They are cut more generously in the thighs. I have had good luck with Kut from the Kloth in the Catherine cut and AG Jeans in the Nikki relaxed skinny cut. There is a pair of AG Nikki's in the Anniversary Sale. </p> <p>Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jeans-shopping#post-1521549 Fri, 17 Jul 2015 10:40:21 +0000 Katie 1521549@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi girls, thanks for your replies.&nbsp; I haven't ever had the waist done by a tailor, so I'm not sure.&nbsp; In my past even curvier days I did it myself.&nbsp; But a good thought.&nbsp; Thanks for your advice:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jeans-shopping#post-1519641 Tue, 14 Jul 2015 14:21:34 +0000 puppycat 1519641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love jeans but I generally have the tight thigh/loose waist problem and it makes denim shopping very frustrating.&nbsp; I have found a style of jeans I love (KUT Annie boyfriend) and although they're no longer a style that's sold in the stores I have found they pop up on Ebay occasionally so I have been planning to replace mine.&nbsp; I have lost some weight and my current pair is in danger of sliding off my body soon---based on this thread i'm considering going to a tailor to alter the waist so I can wear them a while longer and wait for the next size down to pop up at auction.&nbsp; How much would taking in the waist generally cost in your neck of the woods?. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jeans-shopping#post-1519585 Tue, 14 Jul 2015 12:44:25 +0000 frannieb 1519585@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I echo Tania - I have accepted for my curvy body that getting jeans just right off the rack is not gonna happen - so I buy to fit my hips and thighs and get tailored.&nbsp;<br />Once I accepted this really only this last year my jeans capsule grew from 1 pair of jeans to about 8 pair in a blink.</p> <p>good look </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jeans-shopping#post-1519561 Tue, 14 Jul 2015 11:38:35 +0000 Tania 1519561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't have any particular brand recommendations, but I have found tailoring to be essential.&nbsp; I make sure the pants fit on the hips/thighs and then get the waists taken in and alter the hems as needed.&nbsp; It is relatively affordable and I now find jean shopping much easier. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jeans-shopping#post-1519513 Tue, 14 Jul 2015 06:39:15 +0000 Katie 1519513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>&nbsp;I am a short (5ft 2) hourglass, about a size 6 US, but very small boned and at the moment I have a bit of pad on the hips and a mummy tummy as well as a bum that sits high and well defined.&nbsp; I like my figure in everything but jeans!&nbsp; They always look tight on the thigh and have a tendency to be loose on the waist, but they suit my sahm life style.&nbsp; I live in oz but like the variety I see in nordstrom and loft and they will ship here for me.&nbsp; I want a light blue and a white, what brands and cuts would you lovely ladies suggest???</p> <p>. </p>
