FYI, I bought the "dark wash skinnies" from BR in "short" and "long" (by accident - they sent the wrong size) and they fit SUPER differently. The "longs" are much looser in the bum, thigh, and calf. I actually kept them both because they serve different purposes (I like the slimmer fit for tucking into knee-high boots).</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans/page/2#post-1120410 Sun, 22 Dec 2013 22:48:34 +0000 Lisa 1120410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like these.&nbsp; And if mine every get here (I ordered them on the 9th, boy they are taking a while) your fit is probably how mine will fit.&nbsp; A little tighter versus some of the looser fits I see on other forum members.&nbsp; I like them a lot, and I'm looking forward to how you style them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans/page/2#post-1120292 Sun, 22 Dec 2013 19:44:48 +0000 Anonymous 1120292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look good -- mine are much looser on me, which is a fit I prefer, but you look great.</p> <p>I thought your husband liked skinny jeans and bemoaned the baggy BF look --- shouldn't he be happy? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1120279 Sun, 22 Dec 2013 19:22:06 +0000 pastrygirl 1120279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They don't look too tight to me AT ALL&nbsp;-- in fact, my first thought was yay, someone with jeans in the&nbsp;correct size! I think your backside looks just fine in them, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1120007 Sun, 22 Dec 2013 04:15:51 +0000 Jewell 1120007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds to me like these are just fine for work. I was assuming that denim, skinnies especially,&nbsp;was a no-go. And neither view bothers me...are you kidding?! You look awesome! I'm actually hoping that mine eventually fit more like yours- gotta get back into my workout routine </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119965 Sun, 22 Dec 2013 02:34:18 +0000 Jaime 1119965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those jeans look fantastic on you, but yes in a more (I am not saying too) body con way. I hope DH meant that as a compliment! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119962 Sun, 22 Dec 2013 02:32:00 +0000 annagybe 1119962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them! I think they would be appropriate for your new department.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119960 Sun, 22 Dec 2013 02:29:11 +0000 Gigi 1119960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they look great, both front and back.&nbsp;The fit seems really good.&nbsp;As for the "big butt" issue, I would ask yourself if *you* think they look bad from the rear view. If you think the back view is unflattering and would have thought so even without your DH's comment, then maybe you want to keep looking. But if you yourself are satisfied with the view, I would say keep. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119938 Sun, 22 Dec 2013 01:59:14 +0000 Karie 1119938@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There is no way possible, on this planet or any other, that a person wearing a size 2 could have a big butt! &nbsp;I'd like to see the one-size-up version just for comparison, but these look fantastic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119932 Sun, 22 Dec 2013 01:49:42 +0000 Angie 1119932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The change of venue will be a fun change I'm sure. At the Flagship, SA's are allowed to wear jeans as long as they aren't blue or distressed. You'll have to enjoy your shredded jeans on non-work days, Rae.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119928 Sun, 22 Dec 2013 01:46:12 +0000 Janet 1119928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Geez, if you ladies are thinking your thighs looked big in these pants, there is very, very little hope for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119927 Sun, 22 Dec 2013 01:45:39 +0000 rae 1119927@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Angie! One of the benefits of a change of venue. Ironically, our POV floor offers far more denim options.... go figure. Now if only I could wear destroyed denim, I would be happy as a clam! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119925 Sun, 22 Dec 2013 01:42:26 +0000 Angie 1119925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like these are perfect, Rae - if you can manage how hubs feels about them.</p> <p>I didn't for a second think they were too tight for work. This is one of the&nbsp;fashion fits&nbsp;and you're in the fashion biz. I see plenty of SA's at Nordies wear tight skinnies with panache. And you will too. </p> <p>So you can wear jeans to work after all?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119921 Sun, 22 Dec 2013 01:35:49 +0000 rae 1119921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, FWIW, I don't see elephant skin when I see you in your skinnies, either. I think part of it may be how round my booty is, preventing wrinkles from draping the same way as they might on you. Also, I do have my off white TR BF jeans, so I really did want a true skinny.</p> <p>Suz, I was as shocked as anybody to learn that I preferred a petite fit at BR! It's the only place I like the petites better... found out accidentally when I ordered petite crops on Ebay by mistake. Something about the knee placement works better for me - perhaps it is some function of my short thighs and proportionally long shins (the same thing that allows me to wear taller boots than you do)?? No idea, but it is an interesting fluke of nature!</p> <p>For those who think they are too tight for work (keep in mind I will soon be working in a department that mainly sells Vince, Joie, and Helmut Lang... read: big, long, flowy silky tunic things), is it the back view or the front that bothers you?</p> <p>The other idea I might try is a pair of 100% cotton jeans I found on Ebay... cheaper but no returns.