And at Loft, the jean styles from the last year or so are long enough now, but a couple of pairs I bought several years ago were a little too short, so I sold them on ebay! All of LL Bean's petite pants have 28.5" inseams, so even though they've got some cute styles these days, I can't wear them -- they might work for you!

Express used to have some shorter length pants for dress slacks that were cute. The flare wasn't really proportioned as well as it could be though. They just hacked it off a few inches. But, they were ok if you didn't want to hem it.
