    Ive realised I know intuitively as we all do when something doesn’t look right but I wasn’t sure what exactly was wrong or how to change it. That is what I love so much about your channel you are explaining all the mistakes. Have you done a video on choosing the right colour palette for your skin tone and hair? Or choosing a basic minimal wardrobe ? At the moment my wardrobe is like a rainbow and I need to cut it down to things that I can match and that actually go together.

      Jill- Thank you so much, and yes, I'm planning some videos on colors. Color is a huge topic! One can have an entire channel on it because there's so much to talk about and can get quite complicated!

    Dear Chi, congrats for this great video.
    I used to wearing suits all the time at work; as a result, I learned to use its blazers as "jackets" for informal outfits. Well, having so many blazers in diferents, styles, tone of colors, and materials, really enhanced the possibilities to create or completes those outfits. I love blazers because definitely, they dresses up any look.
    You rigth "the eternal problem of the sleeves" unfortunately, we (the pettites) have to face it every time we are purchasing something.
    As usual a great video.
    Many thanks⚘

    It helps to look for blazers that don’t have a sleeve vent, it’s so much easier (and cheaper if you have someone else do it), to shorten the sleeves. All that has to be done is shorten at the cuff, and move the buttons.

    • @PetiteDressing
      @PetiteDressing  3 года назад

      Yes- tailoring is a good option, if the sleeves are plain.

    Great video! I like that you showed how to improve a look without changing clothes. Tucking in a blouse made such an obvious difference. I learned a trick from Alyssa Beltempo’s channel for too long sleeves. She uses a hair elastic to create some ruching that covers the elastic and shortens the sleeve! Your content is great

      Alyssa Beltempo's channel is such a treasure trove of information! I've been following her since I had discovered the world of capsule wardrobes about 5 years ago and use her as an inspiration to keep my wardrobe in a manageable state as far as the number of items in it. I'm definitely not a minimalist but watching her reminds me to make more mindful decisions when adding or editing my closet.

    • @PetiteDressing

      You can wear the same color underlayer for top and bottom, and that will create a column of colors, which is slimming and elongating.

    • @edennis8578
      @edennis8578 3 года назад +1

      I agree. Wear the top and bottom in the same color. Also, dresses with a defined waistline help, especially when the skirt is a-line or fuller. I love sheath styles, but finding them in petite sizes is hard, and if you buy a regular size, then the waistline hits too low and the curve of the hips doesn't hit the right place on your body.
