Petite women, what do you wear to the office? Do you have any Recs for bloggers/ brands for petite? Also, how do you dress for office when it’s freezing cold?

Ann Taylor is always a safe bet - they have a pretty large petites selection (at least the store by me does)

In terms of when it’s cold, I just wear pants. Sometimes throw on a Uniqlo heat tech tank under my clothes depending on the day

Love Bonito is known for making petite specific clothing. I get a lot of my clothes from Uniqlo as well—free to $5 alterations on their pants. YouTubers wise - check out Miss Louie and Audrey Coyne. I overheat easily; therefore, I go with a lighter layer under a thick puffy coat and boots / wool walking shoes. Suit jackets are already hung up in my compact office closet along with one pair of heels.

So neat!

I never contemplated about what I have to wear at work. Business casual and heel pumps is my go to outfit. It's been like that and I have never changed my style.

Understand- it’s just than when it’s freezing cold and snowy pumps are impossible for me, especially when I use public transport
