Purple Star emoji 9 items
If you’re under 5’4” and tired of hemming every pair of jeans or dealing with waistband gaps, this list is for you. As a petite, 5'2", thigh curvy mom, I look for jeans with shorter inseams, a bit of stretch, and a high-rise fit that shapes without s...

Wide Leg

Wide leg jeans that don't swallow you whole because they're just wide leg and not super wide leg or super baggy. ☺️

Ok, grab these if you are for real, curvy. Like - your jeans ride down and you have to hike them up constantly - curvy. I felt these ran a smidge large, so grab your size and maybe a size down to decide the best fit. *And if you're just petite, the p...

Finally found wide-leg trousers that actually fit right and come in different inseam options, which makes such a difference. They come in a lot of colors, so it’s easy to find something that works for everyday wear. I’ve been wearing jeans nonstop an...
Luxe for Less - Wide Leg High Waist Business Pants

They fit well through the hips and have a flattering high-waisted fit. I got these in black, and the material is thick but still flowy with a subtle waffle weave texture. It’s a nice change from plain fabrics and makes them feel a little more elevate...
Classic Style - Wide Leg Stretchy Work Pants Women

90's Relaxed/ Straight Jeans

Ok, these are half straight leg and half relaxed, slouch. But, since they actually fit length-wise, the hem falls nicely over a sneaker, short heal, or even sandals. There's no bunching between the knee and ankle. No cuffing needed.

I have these in the Rondell Wash and the Belmere Wash (black). They are high waisted, and only come up to my navel, which I like. They are super comfortable, they don't cling to my thighs and the waist is just right. Not too narrow and zero waist gap...

These jeans are my new favorite right now. They come in curvy too. However, I took a chance and got these in the regular fit and they fit really well, no waist gap, and no pancake bum or squished thighs. They stay on my waist and don't ride up, or do...

Surprisingly comfortable and petite friendly. I took a chance on these after returning multiple pairs of Levi's (Ahem, curvy fit. 😩). I can get away with a 29" inseam, that's the longest inseam I can pull off. These jeans have a bit of stretch which...

Flare Leg

I didn't know how much I'd like these…

This flare leg is just the right amount of flare without looking like bell bottoms. It's on trend without feeling like you're trying too hard. They come in curvy fit too. But, I took a chance on the regular fit and they fit well. I think it's because...

I bought these to give them a try - and although at first i though I looked silly in them - I am now in-love with them. They are supremely soft and so, so comfy. I'm not sure if this style is still available, but I think they offer a wide leg version...

I didn't know such comfortable, flattering leggings existed. I'm not a LuLu legging person because I wouldn't know where to begin. These leggings are soft, hold you in without being super thick, and they strecth. I use them for running and I love the...
