You are so fun!!! I have a women's size 4 (kids 2). It's brutal to find cute shoes that don't have bells, lights, velcro, etc on them!!
I totally understand how that feels!
its so frustrating!!!!
Iâm size 10.5
Hahaha
@@Bot-fw3te My condolescences. No light up shoe laces on glittery sneakers for you :)
Where were you all my life?!! I donât own a single pair of pumps because they all fall off the back of my one smaller foot đ€Šđœââïž thank you!!
Thank you, Evelyn!
I'm barely 5 ft. And I look for hight and comfort, the nude shoe really does visually elongated the legs. I really enjoy your style đ€đ
So glad to hear Barbara!
I was a size 5, and was so excited that pregnancy elongated my feet to a size 5.5 or 6, which is much easier to find! But now Iâm much older, and we lose the fat cushion on the ball of your foot, which makes heals really uncomfortable. But what I didnât expect was that Iâd also lose the fat/protrusion on back of my heel, which means pumps wonât stay on anymore! Itâs like a kid wearing Momâs shoes. Iâm definitely going to try those heel pads!
Thanks for sharing Linda!
thank you for helping women to dress more pretty, and you make the videos in such a fun way!! love it
It can be so hard to find good shoes! I find either the fit is bad, they fall apart after a month or two, or they donât offer enough support. The âsupportiveâ brands are often not very fashionable. I want to go back to the days where a cobbler would make quality shoes to fit each individual..
So true!
Yes đ
Great explanation of the use of the word ânude!â Iâve had the most success with Zappos. Regardless of my constraints, they generally have at least at least a few pair that meet my needs. Iâve been known to order 8 pair of almost identical shoes from different brands with the hopes that one pair fits. Free returns! Itâs not an eco-efficient way to shop, but if I had to drive to as many stores as Iâd need to in order to try on such a variety (if it were possible, which it is not) it would be considerably worse. Itâs amazing how people who wear size 6 and up think our little feet are so great - they have no idea...
Thanks for sharing! I love Zappos too- great customer service!
thank you so much for the recommendations!! I'm an australian size 2 and I struggle SO much with finding adult-style shoes. The other tips were also VERY helpful to narrow down my search for ideal heel types :)
You're welcome, Charlotte!
Hehe I am definitely not petite (Iâm 5â7) but I have small feet (a small size 6). The heel grips will be very helpful!
I would KILL to have size 6 feet!
4.5 foot size here! Great tips
So glad to hear!
Thank you for articulating my problems, I have tried all your hacks but the longer heel grip sounds like a game changer!
Glad to hear!
i could barely find a right size fitting my 34 feet when I was in New York. However, when I moved to Hong Kong, many brands offer 34 even 33 size. So I can easily find mine.
So glad to hear!
Chi your advice is priceless and your humor is so great! Just listening to you makes me feel taller.đ€
Thank you so much Sandra!
This is my shoe problem exactly, I will try the heel grips, thanks so much.
Happy to help!
UK I wear size 4 and never had a problem here getting that size in a shop. In sales - you can never get size 5s here because they've all sold out unless a really unpopular style. Really surprised to hear that - must be a US thing.
Love all the tips thank you đ I have the same problem with shoes insoles and grips used together help.
Glad you find it helpful!
Thank you for great advice, I love your channel, I am 5â1 and have difficulty finding anything that fits â€ïžâ€ïž
You are so welcome!
I wear a size 5 also. It has been the bane of my existence. Always on the hunt. Unfortunately, shoe manufacturers play the vanity sizing game like clothing manufacturers. Makes me crazy!!!
I wear a size 3.5-4.0 and finding good shoes is so difficult sometimes lol
Heel grips. Thank you so much. I think Iâll get three per shoes. I love those black mules!! How cute are those!!
Thank you for all your wonderful tips.
Glad you find it helpful Susan!
You are really enjoyable to watch! Good work for your content and delivery ;)
Great idea with the heel grips, thanks
Thanks for this video! I never seem to find people who can understand what a struggle it is to walk in flats when you have small, narrow feet. I'm a size 5.5 or 6, which isn't THAT small, but I'm a narrow AA with a AAAA heel. Those are basically impossible to find. I opt for boot, booties, shoes with straps across the ankle, or strappy sandals, since I just can't walk in flats or low-vamp anything. I also like the stick-on Dr. Scholl's For Her Ball Of Foot Cushions, which I find help make heels walkable for shorter distances.
Thanks for sharing! I totally hear your pain.
