Love! As a fellow petite person, can you share where you’re finding belts that fit? I always find them too long, too wide, too overwhelming, etc.

Great question! Finding the right belt is always an adventure. :)

My favorite, most affordable option is J.Crew's classic belt. I'm wearing it in many of the photos in this post and find it to be true to size. I actually wrote about it in my post about Lisa Aiken today (she loves the belt too!).

Another favorite are belts from Isabel Marant. Her Zap leather belt always feels like a nice, smaller size. You can buy it in various colors at places like Netaporter and MyTheresa.

If you want more of a splurge, Khaite decided to add more size options to their belts this year which is great because previously it was just 2 sizes - XS / S and M / L. I'm wearing the Benny belt in black suede and silver in one of the pics above. It looks like now it comes in black leather instead of suede but there are also more combinations available.
