I'm 44 years old, but look much younger (about 35), very petite, I'm 5-2", 98 lbs., fit and healthy, single, with no kids and I don't know what to wear anymore!

Junior sizes (XS, 1-3) fit me best, but of course it's reached the point where often the junior clothes are too youthful to be age-appropriate.

I end up under-dressing all time in comfortable clothes.

I want to step up my wardrobe, but don't know where to shop to find clothes that will fit me and most importantly be affordable. I'm on a tight budget.

I have found that department store petites are so ultra conservative and are cut for heavier petite women not slim ones.

I'm looking for modern, sexy and youthful -- but not TOO youthful.

Can anyone offer any advice?

Thanks.
