Romantic Dinnerย 

Got a sexy date night planned for you and your bae?ย  Try a bodycon dress with great details like a faux leather bustier, chest cutout, or mesh side panels.

Or, try a two-piece maxi dress for a modern take on formal wear.ย  This eShakti look is available in custom fit and is always adjustable for height.

Galentineโ€™s Day

Planning a Galentineโ€™s get-together?ย  Try a short, sassy, flirty number like one of these lace dresses from Forever 21+.ย  While F21+ doesnโ€™t offer petite plus options, I personally find that their juniorโ€™s plus size fit works well on petite proportions.ย  These two dresses would likely require no alterations, but could both be taken up at the waist if you prefer a shorter fit.

Daytime Valentine

Need some options for a Valentineโ€™s lunch, your kidโ€™s school function, or work?ย  Try a custom fit-and-flare dress with a cute heart print or a soft blush sheath.eShakti Heart Embellished Cotton Knit petite plus size Dress

What do you think about these options? Even though retailers that offer petite plus options are still few and far between, especially for items like dresses, I rely on altering non-petite options, but petites and custom pieces are always going to work better if you have a smaller frame.ย  Thankfully, petite plus size options are expanding, and if youโ€™re patient, itโ€™s definitely possible to find stylish and fun options!

A Few Petite Plus Size Shopping (and altering) Tips:

  • When shopping non-petites, look for shorter hemlines, even tunics.ย  These can be worn as dresses in many cases.
  • A mini dress might be a midi on you!
  • Sleeveless options are easy to alter as taking up the straps on a sleeveless dress is a simple and inexpensive fix.
  • If you think an item will need to be hemmed, look for plain or simple hemlines or simple linings on sheer dresses for the simplest (and cheapest) fix.

What do you think of my round-up?ย  Anything catching your eye?ย  What are YOU planning for Valentineโ€™s Day?

    Watch those sleeveless options! Sometimes the armhole is ill-placed, and often too big.
