Yesterday, I went shopping for jeans. In case you missed my
updates on Facebook, it did not go well. I am a proud shorty who comes in at 5’2”
AND A HALF. I honestly don’t ever think of my height except when I am shopping
for clothes. I always go right to the “short” lengths – if a pant doesn’t come
in short then I don’t even bother looking at it. Clearly, jeans/pants
manufacturers have a different idea of what short is because the short style
pants are still way too long for me. I find it so frustrating.
Based on my extensive internet research (of Googling it and
then reading the top two hits), it appears that all the short people in America
are buying jeans and then having them hemmed. Really? Is this what I need to
do? Who has time for that added inconvenience? Instead, I’m just going to keep
complaining about it and inevitably cuffing my pants. Sigh.
Well when all was said and done, I did come home with one
pair of jeans so I thought I would share them with you. These are Old Navy
Sweetheart Style Boot Cut Jeans in Short…
Still too long but this is always about as good as I get.
