Where can I buy short jeans online?

I am 5ft1 size 14 and getting tired of having to roll up my jeans.

I have checked my usual places to shop -H&M, New Look, Asos under the 'petite' section, but the choice is dire for my size.

Also checked Matalan, Dorothy Perkins, Debenhams -found one pale wash pair from Miss Selfridge which will do for now, but I need more than one pair.

I have looked at Next, but some of the 'skinny' jeans look baggy around the knees and ankles. I have had a pair from here before, which did get baggier as the day went so I am not keen.

I like skinny high waisted jeans, not ripped. I prefer jeans to leggings so I can button and zip them up.

Please help :)

Topshop

Topshop or River Island, fit really well I’m shorter than you though & I buy the ankle grazer ones which are perfect on me.

Have you tried Tu at Sainsbury's? I just ordered their black stretch skinnies in short. Too short for me, I'm 5 foot 6, but they fitted really nicely and have been recommended elsewhere. Only £16 as well!

I get mine from jd Williams and curvissa.

Another vote for Topshop. I'm 5.1 (just) and they're a good length. M&S do some good short jeans too

I get mine from Abercrombie and Fitch. They do a short leg (30 inches) in most of their Jeans.

I struggle too to find good fitting short length jeans and trousers, Next are too long now as their 'petite' range is now 5ft 4 and under it used to be 5ft 2 and they trousers used to be perfect, M&S can sometimes be surprising but the sizing is all over the place, the other thing to do is find a good alterations person and buy jean that fit well and have them taken up to the perfect length.

Not online but Sainsburys are good

Sainsburys do do online! And I second that recommendation for their skinnies. I have two pairs and they're pretty much the only jeans I wear
