Down Here: Flirty Floral Look for a Day at the Beach

Hello everyone! I am Monica Nguyen and I’m the petite girl of this blog. Do not be fooled by the first picture shown above that makes me look taller than I actually am. :D If you have ever shopped in the kids section because it’s hard to find clothes that fit you properly and as a result you may or may not have been carded for an R-rated movie (no shame)...then you’ve come to the right place. My goal here is to share with you some of my favorite outfits, my tips and tricks for flattering a small frame, and to form a community where we can share suggestions and solutions for those who may be shorter than the average woman. Like my co-blogger Hayon so eloquently put, “it doesn’t matter what size you are. As long as you stand tall and proud, exuding confidence, you’ll look beautiful and powerful.” Amen sister!

This look is perfect for a day at the beach. It’s very easy to put together and is flattering for petite ladies because it accentuates the waist and elongates the legs. It is definitely one of my favorite go-to looks! 

These photos were taken by my buddy Jordan with a Canon EOS 5D Mark III and a Canon EF 50mm lens.
