(See Angie's blog post today).&nbsp;</p> <p>Also, in the Finds section, I have noticed a lot of lilac popping up. If it is a colour that suits you, it would work beautifully with magenta and black, grey, navy. Examples of some items below -- you might have to do a bit of hunting to see if they come in small enough sizes/ petites. You can also consider scarves.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-start-2#post-1446471 Tue, 24 Feb 2015 14:24:56 +0000 kittyhawk 1446471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joined about a year ago finding that this blog offered information about Petites!!!!! Only recently did I begin to follow all aspects of the blog and have learned so much. Thank you all for such great insight.<br /> I have always had a pretty limited wardrobe at 4'10" and 82 lbs, there isn't much I can buy that doesn't need expensive alterations. However it seems the fashion industry has recently blossomed with petite sizing.<br /> The other confounding factor is a super busy schedule. I have 4 kids still at home, work full time as a nurse (not such exciting wardrobe options!). 1-2 times a week I will wear dressy casual or business casual.<br /> I have done a wardrobe purge. My wardrobe has lots of black, grey, navy. Given how expensive clothes can get with alterations, what are some suggestions for late winter/early Soring items that add a pop of color yet don't linger in the back of my closet.<br /> I would like to build on a great magenta trench coat from Banana Republic last season.<br /> Looking forward to suggestions! </p>
