Short women who are over 40 can avoid the dreaded "mom jeans" by taking advantage of one of the many jeans' styles available that are aided by technology. Blending spandex or another stretchy material combined with engineered styling that smooths and lifts helps women of a certain age look stylish in their jeans.

These jeans by Not Your Daughter's Jeans from Nordstrom (Buy Direct) feature soft fabric, boot-cut styling, cotton/spandex fabric for stretch, and crisscross fabric panels that flatten the tummy and lift the rear. The jeans' inseam is 29 1/2".
