Jamie Chung Shows Us The Perfect Dress For Petit Women


Being 5'4" and 110lbs can be great for crawling into tight spaces, like into the back seat of a two-door sports car, but for other things such as wearing a dress it can prove to be quite difficult. Some dresses can you make look stalky, others short and others still just plain miss-proportioned. Mini-dresses is something of a "MUST DO" for a person of my stature, it can make your legs look long as well as me as a whole taller, but what happens when you're not the person that is easily moved to wear the mini-anything? Because of this dresses and skirts have always been a sore subject in my wardrobe maybe that's why I have so many pants.

When I saw Jamie Chung in her average asian petit stature donning the perfect dress for her physique I made a mental note. Plunging v-neck with a below the knee hem and mid-waist rusching. Drawing the eye to the middle made her look longer and very well-proportioned.


My Long Ago Grunge Days Haunt Me


I remember when Winona Ryder was the IT girl.  Dazed and Confused and Reality Bites were the movies that imitated current life... kind of, or so we wished. Doc Martins, cardigans and makeup free faces with only bold red lips were the hottest thing. These are the things that I remember when I see the printed dress with lace trim from Zara, does it make me want to buy it and relive those moments? Umm... yes.
