I always get super excited when there’s another option for petites.  Let’s face it, it’s not easy being petite. Things never fit perfectly and alterations have become part of our lives but I wouldn’t change it for the world.  I love being petite!  I was SO thrilled when Express recently launched their petite collection online.  I’ve been secretly hoping this would happen and here it is!

Right now, Express is offering free shipping and returns on any petite item.  How awesome is that?  It’s a great chance for you to try them out in the comfort of your own home.  I’m all about online shopping these days – so much easier.  To make it easier, I’ve rounded up my top picks:

Express Petite Favorites

You can see the full collection HERE.

Classic Trench Coat

A classic trench.  Timeless.  Every woman needs one in her wardrobe. If you haven’t invested in a trench coat yet, you need to and this one is a great option.  Sizing runs true to size and I’m wearing XXSP.  I love the length and color so much.  The cut is very flattering and the quality is really nice.  The sleeves are a tad long on me but that’s an easy fix.

Distressed Jeans

I’ve been into black distressed jeans lately and these are so comfortable!  I’m wearing the mid-rise petite jeans but it also comes in high rise too.  Sizing runs true to size and I’m wearing 00p.  The denim is very soft, stretchy and slimming.  I wore them for an entire day and they didn’t stretch out (yay!).

It’s pretty obvious that I love stripes so clearly this striped blouse needed to be in my closet.  It’s so simple yet ultra chic.  My favorite part is the material doesn’t wrinkle.  This can be worn all year round and extremely versatile.  A great top to transition right into spring!

  1. I haven’t had the bet luck with Express… Their clothes seem to wear a lot faster than anything else in that price range…. Has the quality gotten better?

  2. Wow, I am so excited about this!! I enjoy the more youthful and trendy styles that Express offers, even though I am older but have had a lot of trouble with the fit of their clothes. Especially the necklines tend to dip too low on my petite frame. Also, I find the quality to be so-so but I like to shop there for more trendy, shorter-term items. For some reason for a lot of companies, Petite seems to = old. I do most of my shopping at White House Black Market and Banana Republic for their Petites. It will be good to have a new option! Thanks!

  3. I’m so bummed they don’t have XXS petite size left. I’m considering trying the XS. Do you think it will be a big difference between the sizes? I wish they would restock the XXS.

      • Thanks it might worth trying. Do you know if Express usually restocks on their items?

        • It’s definitely worth trying:) I don’t think they re-stock however since they are offering free returns, I’m guessing some petite sizes could pop back up. You never know!

  4. How petite are you? I wanted the express trench coat and I saw they only have size S left in the petite one that I want. I was trying to look for reviews to see how the fit would be on me. I’m 5’2″, 100lbs, quite skinny. I was surprised when you say said you got a XXSP. Now I’m thinking the S (petite) would be too big on me…
