Cool Jeans For Petites And Women With Short Legs By Suzi Kern At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

Short women need an alternative to the dowdy petite size jeans that are available. Here are some ideas to help you cope. I've always wondered where all these women with 34" inseams are hiding? It is almost a joke to think there are that many 6' tall women around. Well here are a few suggestions to make life easier, and get those cool jeans you are looking for.

There are great skinny styles available now, in fact you may have seen them in the fashion magazines, and they are often shorter in length. If they're still too long, scrunch them up around the ankle - it's the chic way to wear them, and they'll stay there because they are so skinny.

Straight leg styles are back, and they look great cuffed. Just be sure that your cuff is not too wide. Pair them with heels or a nice pointy toed flat that will visually lengthen your leg. Also, straight legs are easy to hem because there is no flare to deal with. Or you can wear them longer, just slightly above the ground with your high heels on, and it will maximize your leg length.

To lengthen your line use a vertical fade or a crease down the center of the pant leg. Or, get a clean dark wash. A uniform color from waist to hem will make your legs look longer and make you look slimmer. And please, avoid those super low rises. A mid rise with a slight upward tilt at the back waist is another great leg lengthening trick. Always keep it slim and stay away from wide leg and trouser styles with heavy hem details. They will make you look shorter and wider than you really are.

If these tips don't seem to work for you, or that pair you love only comes in a long length, then pay to get your jeans shortened! It will cost about $10- $15 bucks extra to get a great jean. Choose a flare leg style to start, and once you shorten it 2-3" you'll be left with a great looking boot cut jean.

We realize that petite jeans come in styles you would never wear and can be very frumpy. Some of our favorite fashion forward brands offer short inseam jeans! You should always be able to find them on the web. Try using the "narrow your results" tool on zafu; it will point you to those styles that offer a short length.
