Which ones are your favorites? I recently bought a $200 pair of Citizens for Humanity (is that what they're called?) and they are awesome. I had them hemmed, and ahhhhh... Jeans that fit and look good! But I don't see spending that kind of money on jeans all the time--so what are your recs for jeans for curvy and short people?

Citizens. And I'm short and have hips for someone my height. I buy then on eBay for ~$85-95, have them hemmed and they last a decade...Married to a Urology Attending! (that is an understated exclamation point)

I cannot fit into Joe's nor Hudson. My legs are too thick, especially my calves. If I buy jeans at a Nordstrom, they hem them there for free. I'll try the other ones you guys mentioned, but I think I've just got to get the Citizens on sale...married to an anesthesia attending

I have really muscular legs from running and that's why citizens work so well for me. It's a more generous leg cut. Getting them on eBay and hemmed yourself is still likely cheaper than at Nordies though I get the appeal of that. I even have some pregnancy citizens jeans.Last edited by TulipsAndSunscreen; 09-30-2015, 04:42 PM.Married to a Urology Attending! (that is an understated exclamation point)

It's not in the same class with the brands you're discussing, but Eddie Bauer has a "curvy" fit. I just got a pair of "slightly curvy" and I like the rise, the fabric, and the fit through the thighs. I need a belt though because the waist is a little loose (I have a 10" difference between my waist and hip measurements.) I think I'd try the "curvy" next for me -- and FWIW they also have a short inseam option.Alison

Do you have a Uniqlo nearby? I am short and curvy and I love their jeggings. They don't last forever but are cheap, hemming is free when you buy in store and they are so comfy. I'd wear them everyday if I had more than 2 pairs.
I don't have a store near me unfortunately so mine are a couple years old.
I also like American Eagle Outfitter's high rise jeans in Short. They cover my muffin top, the Uniqlo ones don't but I wear long shirts with those.
