Oh, I do not like stretch jeans, it feels like when I put them on, they are already stretched out, they don't fit me good at all.Originally Posted by Natalie_ca
The only type of jeans that I like are stretch jeans. I've never ever liked the way regular blue jeans feel on my body: I find them so restrictive for movement and binding, even when I was skinny at 118 pounds.
I know how you feel half pint, us short people do have a problem there.Originally Posted by halfpint

There Gloria Vanderbuilt Amanda Jeans, Try them on at least if you see them somewhere, I know the stores here like Mervyn's, Kohl,s have them and Costco also sometimes I am not sure what stores you have there, you might like them I have lots of them But I usually get 2 or 3 when I buy them, right now though I am between a 4 and 6 I need some some 5s and they don't come in 5s, so hopefully I can gain a few pounds...I know everyone will say GAIN yeppers I need toOriginally Posted by LSULOVER

Does that work well? Buying on Ebay when you can't try them on? I think that would be worse!Originally Posted by emily_325
Good luck! Hopefully by the time you read this you have returned with the perfect jeans. If not, don't lose hope.
I don't know exactly what your body type is, but I LOVE the jeans from Express. They're about $60 a pair in the store but they fit oh so good and seem to last (except picks here and there where a certain grey fuzzy butted kitten decided to try and climb me the other day...).
If you DO find a namebrand, size, and cut that you like that's a little more than you like to pay... you can often find jeans on ebay really cheap. I buy Express jeans on there for $20-$25 a pair including shipping.
It works if you know exactly what brand, size and cut fits you. For example, I know that in my favorite jeans, I think they're W31 boot cut, from Express I wear a 10 Long. As long as I get that exact cut and size I'm okay. Its way better than paying $60 a pair!Originally Posted by SillyJilly

I'm the same way!Originally Posted by LSULOVER
I wouldn't buy anything that I could not try on first, I hafta see what they look like on me.
Pounds!!!Originally Posted by halfpint

What jeans or pounds I'll take either or
I see... I've never gotten a precise sizing that I like per say so that may not work for me yet!! We'll see once I'm down to my goal size!Originally Posted by emily_325

I have friends that do it with the designer jeans mainly, which are sized by waist/hip and inseams like mens jeans. Either way, I would try them on in a brick and mortar store first and determine your perfect size and fit.
