Distraction-Proof

Noticeable Neckwear
"Love this cute, quirky look! The collar embellishment keeps the attention up top and away from my heavier, lower half. I’d probably belt this to accentuate the smallest part of my waist and wear nude heels to elongate my legs even more since I’m petite."
Retro Peter Pan Dress, House of Stella

Tone Conscious

Harken Back
"Love the hamsa vibe! Gold jewelry looks better on warmer undertones - and long pendants keeps the eyes moving up and down (every little bit helps for short, petite frames!)."
Hand of Fatima Necklace, Urban Alchemist

Say My Name

See, Love, Buy
"Saw Tracey rocking this sassy booty/mule hybrid during the shoot and fell in love! Nude ANYTHING elongates my shortness, and gives the illusion of a longer, leaner frame. And I love the eye catching details – gold cap toe, camel leather piping at the back, and substantial (read: non-teetering) stacked wooden heel!"
Wooden Heel Mule, Ruia

Cinch It
"Pear-shaped gals need belts like good food needs wine. The skinniest part of our waist is the saving grace of our body shape – accentuating it highlights its thinness while complimenting our curves. I’ll definitely put versatile belt like this to good use."
Tassel Belt, Callalilai

Sunny Side
"Wayfarers look good on almost every face shape – mine is long and oval so a larger frame that extends at the corners balances me out."
Wayfarer Sunnies, Dicks Cottons

Waisted Wishes
"Work – and pear-shape – appropriate. Subtle eyelet pattern, hits the smallest part of the waist, and dark to minimize the bottom half. Tuck in a loose, flowy blouse, throw on a long, pendant necklace and pumps and I’m good to go."
Eyelet Pattern Pencil Skirt, Jade's Closet