Fantastic tips đđ
I have exactly same issue. Thanks for the tips đ„°
Youâre welcome đ
Thank you for your great helpful videos! đ
You are so welcome!
Love your videos. I wear a 4.5 shoe and you solved many mysteries and issues for me. God bless u!đđ»
Glad you like them Julia!
Hi Chi, I am new to your channel and I just want to say that I love your sense of humor!
Oh thank you!
Great video! I slip out of most, ballerinas, pumps, and even loafers! I have 7.5+ 8 feet, with narrow heel ( of course đ€Ș!) Even slingbacks fall off! I have tried the heel grips, they didn't work, I think I would need 2 heel grips, đ§so crazy! I will try those plastic ones next. Thanks âșïž
Thanks for sharing Eileen!
Iâm a 5 1/2 AAA, and thatâs after years of ballet!! This was such a helpful video!
Glad you find it helpful! Having smaller feet is not easy indeed!
One of my great-aunts was tiny, under 5 feet tall, and wore UK size 2 shoes (her nickname was 'Dot'). I had some of her shoes and was the only kid I knew who could play dress-up in beautiful high heels that actually fit. I didn't take after her and have exactly the opposite problem. Only last week I had to order shoes online because the largest size that the store carried was too small for me.
Thanks for sharing!!
What great tips! Itâs been stressful
finding the right dress shoes for my high school daughter, size 4.5-5.0. The kids sizes are too cutesy and good quality adult shoes are hard to come by in her size. I now feel more hopeful with shoe shopping for the teenager. Thanks so much Chi!!!
So gald to help!
Try Marmi, Cinderella of Boston, Nordstrom and Rack, 6 pm, and EBay
@@Trenchant468 thanks, will look into Cinderella of Boston!
Kind of hockey for teens. Check on Jildor, though pricey.
Thank you Chi! That was a great video. I have a pair of black suede loafers right now that my foot will not stay in. Might try those grippy things.
So glad to hear!
Thanks for this helpful video. I'm 5'2 ,my shoes size is 5,and it's true, I usually shop online to get my size,though I also got few size5 instore .
Now I'm determined to buy heelgrip! I'm only using heelpads, but still I've a pair of loofer that needs heelgrip.
All the best.
Glad to hear!
I'm 5'4" but my shoe size is 5. Plus I have thinner feet. I can only dream of wearing those sleek bellies and pumps which everyone else rocks so easily đ
I always enjoy your videos, you're very smart, funny and creative. Please keep making videos.
Thank you, I will!
Iâm 5â1â and I wear about a 6-6 1/2 depending on the shoe. Iâd love to wear heels, but Iâve had back surgery and it just hurts me too much to wear them. Iâm also chunkier than I want to, and should be, so it makes it even tougher. Those shoes are all cute.
Actually, Size 6 or 6 1/2 is not really that small.
I wear size 5 or sometimes 5 1/2 if it is a boot and therefore wear socks with boots. I ALWAYS see Size 6 and 6 1/2 shoes all the time, be it Macy's or Target or Kohl's. I do see Size 5 sometimes, but choices are a lot less then if you wear a Size 6 or 6 1/2.
Thanks, I had a really hard time with both, ballet flats and loafers. I have a narrow heel, so I had to put in pads in the heel to make them fit. Once I figured that out I was good. Youâre right it was a struggle. I wear a size 6, I am your size.
At last i found this video.. i sometimes have this problem too.. thanks for your video..
Great advice as always! I have a narrow foot and heel and am a 6 1/2, so it's very tough to find shoes under a size 7 that run narrow. I struggle constantly with this. Thanks for your suggestions for the heel grips.
Thanks for sharing!!
6 1/2 shoe size isn't even small as soon as I am concerned.
I have small feet, I am a 6.5, but I have to size up to a 7 to get the shoes to fit my thick feet. I love mules for the same reason as you... â€ïž
I've used the heel grips that are only the back piece. I am getting the ones you showed in this video! Thank you! I also have the same problem with secret socks...they do not stay up, even those with the sticky piece or elastic on the back.
Glad it was helpful!
Wow I love those shoe grips! Thanks!
So glad to hear!
Where to buy them?
Thank you for the tips. I am size 4 1/2 or a children 2. I always struggle shoes size. Thank you again.
Subscribed đ. Your channel is gold â€ïž
AWW, you are so sweet! Welcome aboard!
I wear european shoe size 32, I guess itâs size 1 in US
I get you when you say that even flats can be uncomfortable when the shoe size doesnât fit.
Sadly, heel pads cannot compensate more than one size. Itâs always better to find the proper fitting shoes.
