    I'm 5'2 and wear a size 10/12 in jeans. I find tons of petite jeans at Ann Taylor Loft, The Limited, and Levis. As soon as the jeans go on sale I stock up on a few pairs in my favorite designs.

    Express - Love their jeans!
    Loft (Anne Taylor) - They have a bunch of different fits, I get most of my dress pants from here and have a few pairs of other pants as well
    White House Black Market - I'm addicted to their skinny jeans, on the pricier side though

    I went to JC Penney and Kohls the other day to buy jeans and it was so annoying the brands I love don't come any smaller than a 4 and they often don't have the 4 in Short or petite. So apprently department stores are not the way to go. I need nice quality b/c I do wear these to work so Old Navy is not really and option.

    I'm 5'1 and weigh 130 pounds so I'm still a little curvy (natural waist is 26 around the belly button is 28 and hips are 38 at my booty and 37.5 at the upper thighs) I'm also 35 so I don't want "Super duper low rise everyone can see my booty crack" jeans. And skinny jeans never seem to fit me right....not against them just haven't found any I like yet.

    Any suggestuions on where to buy good jeans that will fit and not cost $100? I'm willing to spend some money but I can't get too crazy I do have Christmas presents to buy.

    Thanks!

    Yup I'm 5'1" and between 115-120 lbs and it's really hard to find jeans that fit. I usually have to go to the JR's dept now. LOL I still laugh and even though it's a pain I think it's totally fun, who ever thought a 52 year old could shop in the JR's dept. (some REALLY CUTE stuff there you won't find in the other dept). I find the sizing of jeans odd sometimes there, but just try on various brands and I guess my muscles make it hard to find skinny jeans that fit but it's okay. Sometimes I find what I like in the stores that are too long and then find a place to order them online in petite. Even then, sometimes I have to wear my boots or shoes with a little heel on them, but it's FUN. Not going to complain. But for sure it's hard to spontaneously go clothes shopping when you are small at petite, not much to choose from, most stores don't have anything below size 4-6 so it's frustrating. But ENJOY the fact that you are beautiful and fit. LOVE IT!

    These are the BEST skinny jeans/leggins EVER for short curvy girls! I just bought some (I am 4'11, 135lbs) and have never worn skinny jeans because I could not find any that fit right. These fit in the waist, no gap, not too low. and they accommodate my "junk in the trunk" :) Buy them!! You will not be disappointed!

    They are the ones in my profile pic!

    bump...i haven't bought new jeans in ages (trying to get 100% back to pre-prego weight), but the list here of places to try is great :)
    i have a few pairs of silver jeans (buckle or maurices) that fit well and are a good length for petite as well as a pair of older american eagle jeans that i LOVE :) i am 5'3.5'' and 131-133ish and i struggle finding jeans that are comfy and professional enough to wear to work on fridays :)

    I like Delia's. It's geared towards Juniors and Teens but they have several styles ranging from low to mid-rise, with inseams as short as 26". No "mommy" jeans though! They have things with and without stretch, from skinny straight legs to flared legs. I'm 4'11, 123lbs, and their size 5/6 with the 28" inseam fits me perfectly. Their jeans are always buy one get one 50%, and they cost $30-$40 a pair.

    Buckle. Pricier than most places BUT they hem for free so you get the perfect length for you!

    Buckle for sure!

    American Eagle or Aeropostale. (They usually run awesome sales a few times a year so you can get 3 or 4 pairs for what you'd normally spend on 1 or 2)

    I'm 5'1, 130lbs and depending on which store I shop at, I'm a 3/4 or a 5/6. They also have the "short" length and I've found that these tend to be about a half inch too long for my legs, but when I wear them with heels they're perfect. I swear by them...my lower body is quite curvy...big butt thick thighs, etc. I always had the gapping problem when it came to buying jeans to fit my butt/thighs but they'd be huge around the waist. When I finally found jeans that fit properly at these two stores, I stocked up!

    I'm 5'1" ,107lbs and I love Victorias Secret London jeans. They are a little longer than most petites, but the fit is great.
