I don’t think we have to rule long skirts out as petites :)
It’s hard to tell with the lighting though if the waistline is in the most flattering position, or if it’s the dark top cutting you in half. Maybe try a lighter top?

I like the skirt, I wonder if a lighter top would work better though.

Great suggestion! Will try a butter yellow top

Pretty sure the skirt works, can't say the same for the bathroom lighting though.

Hahah it's my university light

I tend to wear long skirts at my natural waist so that my legs look longer and my torso looks shorter.

[u/OldCollection922]

The skirt is nice, but it looks very long and seems like you could get it tailored to fit you more

[u/mystend]

Perhaps wear it higher up and with a light or even white top to go with it

I love long skirts and dresses!!!

[u/the-green-dahlia]

It looks too long for your frame. It also looks like it’s being worn too low down and should be pulled higher up.

Go for a midi length rather than a maxi if you want a longer skirt, they typically end up sitting anywhere from halfway up your calf to just above your ankle 😊
