Tapered Jeans from Lands' End

For women who want to look curvier, tapered jeans can help emphasize hips. Typically, some short women who have inverted triangle shaped figures or rectangle shaped figures may want to achieve a curvier look for hips that are relatively narrow. If the jeans also have some embroidery or other embellishment on the back pockets, this styling touch helps too.

These petite tapered jeans from Lands' End (Vendor's Site) feature a traditional at-the-waist fit, classic style, and rinsed dark indigo color. The tapered jeans are available in petite sizes 2-18, and there are three inseam options for these petite jeans--26", 28", and 30"--so that gives petites plenty of flexibility. Another neat feature is that you can try them on a virtual model to get an idea of how they would fit you.
