Petite woman-Where Do You Buy Your Jeans??

I am petite and cannot find jeans that fit me properly. I have to shop in the juniors section and now adays they are sooo tight in the legs and the zipper is a half inch long!Jeans from the petite sections just don't fit in the hips, legs or in the pelvic region properly I need to find jeans that are just long enough and when I bend over my crack isn't hanging out! I have jeans from AE but I am pulling them up every 5 minutes and they are a tad too long if these 2 things were fixed they would be perfect Not looking to spend more than $60.00 for 1 pair unless they are the greatest jeans you have ever owned Hope you can help me THANKS!

What can I do next?

Try the petite dept at Macy's. They have jeans called Style and Co. in regular petite and petite short (example 8PS stands for 8 petite short) where the pant length is shorter than regular petite. Jeans cost around 29.99 and sometimes are on sale for 24.99. Not all Macy's stores have a huge stock and you may have to order online but try a larger store to fit yourself before ordering online.

Second place to try is Liz Claiborne petite department. They make regular petite as well as petite short.
Jeans cost around 50-60 dollars but sometimes you find sales at the larger department stores. If you are in the mood for hunting, there is a Liz Claiborne outlet store at Great Lakes Crossing but the selection can be limited.

I'm short too. Try New York and Co. jeans. They have all available sizes and their "petites" are TRULY petite. I've bought some short or petites at other stores and wonder who the hell are they made for, cause they were WAY too long on ME.

They also have them boot cut, straight leg, etc. and are generally NOT hip huggers. They cost approx. $30 or so, but you can also wait til they run a sale and get them for about $20. There is usually a New York and Co. at any major mall.

I have had amazing luck at the Levi store at Somerset. They are perfect and hold up really well. They are also so helpful there in finding a good fit

We get all of our jeans from Eddie Bauer. They are the best fit for me! Petite jeans will need to be ordered from the catalog or online, but if it doesn't work for you they can be returned to the nearest EB store to save on return shipping.

I find petite pants in the section at Kohl's.
