Outfit 1
For my first outfit, I’ve got this Madewell V-neck sweater, which can be dressed up or down. Paired with the Tie-waist skort in this amazing floral print (you know how skort obsessed I am right now), it adds a touch of femininity while still being comfortable for a day in town! The Medium Transport Tote (in this amazing new marzipan leather) is the ideal accessory to complete the look, offering ample space for all your essentials. If you’ve followed me for any amount of time, you’ll know how much of a fan I am of the transport tote bag, and this new color is a much welcomed refresh for summer! It really is the perfect travel tote bag! Also if you’re on the hunt for a great nude heel, these ones are a favorite of mine!
Outfit 2
Sweater: Size Small (sized 2 sizes up for oversized fit), Bottoms: size 23 Petite
The Madewell Open-Stitch Crop Cardigan Sweater is the perfect combination of style and comfort. I sized up 2 sizes for a slightly oversized fit, but you could order true to size if you wanted more of a fitted look! Its unique stitching gives the sweater a textured look, while its cropped length works perfectly with high-waisted jeans like the Madewell Petite Perfect Vintage Wide-Leg Jeans in Vintage Canvas: Patch Pocket Edition. These jeans, with their vintage-inspired wash and wide-leg cut, are both trendy and timeless. And with the addition of patch pockets, they provide a functional and chic touch. Madewell also released the Transport Shoulder Bag in a new color “Summer Dune” just in time for warmer weather. This color is seriously so dreamy! If you love an all beige look like me, this outfit is for you!
Outfit 3
Outfit 3 features the Madewell Textural-Knit One Shoulder Sweater Tank. The sweater tank's unique and stylish one-shoulder design adds a touch of sophistication while the textural knit material keeps you cool in hot weather - think boucle! It pairs perfectly with the belted high-rise shorts, which are comfortable due to the linen blend material and can be cinched at the waist with the added double belt for a flattering fit. Together, this outfit exudes effortless style that's perfect for brunch with friends or a day out exploring the city. I went with black leather accessories for this look, which I think looks awesome!
Outfit 4
Dress: Size 00
The Madewell Sophia Cami Tiered Midi Dress in dot is the perfect summer dress. The playful polka dot print and tiered silhouette make it both fun and breezy, while the adjustable straps and double tie in the back ensures it's comfortable and customizable to your body. It also has a zipper on the side to help you get it on and off without having to untie the back. This would make such a cute wedding guest dress! I also grabbed The Nadia Platform Sandal in Amber Brown. I wore these heels in black velvet in the winter, but thought this almost nude brown would go so nice in the summer with dresses! The platform gives you a comfortable lift while still maintaining a sleek and modern profile that pulls the whole outfit together.
Outfit 5
The easy pull-on shorts in lightspun fabric are the perfect combination of comfort and style. With an elastic waistband and relaxed fit, these shorts are easy to wear and provide incredible breathability for the summer months. The lightspun fabric also gives them a polished look that can be dressed up or down. Paired with the Kellen crocheted sweater tank, these shorts are stylish enough for any occasion. The Kellen tank is made of a delicate crocheted fabric that adds a feminine touch to this classic summer look. It also has really pretty scalloped detailing along the bottoms, making it a unique knit tank! Shoutout to my small transport tote in woven edition, the cutest little summer bag.
Outfit 6
Outfit 6 features the Petite Carley Wide-Leg Pant in Softdrape. These pants are designed to flatter and elongate your figure with their flowy wide-leg silhouette. The softdrape material provides a luxurious feel while also being comfortable enough for all-day wear. Pair these pants with a blouse for a polished office look or dress them down with a t-shirt and sneakers for a more casual look. I paired these pants with the Saige Double-Strap Sandal in Leather. These sandals feature a chic double-strap design and are made from high-quality leather for a sophisticated look and feel. The leather straps break in nicely, making them perfect for all-day wear. They really work with basically any outfit!
Outfit 7
Top: XS, Bottoms: XS (the top fits snug so I would recommend sizing up if you’re between sizes!)
The MWL Flex Sweetheart Crop Tank Top and the MWL Flex Wrap Skort set is the perfect combination of comfort and style. The top is designed to move with you and stay in place, no matter how vigorous your workout is. The matching MWL Flex Wrap Skort (SKORTS WOO!!) features a high-rise waistband that smooths and flatters your mid-section. The set comes in a variety of colors to suit your personal style, making it a great addition to any active wardrobe.

Finding activewear that actually fits when you're petite is tricky, but luckily Lululemon seems to always have what I need! This haul has the perfect summer pieces for exercising or just running errands - petite approved (I’m 5’2). Plus this butter yellow color might be one of the best colors to wear in the summer!