Heel grips are great for any shoe. I first saw them on a male podiatrist's video recommending them.
Hi Chi, great videos with greats advices.
Shoessssss our eternal issue.
Blisters my problem with shoes.
Many thanksâ
Thank you love!
@@PetiteDressing đđđđđ
The struggle is real! I've spent 40 years of my life walking out of my shoes, like Cinderella, leaving a shoe behind me. I recently found out that Hollywood stars use double-sided clothing tape in the heel to keep their shoes on. I bought some but haven't tried it, yet.
Thanks for sharing!
LMAO THE FIRST PART. Iâm a size 3.5-4.0 and I was wearing a shoe size 5.0 for a year in school and I was convinced it was normal for your heels to escape the back of your shoe every time you walked. Lol. I found a cute pair of boots the other day though that actually fit so I donât have that issue anymore
Thank you for the great tips! I especially like the heel grips in the loafers and the nude heels with nude straps. I also have feet which differ by a half size-what a challenge for fitting. Buying online without being able to try on is hard, too. I make sure to check the return policy and shipping costs for returns and exchanges so that I donât end up paying way more for a pair of shoes this way.
Thanks for sharing Lucie!
You are adorable, smart and very funny!! Love your videos. I so agree with your assessment of ballet flats. Personally, I have never found anything likable about them. Too flat and never fit well.
Thank you Kathleen!!
Thank you for telling us about the heel grips. I tried the stick on grips but they fall off. I am barely 5'0" tall. To have a little bit of a heel, I wear wedge sandals and espadrilles in the summer. They are softer and more stable to walk in. I especially like Clarke's wedge sandals.
Thanks for sharing Zoe- Clarke's are very comfortable!
I just discovered you, Chi, and I think you are magnificent! Thank you so much for sharing your experiences â€!
Thank you so much! So glad you like my tips!
Iâm size 7 and 7 1/2 and have this problem , I wear lace socks with grips on the bottom , thanks for the insert advice I will try them .
5.5 thanks for the tips on heel grips .
So glad to hear Ellie!
Ohh I thought it was just me!!! Thanks a lot, you have a new follower!
Thanks for the sub!
Great video đč, I wear a size 5 and have a very narrow foot, so ballet style shoes slips off, great info, thanks, đ”
Glad it was helpful!
Have you ever tried Tieks for flats? Theyâre a comfortable ballet flat that come in small sizes and look good! Theyâre pricey, but they are comfortable and size inclusive!
Happy styling, my fellow small-foot friend! đ€
Thanks for the tip!
I dont know if their are available in USA, but look for R.Polanski shoes. They are so pretty and in small seizes!
I wish I had small feet. Mine are 7.5 and Iâm 5â2â!
I know- grass always seems greener on the other side...
I understand the pain. Iâm 17 1/2 and wear a size 5/5.5 and 4 in kids .
Thank!
Welcome!
Thanks for your videos with interesting tips for little women. I myself am 4,9 foot and have shoe size 2. Buying shoes in the usa would be a hopeless quest, luckily I live in Europe, in Belgium.There are shoe stores that sell small sizes but those stores are exceptions and limited, I found 2 that sell shoe beginning from size 1.
Luckily, this way I can wear feminine shoes and not to have go barefoot. đ
I am already looking forward to your next videos.
Wonderful!
Please share store names!
I love love your videos! Where have you been all my life? I am a 3.5 and it's almost impossible to get shoes that are not from the kids department
I hear your pain!
Great shoe video.
Glad you like them!
Hi Chi, great video! I wear size 5 too but some brands run large in my experience. Are these heel grips interchangeable or do you have to buy multiple pairs for different shoes?
Thank you Nic! It comes in a pack of 8 pieces that are identical. Since they are clear, I think it's fine to use on any shoe color!
Hi , I am your new subscriber. Thank you so much for this tips. I always have trouble which shoes suits me. So happy to hear from you. I am petit with size 5. Love so much your channel.
End up like Cinderella's step sister đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł you are so funny!
Glad you enjoyed it!

I have the opposite problem - large feet on a petite frame!
Same!
I see!
Great advice i have one foot size 3 and half an one size 4 the heels grips are brill idea đ
Glad you like them!
I am short, petite plus I have very flat
feet with over-pronation. I need support in shoes. Can't wear ballet flats. Can't wear heels.
My best solution is a small wedge for
some elevation. Style of Mary Janes
usually looks & feels best. Or simple
pair of lace-up ankle boots
If you order men's toupe tape on amazon and put the put in the center of the shoe, the heels will not slide off in the back. You need a few stands but it does work. It must be toupe tape since it is very strong.
