Favorite Jeans
I'm not having any luck finding jeans I like...I'm 5'3" so that's a bit of an issue..and well I hate feeling any sense of tightness when I'm wearing jeans. I bought a pair at the Gap..and when I tried them on I liked the fit better than the size down, which seemed a little too tight..well when I wear them they stretch out in two seconds and I literally have a butt sagging down to the backs of my knees, not to mention I don't need to undo them at all to take them off...sigh. Help me 
Re: Favorite Jeans
I like the Gap long and lean (ankle length is perfect - I'm 5'3" too) and for a liiittle tighter fit the sexy boot cut 1969 jeans. DO buy the size smaller though because yes, Gap jeans are awful about stretching right away. You can put them on freshly washed and tighter in the morning and by the time you're ready to hit the road, they're comfy. lol!
I will say that long and lean fit awesome when I had a fuller caboose but the pockets are low so they would sag if there's not enough bottom there. (I have saggy buns now and the sexy bootcut have higher pockets.)
I'm a semi-shorty as well at 5'4''. I LOVE jeans from Express. That's normally where I buy all my jeans. I've had great luck with them fitting just right and their denim seems to be of a good sturdy quality. They are a bit pricey if you don't find them on sale but they usually have sales fairly often or coupon codes online.
Try Sliver Jeans, I have a 31in inseam, and to find jeans that don't drag is a pain! Also Buckel Brand- very much like Sliver jeans, I like the style "Drew" very comfy! no saggy butt!
I've also had good luck at Marcies.
I'm only 5'5 Not much taller but it sucks having a 31" inseam!
