Finding the perfect pair of jeans is a lot like true love – everyone deserves to find it!
Hunting for jeans that don’t heap at the ankles or a pair that you don’t have to hem, is a major headache. The struggle is SO real.
Not too long ago you couldn’t find an inseam tinier than 31″ on any pair of jeans and the skinniest you could get was a 12″ leg opening (Ummm .. excuse me? Does that even qualify as skinny?!). Those days were an absolute nightmare for someone like me with shorter legs, but oh how lucky are we that times have changed! The evolution of jeans are now in our favor.
Panic no more! Here are some tips to help you find the denim of your dreams straight from the rack!
Skinny
Petite women and skinny jeans are a match made in heaven. I love rocking my skinnies with a fabulous pair of heels.
New Look - Petite Super Skinny Jeans C$52.81
Noisy May - Petite Eve Skinny Jean C$73.50
Irina - Skinny Push-Up Jean C$119.95
High Waisted
If you don’t have a pair of high waisted denims in your closet - Go buy a pair. Right now! They’re a staple item in any fashion lover’s wardrobe. They automatically make you look slimmer and add length to your silhouette, heel or no heel.
ASOS - Farleigh High Waist Slim Jeans With Rips C$80.39
Levis - 721 High Waist Skinny Jean C$218.21
Missguided - Highwaisted Super Stretch Jean C$50.53
Cropped
To me anything “cropped” or “shrunken” is an incredibly wise option because it eliminates the need for hemming, there’s no bunching at the ankles and the jeans sit perfectly on your body! One of the best things is the amount of options we have right now, every denim brand has an ankle crop skinny in their collection so the options are endless.
Topshop - Moto 'Jamie' High Rise Cropped Jeans C$108.32
LOFT - Super Skinny Jeans in Kinetic Blue Wash C$93.21
Paige Denim - Transcend Ankle Ultra Skinny Jeans C$256.46
A good cropped jean is the best option for finding the perfect jeans with without having to get any hemming done. But also don’t forget that there are so many brands out there that now carry petite everything.
Happy shopping!
