I have 3 pairs. The different fabrics stretch differing amounts, I like the thicker ones best and they have a pretty high rise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-waisted-short-length-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1207402 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 19:50:20 +0000 littlecasita1122 1207402@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wear the ON Sweetheart skinny jeans and love them - they fit me a lot better than the Rockstars. They come up right below my belly button. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-waisted-short-length-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1207293 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 18:08:34 +0000 shinymama 1207293@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ironically enough, I buy my mommy {skinny} jeans in the Juniors department at Kohls. Totally random, but they fit the bill, and at less than $25 they're a steal. The brand is SO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-waisted-short-length-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1207288 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 18:05:16 +0000 chopsuey 1207288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: do you have a nordstrom rack close by? I picked up some cute, high waisted, ankle length skinny jeans for 39 bucks. Rich and skinny brand. Also got some high waisted ankle length true religions for 59! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-waisted-short-length-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1207286 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 18:03:27 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 1207286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like forever21 jeans! they are $10 and actually last quite a while, I find! Cheap to try a few pairs anyways. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-waisted-short-length-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1207238 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 17:22:02 +0000 Boogs 1207238@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My problems with all jeans is that they all seem to stretch out, especially in the booty, and in an unflattering way. It sucks because I have a booty and would like to show it off! </p> <p>But, I just read from Oprah <a href="http://www.oprah.com/style/Best-Jeans-for-Every-Body/2" rel="nofollow">http://www.oprah.com/style/Best-Jeans-for-Every-Body/2</a> that this brand is good for petite ladies, so I'm wondering if maybe they would do the trick? The price also seems fair? <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/jag-jeans-peri-pull-on-straight-leg-jeans-petite-after-midnight/3503140?origin=category" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/jag-jeans-peri-pull-on-straight-leg-jeans-petite-after-midnight/3503140?origin=category</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-waisted-short-length-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1207234 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 17:17:06 +0000 shopaholic 1207234@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have one pair from Madewell that I love. They're not cheap, but not as expensive as J Brands. I've been wearing them more post-baby for the same reasons you listed, and I like that they don't stretch out as much as my other jeans. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-waisted-short-length-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1207198 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 16:37:53 +0000 Freckles 1207198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Gap has a high waisted skinny jean. If you get the "short" length you should be good. I know Gap jeans tend to stretch but i do like that they cover up muffin tops. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-waisted-short-length-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1207128 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 15:42:17 +0000 Boogs 1207128@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: Even the mid-rise ones?

I'm 5'1'" and even if it says low rise it's usually up to my belly button! But try Target!</p> <p>Eta: Now that I think about it... I still have to roll up the legs in the short size, but it's my signature style at this point. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-waisted-short-length-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1207055 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 14:33:54 +0000 Honeybee 1207055@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Boogs: yes!

Have you tried ON mid-rise rockstar skinnies? I actually quite like them. Also, I have these in white <a href="http://shorl.com/subrudrypefimy" rel="nofollow">http://shorl.com/subrudrypefimy</a> and these dark wash ones <a href="http://shorl.com/pomihalograju" rel="nofollow">http://shorl.com/pomihalograju</a> and really love them. The best part is that even though I'm super short, there's no hemming required.</p> <p>They also have regular length, not just talls and petites: <a href="http://shorl.com/stustudrihesybry" rel="nofollow">http://shorl.com/stustudrihesybry</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-waisted-short-length-affordable-skinny-jeans#post-1207028 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 14:16:41 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1207028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is there such a thing? I hate having to alter jeans because it changes the shape. And I need high-waisted jeans post-kids. I also don't want to spend a lot of money. </p> <p>I really need some new jeans.... I love J Brand, but don't want to spend nearly that much. Any suggestions where I can find the holy grail of affordable skinny jeans for petite moms that need to cover their bellies? </p>
