I'm back today with a little written review to complement my latest YouTube video. If you didn't know, I recently started up a YouTube channel dedicated to finding the best (and sometimes worst) petite finds for the season.
I post a new video every Wednesday and today's video was an Amazon haul sharing some petite wins and some misses as well.
You can see the items and shop them via the links below, but let's do a little written review. Just like in my video, I'm going to share my thoughts on each piece with 4 criteria in mind:
- fit
- quality
- style
- price

Color: Hummus
Size: XXS
I was not impressed by this trench coat, especially for petites. It's supposed to be an oversized fit that is all the trend these days, but from the sleeve length to the light material this is not a piece I would recommend for petties.
Color: Green
Size: 24
I was massively impressed by these pants the moment I pulled them on. They're definitely a spring/summer denim in that they're lightweight and have a bit of a stretch. You can see in the YouTube video how they actually fit, but for petites, it's pretty much perfect.
They have a fun drawstring waist tie - in addition to the tradition button and zipper - that gives them a subtle nautical twist.
Buy your normal size in these pants.
Color: White
Size: XS
While I did like the practicality and length of this dress, the overall fit scored lower for me. With the large tennis ball sized pockets and cut out in the back I just felt like the fit of this dress didn't work well for my body type.
The length, however was really great and the dress did come with a matching pair of biker shorts to wear underneath the dress.
Color: Medium Denim
Size: XS
I really loved this dress and ultimately scored it very high on my rankings. It was comfy, fit super well, and was a very flattering fit and length for a petite.
Color: Green
Size: XS
For just $17 this is an exceptionally flattering top to wear either for an athleisure look or with a dressier outfit. It's made with the softest, slightly ribbed fabric that felt like a second skin. Definitely a worthy buy for spring/summer!
Color: Black
Size: Small
Another worthy budget find from Amazon, these slightly flared yoga pants were a surprise in the best way. They were a little big in the waist so I would recommend buying one size smaller or your normal size for these, but they were a comfy, easy style of pant to wear - even for a petite.
