I feel odd posting my booty (or lack of) online - so that photo is going away for now.</p> <p>Reporting back, after a day there is a bit of stretching - not really "bagginess" but feeling about half a size bigger. I think I will go down a size for the next pair and road test them before washing. That would mean these jeans run two sizes BIG for me. Talk about vanity sizing!</p> <p>Still going to try the COH Elsons also, as Nordie's is having triple reward points right now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317716 Sun, 20 Mar 2011 17:10:32 +0000 Heather 317716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOOHOO, UNA!!!!! I am SO happy for you. =)</p> <p>Look at that awesome bod! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317670 Sun, 20 Mar 2011 15:39:54 +0000 Beth 317670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How satisfying, Una! And no scolding about breaking SYC. You'd have been crazy not to:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317668 Sun, 20 Mar 2011 15:36:57 +0000 Angie 317668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice! And the botty too. </p> <p>Road test and report back on bagginess factor. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317665 Sun, 20 Mar 2011 15:34:56 +0000 Jonesy 317665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they look super-fab, and what a price! Score! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317625 Sun, 20 Mar 2011 14:42:44 +0000 lynne 317625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look great. Go get a pair of the dark wash. Better yet, get 2. If I find something that's perfect, and a basic, I like to buy multiples. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317573 Sun, 20 Mar 2011 05:54:49 +0000 rae 317573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I kind of like the whiskering! It seems to even out the bottom half of the IT figure to me. And I haven't seen whiskering in so long that it almost seems edgy again... like tie dye. Anyway, sorry to ramble - congrats again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317317 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 20:06:44 +0000 Lisa 317317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Length is perfect, fit is great, I have jeans with funky whiskering too and yours aren't as bad. Sometimes it's crazy like these Lucky Brand jeans! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317270 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 19:04:31 +0000 CocoLion 317270@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Length looks perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317266 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 18:59:28 +0000 Marley 317266@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh Una - you have a butt! Yea! Great jeans! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317264 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 18:58:46 +0000 Mellllls 317264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The length is perfect. Are they too baggy though in the thighs? I can't tell from the pictures...how do they feel? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317237 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 18:25:28 +0000 kellygirl 317237@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look great to me! I'm curious though, did you try the L&amp;L's or Perfect Bootcuts? I must have missed that post if you did. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317221 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 17:28:58 +0000 wilson 317221@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay Una! I know the excitement of finding jeans that fit and are gently priced, I had an experience like that with the GAP long and leans (I bought a few different washes using the 40% off Wednesday coupons). Its a double score when they don't need to be altered in the length! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317210 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 17:10:07 +0000 MNsara 317210@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they look great! From all angles! I think the length is PPL with those shoes </p> <p>Congrats! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317205 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 17:03:34 +0000 catgirl 317205@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SYC is "shop your closet" - meaning no buying new stuff. Some of us had pledged to do it till April (me!) - but there have many bumps along the way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317204 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 17:02:34 +0000 catgirl 317204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Added photos - please be honest. These were under $40 so if they are not perfect, I can live - but this is as good as I've found. If these work then I'm getting the darker wash as well. Thanks! (And that rear view will NOT be staying up long!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317203 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 17:02:21 +0000 Aziraphale 317203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SYC? That's an abbreviation I can't figure out....can someone help me?</p> <p>Glad you found some perfect jeans, Una! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317196 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 16:31:50 +0000 MNsara 317196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my goodness - you can't let SYC prevent you from finding jeans THAT FIT! </p> <p>If you need any rationalization, consider using these to replace 2-3 pair of poorly fitting pants. . . feel any better?</p> <p>On a different note, I wonder why I have never seen these at NRack? They're priced like Jag and Kut jeans, and lots of us are pleased with those brands. The full priced one is available in some sizes at my Mall of America store. I may have to check these out. I'm not really petite, but flats always means hemming off a couple inches. . . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317146 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 14:21:28 +0000 Mellllls 317146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>those look great! i know how frustrating it is too find short jeans!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317143 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 14:14:57 +0000 Mo 317143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>yay for jeans that fit! I have the other problem - many fit me and so I'm too easily tempted. Now I know I'm lucky to have such a 'problem' through seeing your (and Sarah's) jean hunt frustrations. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317142 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 14:10:34 +0000 lynne 317142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Exciting, especially at such a great price! If the inseam wasn't an inch too short for me, I'd be copying them, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317124 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 12:12:27 +0000 Sveta 317124@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's great news, Una! The wash does not seem too casual to me.<br /> Great find! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317101 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 06:55:53 +0000 rae 317101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats! I can't wait to see them on you -- doesn't it feel great to fill a wardrobe hole? I always feel so accomplished. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317095 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 06:06:07 +0000 lyn* 317095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay for new jeans! Can't wait to see the pics tomorrow!</p> <p>*gentle kick* I'm very bad at SYC too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317088 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 05:41:46 +0000 CocoLion 317088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay for finding a pair that fit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-pair-of-jeans-that-fit#post-317072 Sat, 19 Mar 2011 04:45:15 +0000 catgirl 317072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried the Rivet &amp; Blues brand from Nordie's, which I've never heard of and can't find anywhere else, because they come in petite. Well, they are perfect. I even went ahead and threw them in the wash. So you'll see them tomorrow. Jumping the gun on YLF opinion - I'm a little nervous but think they'll be approved.</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/rivet-blues-bootcut-stretch-jeans-petite/3135626?origin=PredictiveSearch&#038;resultback=656" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ri.....ltback=656</a></p> <p>They are comfy, flattering, have a good rise for me, and are the right length, with a slighter bootcut than regular pants. The wash is a little casual (why the whiskering?) but they were so cheap I can forgive it, and there are other washes at regular price. </p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/rivet-blues-straight-leg-stretch-jeans-petite/3135625?origin=PredictiveSearch&#038;resultback=656" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ri.....ltback=656</a></p> <p>And they are at least half the price of the "real" premium denim brands. Petite gals who don't want a low rise, I encourage you to check them out. And kick me for being so bad at SYC. </p>
