The continuing adventures of Michelle, the girl too short to live.

Dear short people of my flist (and beyond): Where do you buy your jeans? (And when I say short, I mean short - If you're taller than 5'3, I don't mean you.) Where do you get pants that honestly fit you: petite sizes, short inseams, etc? A specific store? Online somewhere? Perhaps for not ridiculous prices? I know about Delia's, but since leaving the east coast, it's harder for me to attain their clothes. (And shipping, Jesus Christ.) And I'm sure as hell not going to look on eBay.

Thanks in advance. ♥

target's become a lot more reliable as of late. they've split their pants and jeans into 4-5 different fit categories that mix and match various hip/waist/leg length ratios. it would probably be best to check their selection out in-store, but once you find ~your number~ you're set.

Yeah, I remember seeing those signs when I was there last, with all the different styles, etc. They didn't really seem to have the right inseam length, though. They had shorts, but no petites. Does it have to do more with the cut/style than the length now?

the size variations probably have more to do with how the pants fit on your hips/waist, but with all cuts and styles. they actually have two different systems going on at once, one for mossimo and one for another brand they sell side by side (xhilaration, i think) and i think the mossimo brand is more petite friendly. but also check out american eagle like your friend suggested.

Alright, I'll definitely keep that in mind and try to remember Mossimo. I am literally taking notes, lol. Thanks so much. <3
