Very good choices.</p> <p>I like petite tops, and I am 5'9"! Petite sizing is not just length; it's all over more "dainty" in proportions. So they tend to fit smaller shoulders and shorter waist well. I usually can't wear petite long sleeves, but one of my favorite blouses is a petite short sleeve. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-little-dilemma#post-1970822 Wed, 31 Oct 2018 16:05:14 +0000 Elizabeth P 1970822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>The joggers look great on you.</div><div><br /></div><div>I discovered when shopping for my wedding dress that I was a petite.&nbsp; LOL...never would have thought to put "me" and "petite" in the same sentence... but there you go.&nbsp; I'm 5'6" but short waisted, which of course instantly explained why fitted dresses always had the waist sitting on my hips.&nbsp; Other than that, the only time I've ever noticed it in retail was when I bought a coat from BR a few years ago.&nbsp; I loved it, but it felt big, yet it fit, all at the same time. I posted here and somebody suggested trying a petite, which turned out to be perfect.&nbsp; <br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-little-dilemma#post-1970810 Wed, 31 Oct 2018 15:46:29 +0000 Colette 1970810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The joggers look good. I like the way you styled them with the blouse. I have a pair that I always forget about. I only wear them very casually with a T-shirt, jean jacket and sneakers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-little-dilemma#post-1970786 Wed, 31 Oct 2018 14:37:32 +0000 Angie 1970786@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The joggers look adorable - just like you.

Thumbs up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-little-dilemma#post-1970754 Wed, 31 Oct 2018 13:13:49 +0000 Bijou 1970754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that as we move into Summer, jeans will not be a priority, so these tencel pants are going to be versatile. They look great on you, really nicely styled and a perfect casual look for your busy days. It is interesting, I am 5 foot 5, and have never tried petites clothing, although on occasion I have bought children's clothing in size 14 or 16. One of my favourite knits, in finds,&nbsp; was from the girl's department. Angie does say "leave no retail stone unturned"! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-little-dilemma#post-1970748 Wed, 31 Oct 2018 12:39:10 +0000 LaPed 1970748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tencel joggers sound perfect for spring and summer, and they look great on you. Outfits 4 and 5 are my favourites in this batch.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-little-dilemma#post-1970732 Wed, 31 Oct 2018 11:25:11 +0000 unfrumped 1970732@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thumbs up from me! I have always loved joggers in nice fabrics ( certain one anyway) because they work for my body type and I love “ juxtaposition” of sporty and classy/ dressy/ feminine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-little-dilemma#post-1970730 Wed, 31 Oct 2018 11:11:33 +0000 Jessikams 1970730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, I just love Tencel and especially in pants. These all look good but I especially like the camel and black combo (probably just because I’m in fall season here).</p> <p>Interesting on the petite shirt fits. I have a really long torso but I am short— I want petite short arm length but regular length through the body. Especially in coats, it’s a problem. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-little-dilemma#post-1970717 Wed, 31 Oct 2018 10:42:14 +0000 Cee 1970717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No criticism required at all, Juss' :D&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-little-dilemma#post-1970713 Wed, 31 Oct 2018 10:31:51 +0000 rachylou 1970713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they’re great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-little-dilemma#post-1970712 Wed, 31 Oct 2018 10:29:59 +0000 Kathie 1970712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The joggers are fabulous! Love how you styled them in 2-4, with the black polka dot top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-little-dilemma#post-1970710 Wed, 31 Oct 2018 10:25:55 +0000 jussie 1970710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello all :).<br /> The last couple of weeks has seen me gain a bit around my tummy. Oops. Anyway... my absolute favorite blue jeans have always been quite tight and with no stretch. I think that’s actually the secret to why they looked good; because they sat very firmly and didn’t stretch out or wrinkle/pull across the thighs.... however now they’re a little too tight for comfort. And I’m just not up to jeans shopping right now both in terms of time, money, and also the weather is warming up so I won’t really need them for ages.<br /> So I’ve purchased two inexpensive pairs of “utility joggers” in Tencel (one olive one navy) and am wearing them for casual, or my stitch knee leggings, or my looser-fit white and blue print jeans.....<br /> I figure it’s a least a step above track pants.....<br /> What do you guys think? For school and kinder runs, the park, cleaning, visiting local friends, playgroup, watching kids sports, non-fancy shopping, dog walks etc<br /> Just to note, the sweater in pic 1 is navy not black, and the black shirt in 1-3 has little white polka dots.<br /> Oh, and another thing. I have recently purchased two tops (the black polka dot shirt is one of them) in a larger PETITE size... so two sizes bigger than normal but in petite... but that seems to be giving me the fit I like. Very interesting because I’m five-six. Maybe I have a short torso?<br /> Comments and critique welcome... extra points for any styling ideas for utility joggers :). Thank you all. </p>
