gives a contempory impression of a corset w/the hem out.
🤫Personally, I struggle w/dickies & other faux layers. Collars always end up askew. Better to stick w/short scarves. I clipped✂️ a fake tank out of a pretty short sleeve blouse too. It added unneccesary boxy bulk & it felt matronly👵.

📩ps TarynTruly a fiesty fab plus size apple influencer popped in my loop. Like Chi, she 💯% convinced me on slimming impression of cropped tops paired w/high rise bottoms (skirt or pant).
She's larger breasted & short waisted like me too. She prefers cropped tanks & sweaters to avoid having to full tuck. It also negates the need to wear spanx to minimize that tucking bulk of longer tees around her tummy too. This ALWAYS bring the focus right up ⬆️ to her waist. It beautifully slims & elongates her lovely form.
She also ALWAYS adds an open topper of some sort as a last layer to finish her looks. If she does close the topper, she uses a belt to bring eye right back to waist level. Brilliant. She's not afraid of using a variety of hem lengths in them either.
I’m 5ft and the tips and tricks you give are amazing for my petite frame! Thank you❤
Can you do a layering video for staying warm in winter if you want to look stylish but stay warm for short women?
Dear Chi !
I love your videos very much.
Thank you very much !
Best greetings from AUSTRIA 🇦🇹/ EUROPE
Good tips!
I am so glad you finally realized the maxi length works for petite....I have known this a while, it works for my 5'2"...just showing that little bit of an ankle area...another length I love is with long sweaters or coats hitting at the knee. I always feel stylish. I have been stocking up on cropped jackets and sweaters while it is still available as finding a great price for petites that 😢is budget friendly is challenging at the best of times. And browns are having their moment, another great thing for me personally. Love watching your videos!
Thank you so much for the video as always! I'm 5'5" with a long torso and short legs so I really appreciate the tips and videos!
This is an excellent and super informative video. This 5'2" woman loves your videos! Thank you for helping us petite people!
Wow…the little changes make a huge difference! Great tips! ❤ Thank you 🤗
You make excellent videos - they are so helpful! They make me change the way I think about putting outfits together. Thank you so much for the amazing work you do!
You help me so much. I’m 5’2 and I know I can’t wear certain items but you’re a Godsend ❤
This was so helpful! Could you do a Short video showing what we can do with the awkward length coats we already own, I am not buying those any more but don’t know how to feel stylish in them.
It sometimes helps if the rest of the outfit is a similar colour, so that you have an unbroken line.
@@AlexLouiseWestYes. In my weather most preferably - black, but here may be accents :bright colorful hat or interesting bag. Also all outfits must look very proportional (volumes) :hats, boots, bags, coats, legs.
Thank you I learned so much!!
I love the way the maxi coats look on you! I've been watching your videos for awhile now and I still haven't been able to find one. Can you tell us where you were able to find yours or where you'd look if you were just starting your search? Also does your clothing line carry them?
Very insightful video. Keep these coming. Especially liked thoughts on coat column length
Great tips!
Hi Chi, thank you for making this video !! You are so spot on!! I have always ran away from the maxi length gorgeous coats because i thought they'd make me shorter, but now that you have explained and showed us how it all works my eyes literally popped out 😆Thank you so very much Chi, I have had my eyes on a maxi coat for a while now... now i know what to do! Much love to you Chi 🌷🤗
So sorry your eyes popped out!
@@gailwilliams5278 🤣🤣 figurative speech 😉
I bought a maxi coat last year due to your suggestion. I love the added warmth and style it provides
I've learned new ideas. Thank you.
Thank you for the rule of thirds. I haven't always paid attention to it; but from now on, I will ❤
Good stuff
Great video! Thank you!
Excellent video Chi. I’m loving your beautiful all white background, so elegant. Great tips and amazing outfit pairing. I especially love the pleated leather mini and sweater. By the way you can definitely pull off tights or no tights with this look. Thanks for such informative advice 😘
Thankyou this is the best petite channel I’ve seen. You have brought so many of the issues I have always found hard for me. I am curvy with very small waist & my legs & arms a little more muscular than yours, I feel too top heavy wearing those shorter bulky jackets, but keep up the good work 😊
Hi Chi great suggestions ou dress amazing thanks who knew 🌟
Great video, Chi!! Such great advice for keeping your winter looks stylish. Well done! 👍 I was wondering if you've ever had a color analysis done and what your thoughts were about it? I've read that knowing what season you are can really elevate your style because you're wearing clothes and makeup that is most flattering to your skin tone, hair color, and eye color. I've also read that it can make you look younger and healthier by wearing these complimentary colors and that your personal color palette never changes. I would really love to know your thoughts on this, especially for us petite ladies. 💖
Personal color palette obviously can change, even if sometimes slightly, with age(more cold, paler skin, loosing color ) , tanning or whitening, changing color of hair.
@@elenamaa5897 when you get your analysis done, they base the pallet off your skin tone, undertones, eye color, and natural hair color. They typically do this with the color draping method to see what pallet is most complimentary to all these things. Your natural skin tone and undertones don't change. If you tan, hopefully via a self-tanner and not from the sun, how your skin tans is also indicative of your natural skin tone. I find the analysis process very interesting.
Can't thank you enough for your valuable petite dressing advice! Can you tell me where you got that fabulous blazer you are wearing at :50 in this video? Looking forword to more fantastic videos!!!
If you don't want to use a shirt, use a *white dickey / fake collar* instead to achieve that preppy look! 1:18
What stiletto boots did you wear with the long sweater and shirt skirt? That are exactly what I have been looking for!
I’m planning on wearing a maxi black skirt and a white short winter jacket. Will this work?
Red shoes or black tights and black boots?
Ms. Chi.......where should a Maxi length trench coat hit on your leg? On you, it's above your ankle and below your calf is this correct?
I'm interested in this grey jacket at 4:20, can you share what it is? thanks!
Please do an indept video for petite women with an hourglass ⌛ figure, i can really use the help. I feel like kost things lpok awkward on me ajdni just dont know how to style myself.

3:21 You look like an astronaut because you wear these black boots!!!
3:21 Can you do a drumroll in these black boots or no?
😍👌👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏
3:43 Why are the boots that you're wearing guaranteed to make your legs look shorter?
3:21 You're as sweet as sugar because you wear these black boots!!!
Please help me decide on shoes....I am a cancer survivor. The Chemo and radiation left me with nerve and bone damage. I cannot wear high heels like before.
Look for shoes with a longer toe, like pointy or almond. It will look just as good at heels. Or try a slim style platform.
@DreamGreatThings I will try that. It's been 4 years of heck. I wear sneakers 24/7 because I also have epileptic seizures, and I can fall easily. That is also added stress. I always stayed away from flats. Honestly, all of this time, flats had never crossed my mind🫣.. Thank you so very much.
3:21 You look like a prince, knight, superhero, robot, or a cowgirl.
No thanks not wearing a mini 😅
Sadly, but it's a reality, - for me it's inappropriate, because of my age and knees , so - also no.
DO NOT wear shirts under turtle neck, it looks disgusting
I prefer v neck sweater
@@user-bi3cv3cz5w vest sweater is good , but not long sleeve sweater over shirt
