Leggings for petites: update (with pic)

Can't find the original thread but wanted to post an update. I finally got my Arden B leggings in the mail. If you are petite and looking for cropped leggings that fit perfectly with no alterations necessary, these are it:

(I got them in black)

The side snaps are a cute detail, but be aware that they are not functional. I.e., I can't unsnap them and wear them open like Angie's zippered leggings. I could probably cut them and have a tailor serge the seams if I wanted to wear them open, but for now I'm just tickled I could find a pair that fit!

They are opaque. I have yet to wear them out of the house but have been lounging in them at home this weekend and they are comfy. :-)

Here's a pic for you! I forgot I took this Friday:

This is with the F21 top. I would NOT wear this combo out of the house - the top isn't long enough. I was just wearing it to kick around the house and lounge in the hammock in the backyard.

My goal is ultimately to wear the leggings with this dress:

I was worried it would be too much black, but I'm hoping the snaps add just enough interest it will work together. What do you think?

Shiny, Can you tell me what the rise is? Like you, I am petite but also need a very low rise which makes finding bottoms rather challenging.

I love the look on you!! I think that dress is terrific and the leggings will be perfect. I also
love the Forever 21 top. I was there today and could not find the on you mentioned. A new one opened at North shore mall. Maybe I didn't look hard enough.

Those leggings are awesome Shiny! So glad they worked out for you; I'll have to check them out.

I think they will work with your black dress, but definitely post a pic so we can see!

I think I can safely bet we will be seeing those in several weekly-recap photos for weeks to come. :) They look great, and you are going to find a lot to wear with them!

elpgal, the rise on the small measures 8 inches but since they stretch I pull them up higher than that.

Kristen, I did cull out most of my shorter dresses and skirts last year, so I don't think there will be and endless parade of outfits I can make with these. Just a few I have in mind. Also they are really comfy just for lounging around at home!

They look very cute on you! I love the top - both the color and the style is fab.

By the way, I did see zippered leggings (with working zippers) at Marshalls this weekend. They looked exactly like the ones Angie has, and the quality was better than your regular knockoff.

Shiny you are rocking the leggings! And that F21 top is amazing on you. You look so teeny tiny in that outfit! Can't wait to see the leggings paired with that gorgeous black dress too!!
