ALL ABOUT BODY POSITIVITY
I’ve always been short and even now as an adult, I’m only 5′ tall. Growing up, I remember that there were many times when I felt overlooked or inadequate due to my lack of height. Finding clothes that fit was a constant struggle and there are many days when I think what a difference even just a couple extra inches would make! While I am a big proponent of a healthy lifestyle and continuously working on being the best version of you, along the way it’s also important to appreciate all that your body does for you. I love the fact that social media is leading the body positivity movement and couldn’t be happier to see that it’s encouraging women everywhere to embrace and love their bodies!
LOFT has been one of my go-to stores for years now as I have always loved that they carry a petite line and have fashion-forward styles that don’t break the bank. Their sizing has always extended to include Petites, Regular, Tall, and Maternity but the best part is that they’ve even recently expanded to offer Plus!
It makes me so happy to share some pictures from a fun afternoon with one of my favorite friends, Trish. We met as parents in our sons’ preschool class and seriously Trish has the sweetest and goofiest personalities that you can’t help but want to be around! It’s pretty obvious how much fun we always have together as we crack each other up and for me, it’s just such a breath of fresh air when you find someone who doesn’t take themselves too seriously.

Trish and I have pretty different body types — I’m 5’ tall with a minimal curves while Trish is a good 5” taller and has a gorgeous hourglass figure (thank goodness for these wedges that are over 4″ tall! 😂). Nonetheless, we’re always chatting with each about our LOFT finds / outfits (even if it’s just passing by as we drop off our kids at school in the mornings!), and I love that LOFT really caters to every body type in their styles and pormote body positivity!
This dress instantly caught my eye when I saw it hit the LOFT New Arrivals section and am in love with the flutter sleeves and bright white floral print. The petite sizing for me meant that the length hit perfectly just a couple inches above the knee and the waist came in perfectly to add a bit of shape! This ‘flowerbed’ floral print is so perfect for spring and also available as a tee (plus option here and here), a cami shell (how cute is the maternity option?), and even as a pajama set (which I kinda think I need just bought now that it’s on sale! 😊).
SHOP FLOWERBED PRINT OPTIONS
Trish found this super flattering mix-and-match outfit and the fun kaleidoscope skirt print is so perfect for her personality (also available in plus!). I love how the tie-waist on the skirt enhances her curves and the flutter-sleeve top is flirty yet polished.
SHOP KALEIDOSCOPE PRINT OPTIONS
LOFT‘s latest arrivals are seriously giving me all the spring fever! I’ve rounded up a few more of my favorites below.

It’s always such a treat when Trish and I get to chat over some coffee and it’s so much fun to catch up not just on what our kids are up to but also on our latest LOFT finds! I love that LOFT is here to offer styles for women that’s inclusive of all body types and sizes and empowering women to look good and feel good. Shopping should be fun and I love that LOFT is making it so that body type isn’t a limitation!

OMG! I can’t believe I was the most clicked link. Serious dream come true! Thank you!
I love shopping at Loft thanks to you and Sandy’s try on sessions! LOFT has really been great for dressing my post partum body after having our 3rd baby last May. I’m still in between sizes and I’ve able to be stylish without breaking the bank thanks to Loft!

Loft has definitely got some beautiful pieces and I love that they do offer their clothing items in different sizes and fits. Your floral dress is a great pick. The print is beautiful and the dress itself is lovely. How fun is that to get together in a photo shoot with a dear friend! Very cool! Happy belated Easter and I hope you had a great one. Wishing you a beautiful week ahead!

You both look so great in your Loft finds. And you’re definitely coming across taller in those fab wedges. I was actually on the hunt for a list of stores that have petite sections (adding Loft to the list) as I’m 5’2″ and have a hard time finding denim that isn’t too long. Thanks for the help!

Gita says
Girl, I feel you! I’m 4’11” and there are so many times where I bought a midi dress that fits me more as a maxi dress lol. Even petite sizes can be too long for me sometimes. But it’s ok. We just gotta own it, I guess 😉
Ruth says
You both look adorable. Loft does have some really good petite sizing and a great spring collection!

You ladies look so gorgeous in your floral pieces. I am the opposite of you. Having longer legs, things are often too short on me. So annoying some brands don’t make more longer sizes!