Thank you for sharing this tip Colleen!
Wow, and I thought I had problems with my small feet. I am going to try the heel grip. I did get the kind that only has the back of the heel piece, but they don't help a lot. I have an impressive library of shoe inserts to make my shoes stay on my feet better. The downside of shopping online is that once does not get to walk around in the shoes before purchase. Every shoe is built differently. Some work, some don't. I do take advantage of free returns on Amazon, and when I find a pair that fits well, I do go back for more! I keep a shoe pantry stocked, because my shoe shopping is "whenever I find a pair that fits" not "whenever I need a new pair of shoes". The former can take weeks and months and so it's dangerous to wait until I need a new pair of shoes before I go shoe shopping.
Where did you get those cuffed blue jeans wore when showing the gril fromazon?
I suppose I'm lucky as a petite woman, I wear a 7.5...which I feel is the most common size in women's shoes, it's always sold out! My problem is that I have a narrow heel and a wide forefoot and need tons of toe space. Edit - Further into the video, those heel grips may actually help me! I could get an 8 and wear the grips, or I may need those for my kids. Sometimes you buy the next size up, but it's TOO big, they will grow into it, but for the mean time? We've tried the just in the heel thing and they don't stay. I may try these!
I have similar foot shape- wider in the front! Sometimes the widest part can feel painful if the shoe not soft enough!
I just love you!
Thank you Bonnie!
Hi Chi love this was funny you said about sister Cinderella shoes and you look gorgeous and more pretty love!! †I find the size that I mostly need and the heel grips are great to wear to protect your feet. I love the pointy toe styles shoes the best and I always like a good mule shoes as well. Have a great day love and you made my day. Thank you love!! â€đ€đ
Thank you love!
Where do you get these heel grips?
I like your purse. Where did you buy that?
Wow, I didn't even know about those shoe grips!
Glad to help!
Will you be adding shoes to the website?
You are funny thanks for this video đđŒđ€
Glad you enjoyed
Totally relatable for those of us with a size 5 foot or below! What brand are those cute pink pumps in the video?
Great observation Rachel! These are from Via Spiga- I adore them!
@@PetiteDressing Thank you! They look beautiful on you!
For comfort and you want a heel ~ kitten heels. Was surprised how comfortable
Hi Judy- I love kitten heels!
HI ..I see your video ..i am from greek and is very dificult to found small size for me.If you know shops where have e shop with petite clouths..tell me..you are super and i like your video.thanks
I love shoes and have the same problem. I have tried the heel grips but found they lifted 'the sock' up from the shoe - has anyone overcome this problem?
Someone suggested for sliding shoes is... fashion tape! Under your heels. Clever.
Even with a size 6 I often run into the fit being a smidge too loose.
I have the same trouble. And besides my feet are thin. They swim inside shoes. I use blisters for toe.
Why there are so many thumps down? There's nothing unlikeable in her videos.
Hi, would like to ask, would wedge shoes be suitable for short people? Because I'm not very comfortable wearing grip heel kind.
Great video - I'm a UK2.5/ EU35 so am off to buy heel grips - any tips for UK based online sellers, as US duties increase cost? Thanks for the advice and the laugh
I got these from Amazon US but I presume they also have a UK Amazon for similar products? Or you could check on UK ebay- sometimes you can find similar products there.
Hi! Thank you so much. Do you buy petite tops from Banana Republic? I saw some cute ones and I'm 5 foot 2. Could you please do a video on tops and lengths?
Yes, BR petites fit me quite well. Sure- that's a great topic!

I once purchased flats with gartered back and shoes gave me blisters at the back of my feet because they rubbed on the skin. After wearing them only 3 times I ended up donating them, better than hurting myself. By the way, do you suggest petite wearing platform shoes? Well not the ugly looking lug sole but the more decent looking platform shoes which would make wearing heesl more bearable?
i love your top, where did u get it?
Maria- this one is from Ann Taylor petites.
"why"đđđ
Is there any magic trick for cut off shoes at front. They always give me nasty blisters on my big toe. I glued one of those foamy rubber supposed to be placed at back of show to prevent feet slippingâŠplaced them on bottom of front and it did save me from a bigger blister but still got some rubbing there almost to develop another nasty painful blister yet. Just glad didnât have to walk much during my niece and nephew graduation. Ouch! Help?!
my 7 year old daughter have opposite problem. Wearing size 10 womens and at 4'7 she is very tall too. Hard to find kids looking shoes
