Hi! Welcome to Curves Petite!

Thank you for stopping by! I created this site to help fill a void in the fashion blogging world: for curvy gals who aren’t XS nor plus and 5’3″ or less. I follow so many petite fashion blogs but their figures were so slender and tiny that the only thing we had in common was our height. I would try to purchase the same pieces, and the styles were not flattering on my thicker frame. Following curvy blogs, the gals were mainly tall and plus size. What was a gal for me to do?

So here we are. I know there are a lot of girls out there like me… just not represented well in the fashion industry just yet. Being 5’1″ and always thicker than a lot of my petite friends, I have always been pretty self conscious. Until recently, my entire life I’ve been told to lose weight and that I was always “too short” to look good in clothes. As you can imagine, that really hurt a lot and my self-esteem took a hit. Every day I’m healing, learning to love my body, and learning to distance myself from negativity.

Thanks to the blogging world, now all body shapes and heights are getting the positive attention that is long overdue! With all the fashion bloggers who represent so many heights and sizes, we can all turn to someone for a little fashion inspo! I hope that my blog helps all the short gals out there to learn to love and dress their curves!

Xo,

Marikym
