I am 5'0" and their "short" lengths are perfect </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1896780 Fri, 10 Oct 2014 12:55:57 +0000 BSB 1896780@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like my American Eagle skinny jeans. There's a high rise version so you don't have to worry about your butt crack showing. I think it's only sold online. So I would try on some skinny jeans in the store than go up to the cashier and ask to order the high-rise skinny jeans. They'll give you free shipping in the store. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1896757 Fri, 10 Oct 2014 12:43:40 +0000 GreenThumb 1896757@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like the Loft jeans. They are pretty reasonable and come in petite (which I also need at 5'3"). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1896738 Fri, 10 Oct 2014 12:32:44 +0000 Ms.Badger 1896738@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I second J.Crew outlet </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1896736 Fri, 10 Oct 2014 12:30:13 +0000 MrsA 1896736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have Paige black skinnies that I love. I also just bought the Gap high rise skinnies, they come to just below the belly button so not too "mom jean" high rise if that makes sense. They seem to help my pancake butt while sucking in the postpartum flab. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880822 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 21:14:25 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1880822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>not a fan of gap/old navy jeans for myself. i would check out h&amp;m, forever 21, and urban! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880777 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 20:27:49 +0000 SeptMomma12 1880777@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>J.Crew outlet! Their toothpick and matchstick styles are great. And they always have sales, so I've never paid more than $30 for a pair. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880686 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 18:47:30 +0000 hilary 1880686@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Denizen from Target. They are super comfy and not low rise. They also sell short which I also have to buy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880681 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 18:40:15 +0000 snowjewelz 1880681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am barely 5'1" and I love Hue jeggings; they are thick and have back pockets, super comfortable! I also love Uniqlo. I bought mine on vacation in Asia but I think all their stores have free alterations? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880493 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 13:32:00 +0000 serenity207 1880493@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks so much ladies for the feedback!!

They don't hug the ankle which I like , so it still feels like jeans and not leggings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880258 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 08:12:16 +0000 Mrs. Confetti 1880258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't worn them but my friend swears by American eagle skinny jeans. With sales, price is totally manageable too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880251 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 07:50:24 +0000 MissLace 1880251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NCSUchick27: i second the skinny jeans from express! they're the only jeans I've found that fit me perfectly (i'm barely 5'1") without having to be rolled/hemmed/folded at the bottom. The skinny jeans with the ankle zippers are especially flattering. I always get them when they're on sale, which is pretty often. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880246 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 07:40:17 +0000 LemonLong 1880246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Try the a Hue leggings brand. Macy's carries them in the hosiery section. While I haven't tried the denim ones, I have a pair of their corduroy ones and I get compliments whenever I wear them. They are the only pants I've had where other women who are absolute strangers have approached me to ask where I've gotten them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880231 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 07:09:44 +0000 erwoo 1880231@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have two pairs of Gap's legging jeans and I love it. It's super comfortable and isn't really low rise and I'm sure they carry in petit sizes as well. It's normally $70 but I bought them when they have their one item for 45% off if you use the Gap card. They do go on sale so worth keeping an eye out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880229 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 07:02:40 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1880229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know you said no Old Navy- but have you tried the Rockstar skinnies from there? They're awesome- I have two pairs! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880190 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 01:53:45 +0000 Ree723 1880190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just bought a pair of super skinnies from H&amp;M and I love them! I'm in the UK though and they don't always carry the same stock in the US but could be worth checking out. They were £20, so about $33 USD. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880183 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 01:17:30 +0000 birdofafeather 1880183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>actually way into the rockstar jeans from ON. While my body transitions from BFing weight loss back to regular weight, those have been great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880181 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 01:11:16 +0000 gingerbebe 1880181@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Democracy brand jeans - they have a little bit of stretch and not super low-rise and very comfortable. They retail for like $50-80 but I bought mine at Costco last fall/winter for $30 a pair. I'd keep my eye out to see if they bring them back again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880157 Sat, 27 Sep 2014 23:06:13 +0000 QBbride 1880157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like my skinny jeans from a urban Outfitters! They're the Twigg mid-rise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880149 Sat, 27 Sep 2014 22:30:54 +0000 NCSUchick27 1880149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like my skinny jeans from Express, and they aren't too expensive if you catch them on sale. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880121 Sat, 27 Sep 2014 21:58:44 +0000 photojane 1880121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not jeans, but I love the Old Navy Pixie pants. I have SERIOUS pancake butt &amp; they give me a little bit of a booty. The stretch makes them really comfortable too. The ankle would probably fit like regular skinnies &amp; you wouldn't even need to get them hemmed. </p> <p>As for jeans, I've been buying from Target the past couple years. I don't love them, but I don't hate them either. That's saying a lot though... I usually hate jeans. And cheap! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880120 Sat, 27 Sep 2014 21:56:29 +0000 hotchildinthecity 1880120@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Joe Fresh! They're only like $30. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880118 Sat, 27 Sep 2014 21:55:29 +0000 PurplePumps 1880118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My absolute favorite jeans are 7FAM, but INC at Macy's fits pretty well too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flattering-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1880115 Sat, 27 Sep 2014 21:50:46 +0000 serenity207 1880115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My wardrobe is in a sad state and desperately needs some updating. I need some new skinny jeans but my old ones from Old Navy and Gap don't seem to be doing my butt any favors. What are some of your favorite go-to brands for skinny jeans that don't give you pancake butt and also don't break the bank. I'm also 5'1 so they would have to fit a more petite size. Thanks for your thoughts! </p>
