Petite Models are the focus at the "Model Life" book party



Isobella Jade is known as the tiniest working model in New York City and is also an advocate for petite models. Jade has released a fashion illustrated graphic novel "Model Life: The Journey of a Pint-Size Fashion Warrior."

Long before Tyra Banks allowed itty-bitty models on America’s Next Top Model Cycle 13this fall, Isobella was advocating about being a height challenged model. Known as the go-to-girl for modeling tips, she speaks weekly on her popular podcast radio show Model Talk on Blogtalkradio.com, daily on her blog http://Petitemodelingtips.blogspot.com, and often through video guides. Isobella’s memoir Almost 5’4" is also about her experiences as a shorter-than-average model.

This Thursday in SoHo in NYC, at the "Model Life" book launch party, 5 petite models will be shoe modeling during a live photo-shoot to co-side the signing, proving height isn't everything in modeling.

Tonight on Isobella's radio show, at 9pm EST, Model Talk the petite shoe models will speak out about being petite, and striving in an industry focused on the tall, and how the shorter-than-average model can beat the odds.

Hey PF! Fernanda Carneiro is back!

Hi Petite Fashionistas!
My name is Romi and I'm Fernanda Carneiro's new intern. I'm new to PF but not new to petite fashion. I'm 5'4" and had a really fun time looking through all the other petites mentioned on PF.
Anyways, I'm here to update on some of Fernanda's most recent activities:

In the beginning of October, LA Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa held a press conference that announced the Fashion Angel Awards Emerging Designer winners in support of LA Fashion Week and the Los Angeles Fashion Industry. The Fashion Angel Awards Emerging Designer is a contest judged by fashion notables like Nony Tochterman of Petro Zillia, Nick Verreos of Fashion Runway, Jeffrey Sebelia (winner of Season 3 Project Runway), Louis Verdad and Vanessa Gonzalez. Designer Randolph Duke presented the award. There were 3 winners, one of which was our very own Fernanda Carneiro! Each winner participated in their own fully-funded runway show in mid-October during Los Angeles Fashion Week.

Check out some of the photos and links from the press conference and runway attached to this post!!

Itsy Bitsy Bra Bar--Bargains of the Week!


Happy Monday!

As many of us start stressing out about how quickly the year is flying by and with only a few weeks until we all start desperately shopping for our loved ones (or ourselves), I thought I would highlight some great bargains that would also be great gifts.


The black chemise show comes in champagne also (size small), and is on sale for $15.99.







This toffee Swarovski crystal earring is just $3.99... there are many jewelry deals on our site.

Hope this gives you some ideas for yourself or your BFFs, sisters, mothers, girlfriends, and even the teenagers in your life who would like some of the jewelry accessories or PJs.







Best,
V.

However, not all brands fit all body types. Tomima Edmark, lingerie expert at HerRoom.com, has the picks for each body type. Here are the ones for petite women.
