Life and How to Live It

she’s got pretty persuasion…

Who Needs Legs for Days?!

It happens to many of us I am sure. We walk into the dressing room to try on a great new pair of jeans. They slip on perfectly, hug our butts to perfection, and provide just the right amount of coverage on our gut. We begin to walk out of the dressing room to ogle our designer jean butts in the full length mirror when we catch our foot on the extra 7.5 inches of fucking material hanging off our feet and fall flat on our faces in front of a sales woman who we know is only feeling pity because she still wants the commission.

 

Designer jeans average 34-36 inches in the inseam and being that the average woman is only 5’ 4”, it is quite unfair that most women would have to pay an extra 20 bucks to get their jeans altered, when the world usually falls by a “majority rules” scenario.

 

Luckily, the world of overpriced oh-so-delectable jeans seems to be listening. What started out as a petite section full of “mom jeans” appropriately branded, “Not Your Daughter’s Jeans,” has turned into a haven for petite designer duds baring only a difference in size to their model length counterparts.

 

Paige Premium denim, Seven For All Mankind, Joe’s Jeans and Citizens of Humanity now offer the same exact jeans that make our butts look fabulous but without all the extra material that only reminds us we are not models.

Nordstrom’s currently carries petite sizes online but ShopBop has the best selection. Need to try them on? Head out to your nearest Bloomingdales for a wide variety of cut and style.

 

My personal favorite. Paige for day. Joe’s for night. Seven “dojo” for the days when I need some more blue to my blue jeans.

 

Happy shopping!
