NOpe sorry, not quite bored enough yet, give it time and a few more threads about cats and I 'll be right with you, Love.

pirategirl · 12/07/2007 14:05

lol, only if you help me find some. what size are you?

oliveoil · 12/07/2007 14:06

ooooh

I got some lovely ones in River Island the other day

skinny ones - which I usually hate but they ruffle up a bit at the bottom to hide my odd calfs (calves?)

they are long though, not petite

but of course sw

what type Naily?

I have till 2.30 sharp and then I must do some work

fishie · 12/07/2007 14:11

i tried on a pair of petite ones in gap the other day by mistake, they are certainly cut very differently, rather than just being shorter. they have all those helpful teenagers too, go and make them work very hard finding a good fit for you.

or debenhams seem to have many many different sorts.

nailpolish · 12/07/2007 14:14

well

i like skinny jeans but i feel like have knock knees in them. but currently they are my fave. have a nice pair of gold strappy wedges that look nice in them

there is no way on earth id wear those 'boy jeans' yuk

so bootleg or skinny

i like dark jeans but they are not v summery are they

i ususally buy petite from dot p's, topshop, next (who else does petite?)

I saw superfine jeans in liberty's the other day and they're - well, very fine denim which is a nice change. Quite £££ though

oliveoil · 12/07/2007 14:19

topshop

Butterbeertroot · 12/07/2007 14:20

H&M?

GColdtimer · 12/07/2007 14:21

I'm petite too but such a shortarse, sometimes the Next petites are a tad too long.

Ever tried M&S, if you get past the old woman's stuff I have managed to find some quite nice ones. Also, Fat Face do shortleg.

So we have:
Gap, TopShop, Next, M&S, Dotty Ps, Fat Face

Any others?

pippo · 12/07/2007 14:21

top shop 'v' jeans are pretty good, I'm 5'1" and quite curvy - think they are pretty flattering on. Bit low rise tho' so have to wear longish tops with them.

bundle · 12/07/2007 14:22

oh and the m&s ltd collection are nice jeans. they usually do different lengths too.

oliveoil · 12/07/2007 14:22

pippo - those are the ones I have linked

not that naily seems arsed

nailpolish · 12/07/2007 14:22

i dont think H&M do petite

good old TS - i always buy their jeans. (whispers- i get bored tho) if its not broken dont fix it?

i actually saw a pari of diesel ones and died they were so nice. i cant remember the price ?£70

bundle · 12/07/2007 14:25
