Jeans with staight legs are universally flattering for short women because the legs form a vertical line that makes petites look longer and leaner. To make the most of this style, also select jeans with a dark wash, rather than a lighter or stonewashed blue denim.

These David Kahn petite jeans from Nordstrom (Buy Direct) have straight legs and come in a dark wash denim. The inseam length is 31.5".
