    I am a 191cm tall bald dude... Not sure why this is in my suggested, but okay. Now I know how to dress in a midi skirt if I ever bodyswap.

      You can wear a darker top, and, when you wear a black A line skirt it can camouflage the tummy.

    I never feel like tucking looks right, so I end up just wearing a pencil skirt and a top that flows out just enough to skim the line of the skirt. But I also prefer to wear skirts so the band almost sits at the empire waist. I think I am pretty short-waisted. 😂 I wonder why tucking never looks right on me...

    • @teresacarle294
      @teresacarle294 2 роки тому +1

      🖤Tend to wear more skirts too.
      ⏳Have an hour glass shape w/a long waist & large breasts, so I stick with mid-rise. Otherwise, it can look like I have no torso😖.
      😉Do get that it's more flattering, but I'm 🚫 a big tucker either🤣. Not unless I am going to wear a traditional suit set. In which case, I might choose Chi's 1st more body conturing (not tight) wrap top option here to tuck in my navy pleated skirt underneath it's coordinating cropped blazer.
      🤍Now, Chi's beautiful white top in her 2nd example was a bit blousy & romantic w/puffy statement sleeves. It's not my style😔, but I could swap it for:
      (1) a slightly oversize feminine button front blouse & tie the hem @ the waist instead of tucking; or
      (2) a graphic t-shirt knotted @ the waist instead.
      🤗 Both will give a cropped impression similar to the full tuck for the same ideal 1/3 + 2/3 proportion without any of the awkward discomfort.

    I just had a midi skirt hemmed to about where it would hit on a tall girl. I felt like a 1st grade teacher at the length it was at before, feels much more sophisticated now!

    Hi, love your videos, thank you.
    I always feel like I can’t wear long skirt or dresses because I can’t wear high heels because of knee problems 😔😔😔, so the cloth doesn’t look elegant on me😔😔.
    I always wear jeans and tennis shoes, so tire of it.
    I’m 5’1 130 pounds.
    Please make your videos longer🙏😊

    • @PetiteDressing
      @PetiteDressing  3 роки тому +1

      Hi Bertha- yes, I'll be making weekly videos which are full length! I'll have some full videos coming up in near future on how to wear longer skirts/dresses even without heels, so, stay tuned!

    I am not brave enough to 'tuck in' my tops - I have a permanently bloated belly that I am conscious of. Any ideas - apart from going on a diet and doing sit-ups? 🤷‍♀️

      I think one piece, midi dress, might be better in that case.

    I love those flowing pleated skirts but I can never find them in a matte finish…they are always shiny or shimmery, why!

    • @teresacarle294
      @teresacarle294 2 роки тому +1

      🤍 Me too. 😖The matte version can be challenging to find🔎. Those shimmery, shiny pleated skirts seem so Atlantic City🎲🎲〰️& not my personality. However, I noticed that both Trinny & Alyssa Beltempo love to style them.
      😉They're slowing bringing me around to that glitzy possibility.
      🤗Meanwhile, I did finally find a matte pleated skirt in navy blue. It came w/a darling double breasted cropped blazer that I usually leave open. 💗For casual fun, I've paired the set w/a body conturing pink tank top & matching pink leather Van slip-on sneakers.
      😁Going to be on the look-out for the wrap top Chi featured here...
