Hey everyone,
First of all I just wanted to say I’m so glad I was able to host this one. I’ve participated in a few Petite Fashion Challenges before and they were all a lot of fun:) Also, they’re a great way for the petite community to connect. This month, the challenge was to put together a look appropriate for fall using summer pieces like dresses, skirts, shorts, tank tops etc.
Thanks to all of the bloggers who signed up this month. I can’t wait to see all of your entries!
Check out all the entries:
Thanks to all of you who participated!
My entry:
First, I took a white sundress…
Then, I added a long cardigan and belted it. I also added a bright scarf and riding boots to make the look more appropriate for fall. Who says you can’t wear white after labor day?
Fall Version:
Cardigan: Uniqlo
Belt: Jcrew outlet
Scarf: Gap
Boots: Frye
P.S. sorry this post was early (it was supposed to be at 8pm) but we lost our power and wifi from the hurricane so I had to go to Panera to post this!
Absolutely love your look and boots especially – I’ve been looking for a pair of tall brown pull on boots for ages.
Love your fall outfit! I did something quite similar for mine too (summery dress + cardigan) but love the combo you pulled together. Thanks so much for hosting.
Oh wow. I really love your outfit. I was going to use the exact same pieces for this challenge but I ran out of time at the last minute. I am sorry that I didn’t participate. I am still looking forward to see all entries though.
i LOVE your boots!!! great Fall transitioning!
this was my first petite fashion challenge and looking forward to participating in more. thanks for hosting!
Wow! Thank you for going to Panera to get all this up!!
You created such a cute outfit! I almost reached for a white dress to go with my Frye boots, too!! 🙂

Oh! That scarf! I love the pop of color! It’s amazing how throwing a long cardigan over a dress can completely transform it. Great look!
PS…I signed up a little late (totally thought I had already signed up earlier…doh!) so I think I missed making the list. Can you add Alterations Needed when you get a chance? Thanks! 🙂

You did an amazing job! Those boots look so cute with that dress, thanks for hosting!
Great job with the fall outfit! I can see that being worn on a chilly summer night as well : )

Nice! I have a white dress that I haven’t worn all summer yet, I’ll try to wear it with your look for fall.
Btw the link to Elaine’s (Toronto Beauty Reviews) doesn’t work….and please add mine to the list! Thanks 🙂

The best part of your outfit are the color choices. Love the red + brown + gray combo. Thank you for hosting!
Love the brown boots! I’m a huge sucker for anything brown in the fall. I love the cardi, belt and scarf combo! For me, these are the elements that are the most important to create a classic fall look.
So cute! I love that scarf!
Thanks everyone:) I finally got my internet back so I can check out all of your entries:)
@Couture Coco I got these last year and I love them! Frye makes the best brown boots.
@Alterations Needed I know right? I was trying on a bunch of different things and at the last minute, I added a cardigan to the look and all of the sudden it looked a lot more fall like and I love doing a pop of color with neutral looks. Oh and I just added you to the list sorry for the delay.
@Kerry Just signed you up:) Don’t worry about it. Look forward to seeing your entry.
@Lor I just updated the link to Toronto Beauty Reviews and added your link to the site. You should definitely wear your summery dress! Little white dresses go with everything:)
@Cee I love those colors together too. They remind me of fall because they are deep, warm colors.
@Jenn I am too! I am obsessed with brown for fall, especially brown boots. It’s just the perfect fall color and goes with everything.
Liza, thanks for hosting! Love the boots and the scarf that you added. The color combo is great and huzzah to wearing white after Labor Day!
GREAT look! I’m bummed that I missed this challenge – I have some ideas for this one. Oh well. It’s fun seeing what everyone came up with!
@Quest for Fashion Sense Thanks! White usually reminds me of summer but with the deeper autumn colors, I think it works:)

I missed another PFC!?! I totally spaced on the last one. I had signed up but had a family emergency. This time I missed altogether! What a bummer! I like your theme and how you executed it. Love the riding boots!
