Thank you WHBM for sponsoring this post.
I think there are two kinds of people – the ones who love to wear a lot of black and have a closet full, and the ones that barely own any. Up until recently, I was in the second group. I’ve always been one to wear a lot of whites, tans, and colors – but always shied away from black. I set out this year to change that and the more I embrace it – the more I love it! If you’re like me and looking to add black into your wardrobe, here are three outfits from White House Black Market that are petite-friendly.
3 Ways to Wear Black with White House Black Market
All Black
In my endeavor to add a little black to my wardrobe, I’ve really started to gravitate to all-black outfits. It’s known for being slimming, but it also makes you look a little taller and I can use all the help I can get! Go for a pair of wide-leg trousers that skim the ground and you’ll look even taller! In the short length, these trousers are a perfect petite length that you’ll love to wear with black, but also with a wide range of tops and blazers.

Leather Leggings
Leather leggings are another great way to go chic with black! They’re comfortable, while still dressing up an outfit. This pair from WHBM has more shine to it than my other pair, which gives them an even dressier vibe. Although they’re petite, they’re a little too long on me, but they still work well with boots. I paired it with a longer cardigan layered with a sweater in the same color. I didn’t have any on hand, but a pair of OTK black boots would look great with this outfit as well! I’m wearing both sweaters in Petite XS and the leggings in Petite 0. I’m typically the smallest size in most places, but I’ve found that I need to size up in most petite things from WHBM.

Little Black Dress
Of course, the easiest way to wear black is with a little black dress! WHBM has a great collection of petite dresses, especially if you’re looking for an occasion dress you’re willing to spend a little more on. I’m wearing this dress in Petite 0.

Wearing black always makes an outfit chic and sometimes gives it a little edge – you can’t go wrong in my opinion! If you’re interested in more petite-friendly options, check out the first post I wrote about the petite selection at White House Black Market here.
