I Found a Fashion Unicorn from White House Black Market
I have one pair of coated jeans sitting in my drawer that I NEVER wear. They are amazing in every way, except for one thing: they are WAY too long! Like “3-inch-cuff-at-the-bottom” too long. It’s tough sometimes being a shorty. I’m 5’4″ and finding pants and jeans that fit perfectly has been a lifelong struggle. This is especially true when you are talking about a specialty pair of pants or jeans. It’s rare to find them in petite length. Soooo, imagine my excitement when I uncovered this treasure: PETITE coated jeans from White House Black Market. (Cue Hallelujah sound effect and the bright white light). These sexy jeans look like leather, but without the heft of leather …AND without the heavy price tag.
Coated Leather Jeans
You’re welcome, petite ladies 😉
I know some of you have been on the hunt for a pair of jeans like these too with no luck. I’m hoping you will love these coated jeans as much as I do. Did I mention they are also high rise (9 1/2 inches)!! The good news just keeps coming. And, wait for it… they are under $100!
SIZE NOTE: I’m wearing a size 4 petite.
Classic Blazer
A classic black blazer is one of those wardrobe basics you have to have! This blazer has a flattering stretch material and princess seams. It’s the perfect mix of classic and feminine! It will also look as chic with black trousers as it does with these coated jeans.
SIZE NOTE: I’m wearing a 4 Petite. This blazer also comes in regular sizing.
Sleeveless Sweater
I can pretty much guarantee I will reach for this edgy and elegant sleeveless sweater again and again and again. It’s the PERFECT layering piece, but it also looks fabulous on its own. Note the sheer-v detail at the neckline. The fresh detail makes this a ‘not-so-basic’ basic that’s modern and cool! The sweater is also so lightweight you can tuck it into tighter fitting pants and jeans without creating extra bulk.
SIZE NOTE: I’m wearing a petite size small.
Handbag & Shoes
I cannot get enough python print! I could wear it from head-to-toe and be happy, but it’s also really nice to add just a touch of the trendy print. I love how both the handbag and heels are a mix of python and black suede. The bag is quite versatile. You can carry it as a shoulder bag, crossbody bag or clutch.
Now, we must talk about these shoes. They are SUPER chic and fun! The shape, print mix, and texture are all quite unique. They add quite a pop to whatever you are wearing and because these coated jeans are the right length, they frame the heels beautifully. The shoes run true to size and are comfy.
Earrings
And, I wanted to highlight these dainty and elegant threader earrings. They are ridiculously lightweight. You can’t even tell they are in your ears. They are versatile, stylish, everyday earrings that will go with just about everything.
The two-toned sunglasses are also quite fun …and only $29!
