I started using Poshmark several years ago, and since then, it's gradually become my favorite app for buying and selling secondhand fashion. I'm a huge fan of the secondhand market in general--I even bought my wedding dress from a resale site.

The Perfect Lululemon Tights for Petites
There's very little activewear out there that's marketed as "petite", but that doesn't mean there aren't lots of good options. If you ask me, 7/8 length bottoms are the BEST length.
