Firstly, it is a good idea to do a visit to all your favourite shops at home and see just what is in latest fashion, and the colours that are most propular, before you buy in Bali.
Secondly, try to remember what you saw once you get to Bali as it is easy to get a distorted brain and end up buying things that look really great there, but then you get home and think "Why on earth did I buy this? I will never wear it!"
If you don't want the hassle of trying everything on, take measurements of yourself and your favourite garments before you go. Then you can just whip out a tape measure and consult your notebook and know instantly if what you are looking at will fit you or not.
Like everywhere in the world, you will get a greater range of clothing to choose from if you are petite. Have fun!
