J.Crew's Stretch Twill Minnie on Shorty Stories


Several petite bloggers have reviewed one of the two Minnie pants available in petite sizes, and many have found that it didn't fit them very well.  For me, I think it's really about finding the right shoe to go with it.  From reading all the other sites, I knew that wearing flats just wouldn't work, even for those who're over 5' tall, so I only took pictures of me in heels or wedges. 



Since the Minnie is skinny, I knew that it would work best with a slightly looser top, so for the first picture, I wore a blue cardigan from Jacob.  The outfit probably needs a little more dressing up, since the cardigan is not too bright and therefore not making the outfit "pop." 




I also have the same cardigan in a bright green, so this time around, I don't need additional accessories.  But do you think this outfit looks too "Peter Pan" with heels? Oh and yeah, the belt probably needs to be centred more.



For those who like the Minnie, yet feel that the length just isn't quite right, there's always this solution - tucking it under boots.  Because the pant is capri length, it makes tucking so much easier - there's no bulkiness like what you'd find in regular length skinnies!

BTW, apologies for the uneveness of the pics.  I think my camera wasn't fastened tightly enough on my tripod, thus creating a slight tilt.  My apartment is actually even!
