Testing petite styling tips – calf length hemlines

21/07/2017

Second up in the testing petite styling tips is calf length hemlines. 
I love me a midi dress or skirt, so this one seemed like a no-brainer to me, I can’t say I’ve seen any petite girls rocking midi dresses which make them look shorter or are just out and out unflattering. 
I think the trick with this one is how you style them. For example, looking back at how I styled the following;

This would have been more flattering if I’d tucked in my top as it would have given an illusion that I was longer than I am. 
I’ve inserted some more snaps of me rocking a midi length dress/skirt to demonstrate how it can work! And how simply tucking your shirt in can make the world of difference! 


Conclusion
This tip has a little bit of advice, but with the right styling you can ignore it  – as long as you’re tucking in your tops and wearing something a bit more fitted 😉
Until next time…

So I’ve been absent on here for months as I’ve So I’ve been absent on here for months as I’ve been working and saving away with this gorgeous man to make sure that we could buy a house and we’ve only gone and done it! We’re now in the process of fixing it up and getting our bedroom ready to move in to, so hope we can get in next week! I’m going to be sharing the whole process on our Tiktok account which you can follow @thealbonrenovation - the first post on there is just a video showing the whole house as it was when we bought it on Friday (it’s changed a lot since then!) - so give us a follow it you love a bit of home renovation! 🥳🥳 #firsttimebuyers #newhouse
When the snow was beautiful and didn’t disappear When the snow was beautiful and didn’t disappear ❄️ what a week it’s been! I’ve been shivering away, heating on full blast and my dressing gown wrapped around me as I work this week - I love the look of snow but hate the cold! Had a day of hypochondria where I had a cough and was convinced it was Covid - but turns out my husband knows me best and that it wasn’t. And that’s probably the most exciting bit of news I l have for you all! How are you all doing?!
Hello all! I’m trying not to leave too much time Hello all! I’m trying not to leave too much time between posts as I have been in the last few months, so I think a couple of weeks is an improvement! On our way home from food shopping last week (highlight of the week!) we decided to stop by one of my favourite spots to take some outfit photos, where the majority of what I’m wearing is second hand (bag, jacket and jumper). I’m getting extremely stir crazy, but at the same time have turned into quite the hermit, I miss going out for lunch with Aaron, mooching around the charity shops and going out to do site visits for work - let’s hope this vaccine helps bring some normality!
