Summer is here and while we wish we could waft languidly through the hot season, all kaftans and cocktails, there’s a little thing called ‘work’ standing in our way. Holding out for your holiday seems like an impossible task when every day is beach weather in your hometown.

To make the 9-5 a little more bearable, we’ve compiled some key petite office style looks for easy breezy chic. Whether you’re in the creative sector or corporate domain, we have a seasonal outfit that works. Think punchy colours and lightweight fabrics.

Opt for simple shift dresses that will see you through from day to night. Forgo your tired winter pumps and jazz things up with some statement shoes. A large tote bag can house all your work essentials (as well as bikini and towel for that after work dip!) Make the most of your wardrobe to make the most of the weather.

A new season brings with it a whole host of new styles and trends. With February just around the corner and Spring/Summer collections arriving in stores, we pick our favourite new looks for petites. These looks are flattering, yes, but also bold and daring. It’s time to make a fashion statement.

Arty – Prints Charming

Spring-summer-trends-for-petites-art

Delicate brushstrokes, big daubs of paint and wafting flowing canvases…this spring fashion takes us to art school. From images of landscapes and portraits on dresses to interpretations of paint splatters and texture, this trend is about colour and vibrancy. It works for petites because it is a bold and confident look-the patterns immediately injecting sophistication to any outfit. Throw this Chanel-inspired top over a simple skirt for instant fashion kudos or pair this beautiful monochrome skirt with a sleek black top. Like all art, the possibilities of this trend are endless.

Trendy-petite-clothing-Nic-Zoe-top

NIC+ZOE, ‘Ombréd Angles’ Top (available in Petite), £81.93

 

Trendy-petite-clothes-topshop-skirt

Topshop, Petite Mono Floral A-Line Skirt, £38.00

 

Trendy-petite-clothing-Harlowe-Graham-top

Harlowe and Graham, Lace Inset Top (available in Petite), £43.53

 

World Traveller

Spring-summer-trends-for-petites-traveller

The world traveller girl is adventurous and feisty. The clash of prints, textures and ethnic accessories suggests she has just returned from globetrotting. A safari here, a market there, creating a look that’s effortlessly eclectic.

This look works for petites because of the variety of accessories and patterns. Nod to the trend (and accentuate your waistline) in this fabulous red Aztec mini or throw this floaty kimono over jeans and flats. These pieces are bursting with character and zest and will breathe new life into your wardrobe (whether you’re trekking through the rainforest or just trekking to the office.)

Trendy-petite-clothing-New-Look-kimono

New Look, Petite Black Tribal Print Contrast Hem Kimono, £14.99

 

Trendy-petite-clothing-Ann-Taylor-top

Ann Taylor, Petite Graphic Zebra Print Split Neck Top, £64.22

 

Trendy-petite-clothing-New-Look-skirt

New Look, Petite Red Aztec A-Line Mini Skirt, £19.99

 

Good Sport

Spring-summer-trends-for-petites-sporty

This season designers ran wild with the sporting theme offering us a champion array of sporty pieces. Think streamlined, sleek and classic. Why does this trend work for petites? It gives edge to your casual wear while highlighting your figure. This asymmetric maxi dress is leg lengthening with a flattering cut. Its simple design is perfect for the trend. A midriff grazing hoodie is not just for the gym; wear over a simple skirt for understated cool. Everyone’s a winner.

Trendy-petite-clothing-Drop-Dead-hoodie

Drop Dead, Language Barrier Crop Pullover Hoody, £45.00

 

Trendy-petite-clothing-Bebe-dress

Bebe, Petite Asymmetric Maxi Dress, $98.00
