Wide Leg Cuffed Denim – For Petites
Happy Thursday! Last week on Fridays with Oscar I wore Wide Leg Cuffed Denim and I wanted to share them again today because I am in love with this denim style! If you’re a petite and you think you can’t wear wide leg jeans, think again! With petite styles to choose from, you can find the perfect pair. I also have a new favorite button-up to share with you, so read on!

Wide Leg Cuffed Denim – For Petites
Colette Wide Leg Cuffed Denim
These Colette Wide Leg Cuffed Jeans are nearly sold out in petite, but keep your eye on them because Anthropologie has been restocking the Colette pants since they are such best sellers. I found a few more Wide Leg Cuffed styles in petite, but they are selling out fast. This is fun because it signals that many petite women are no longer afraid to don the wide-leg pant styles!
These pants fit true to size and the denim has a good amount of stretch, so they are soft and very comfortable. I am wearing a petite 25. The cuffs are sewn to the leg at the seams, which I like because I don't have to fuss with getting the cuff just right after washing.
The Short Sleeve Shirt by Rochelle Behrens
(The Shirt by Rochelle Behrens)
I came across this brand, The Shirt by Rochelle Behrens, which boasts a unique design that eliminates the gap that often happens with button-up shirts for women. I am fairly small-chested and even I struggle with the shirt gap. So I was curious. The way they resolve this issue is hidden buttons to close the gap. SO GENIUS! So smart, and effective, that I bought The Short Sleeve Shirt by Rochelle Behrens in both white and black.
The Greta Ballet Flat
(Madewell)
Beth always says that a woman should have at least one pair of red shoes in her closet, so I took her wisdom to heart and purchased The Greta Ballet Flat from Madewell in the most striking red color. I love these because the style is understated which makes the bold red color a lot easier to wear. Such a great way to add a bold color pop to a monochromatic, or neutral outfit.
In Case You Missed It

Kelly, you have become a real fashion model. Love your whole outfit. Everything is so different but goes so well together. All proportions are perfect. That’s hard to accomplish. Your accessories and make up do the trick. Great post!
Thank you so much, Judith! xo Kelly
Can you wear the shirt untucked? How long is it? Appears to have a shirt tail hem?
Thank you for representing us “fun size” gals!
Hi Greek Girl! The shirt doesn’t come in petite so depending on your height, the length will vary. On me, it’s pretty long, falling below my hip (I am 5 ft). It does have a shirttail hem. Hope that helps! xo Kelly
Kelly, the outfit looks adorable on you. That said, the cuffs are so deep for a petite person, it could look like the pants were much too long and were turned up to avoid hemming them. Guess I’m not used to such deep cuffs.
Hi Marilyn, The cuffed denim trend has styles that range from deep cuffs and more modest cuffs. It’s also a great look to create with jeans already in your closet, in which case you can make the cuffs as deep or shallow as you like. Thanks for stopping by! xo Kelly
I just can’t get on board with wide cuff pants. They add so much weight. Something I definitely don’t need! I’ve seen them all over and I haven’t seen one pair that complement. You have such a cute figure Kelly and even on you, weight is added. Do you feel comfortable in them? I’ll probably be ‘booed off the stage’. Sorry!
Hi Kelley, I feel quite comfortable in them! And to me, that’s the most important part of an outfit. Thank you for stopping by! xo Kelly