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119899 Sun, 22 Dec 2013 01:09:49 +0000 karymk 1119899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wish I had your arse...How many times do I have to tell you to ignore your SIs comments? Mine hates my butt in BF jeans but I still wear them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119830 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 23:39:15 +0000 Jules 1119830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Re: your backside, what Una said, and then a lotta what Liz said </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119807 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 23:03:54 +0000 Suz 1119807@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When I first started wearing my white Kut skinnies I was sure my thighs looked like beached whales. But I swear I got used to it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119800 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 22:54:59 +0000 Makrame 1119800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I don't think anyone wearing size 2 should be concerned about the "big butt issue". &nbsp;:) &nbsp;I will say that when I put my BR cream skinnies on, my first thought was "my thighs look bigger in these pants than in any other pants I own". &nbsp;I wonder if the "enlargement effect" has something to do with the color. &nbsp;</p> <p>I think you look great in these jeans and if you wanted to size up, they would still look good on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119797 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 22:41:18 +0000 Angela K 1119797@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae how could you even have a big butt in a 2P. It's simply not possible! ;)<br /> I decided to size up on these jeans because of several reasons. Main one was the tightness of the leg from my thighs all the way to the calf. One size up relaxed that just enough. You don't have the problem of the snug fit going all the way down the leg. I think these will stretch some for you in your current size so they won't be quite as body con. It really just depends on your personal comfort level. These actually look really nice on you. Don't you just love the fabric and the color!? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119727 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 21:22:51 +0000 Suz 1119727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ETA you rear side looks great. Mr. Rae might need to have his eye adjust to the whole light denim thing? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119726 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 21:22:15 +0000 Suz 1119726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aren't they incredibly soft? Rae, I went with the regular length. I think I got a fit somewhere between yours and Angie's. They are too long for me in regular and I will probably have them hemmed a bit. My experience with BR is that the petite fit in the same size is a bit different from the regular fit. And I prefer the regulars on me <b>except for length</b>. So it might still be worth trying them for comparison.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119718 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 21:13:31 +0000 unfrumped 1119718@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Una said. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119671 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 20:40:20 +0000 Liz A. 1119671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These do look tight to me, but if my BF said my butt looked the biggest he's ever seen it, I'd be taking that as a solid compliment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119647 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 20:08:07 +0000 Jewell 1119647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the way these fit you! I think the current size is perfect for casual wear and going out, but I'd suggest sizing up if you want to wear them to work.&nbsp;Unfortunately, large&nbsp;back pockets like those found on these jeans can distort a rear view. That's probably why DH thinks these make your backside look bigger.&nbsp;Maybe try them with a couple of the tops you'd most likely wear them with and see if that helps you decide. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119624 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 19:45:45 +0000 Janet 1119624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they look great for a skinny silhouette. Count me as another one who would kill for a rear view like yours!</p> <p>I bought these in light grey and am awaiting them in cream. They "fit" per se in a 29, but I wanted them not body con, so I went for the 30. I'm wearing them today and can see I would benefit from having the waist taken in so they don't keep sliding down my backside, but they are awfully comfy and actually have sufficient length for a little bit of scrunch, even in the regular length size on me!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119593 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 18:39:47 +0000 CocoLion 1119593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The length looks great and I like them on you. &nbsp;I think they might be too body con for work, unless you are wearing a tunic. &nbsp;I see them more as a going out jean. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119590 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 18:37:08 +0000 catgirl 1119590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer this color sized up because it's a light color and somehow looks more slimming to me with a bit of wrinklage.&nbsp; But in no way does your rear view look bad - I'd kill for a posterior like that! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119580 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 18:16:14 +0000 Angie 1119580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you're after a body con fit, these fit the bill and look great.&nbsp;</p> <p>FWIW, I don't find the ripples and sags un-elegant on the pair I bought, which are a much roomier fit than these. In fact, I think quite the opposite. Horses for courses, I guess. xo</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119576 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 18:10:55 +0000 Catnip 1119576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Rae.&nbsp; I don't see the elephant skin effect here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-more-br-cream-jeans#post-1119573 Sat, 21 Dec 2013 18:07:39 +0000 rae 1119573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Catnip, elephant skin is what I think of when you size up on a really thin skinny jean, and instead of slouching elegantly, the thin fabric just sort of ripples and sags like a plastic bag or saggy elephant skin. :T </p>
