Another female on our teams (colin_s wife, maggie) is super teeny tiny, I think thats where she ended up finding her bdu's at. Otherwise get smalls, roll or tuck the cuffs, wear a belt or have them altered. It's pretty easy to take the seams in on jackets, I did that to my multicam set - good luck!
Maggie will be happy to hear that C.G. DarkDream my wife is a bit taller than you at 5'6" and she weighs in at 110 lbs, a boys large Woodland BDU (found at a surplus store) fit her perfectly and she also has a set of small Daves Surplus Multicam (custom build but same as North American sizes) and that's a bit big on her. She has to tuck in the pants into her boots and roll up the sleeves but chest and waist size was good.

I couldn't find any vests that fit her comfortably and eventually we gave up and decided to run a belt/drop leg loadout. As suggested earlier a small PACA which is adjustable should fit you but it's just body armour, no pouches for stuff (I carried all her stuff before lol). She wore something similar so it didn't "hurt" as much.
