Hers fit her perfectly, mine are a little big in the waist. I don't have much of a waist at all, so this is a problem I rarely encounter. I think I'll keep them and have the waist taken in a bit, since they are a slightly looser than my other white jeans and therefore probably more appropriate according to Angie's rules for white pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marianna-white-jeans-from-talbots#post-138220 Sat, 27 Mar 2010 05:05:38 +0000 marianna 138220@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad they worked out for you, Sara! I'd love to see pics of the yellow jeans! They sound great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marianna-white-jeans-from-talbots#post-138216 Sat, 27 Mar 2010 04:55:27 +0000 MNsara 138216@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got some too, thanks to marianna's great thread. </p> <p>I got two sizes in the straight leg and think I will keep the larger of the two sizes. They actually fit pretty well (!) but I am still greatful for the incredible price because white jeans will be a fashion risk for me.</p> <p>One strange thing I noticed is how the fly is/isn't centered, but I do plan to wear longer tops, so it will be acceptable.</p> <p>I also got some flare jeans in this vivid yellow called 'sunbeam' (!) and actually think I will keep BOTH sizes - skinnying one and turning the other into clamdiggers. . .<br /> Wish me luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marianna-white-jeans-from-talbots#post-138141 Fri, 26 Mar 2010 20:57:29 +0000 marianna 138141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Which style did you get? I got the straight legs. The legs/hips fit fine on me, it's just the waist that creates jumbo extra large muffin top. For the price I'll keep them, but I agree that I would not have paid full price for them. Even if they were $20, I'd probably return them. But for $12 with shipping, they might be okay with a tunic occasionally. Or to resell on eBay if I decide against them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marianna-white-jeans-from-talbots#post-138137 Fri, 26 Mar 2010 20:43:51 +0000 agrace 138137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I found them to run true to size for me. But they do give me muffin top. I'm not wild about them and they are a touch sheer...and I know many might disagree but for $7 I'll probably keep one pair (I'm between sizes) and maybe give the other to my mom. </p> <p>I would not have paid full price for these. I think I have some serious apple tendencies. For example, the size 8 buttons great but they are baggy-ish thru hip area - not bad at all - just slightly. The 6 will not button at all - forget about it! But they are a great fit in the legs and hips. Sigh. I just find dressing as an hourglass/ apple to be a challenge.</p> <p>I think you will really look nice in white jeans. I'm surprised that they are not something you would reach for pretty often. When I had a pair that fit me well, I wore them constantly. They make me feel more polished and chic. </p> <p>Well, no matter what- thanks for the deal heads up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marianna-white-jeans-from-talbots#post-138127 Fri, 26 Mar 2010 19:34:44 +0000 marianna 138127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi agrace,</p> <p>Well, my jeans are actually a bit too small in the waist for me. They button and all that, but give me horrible muffin top and my make my crotch look ridiculous. I think that will be remedied when I lose 10 more pounds or so. That said, I found them to run small.</p> <p>My biggest complaint is the length. I ordered the tall length because I wanted some wiggle room for 2 inch heels. Unfortunately their "tall" inseam is pretty much regular. It's about 33.5" inches, which is what I usually take for flats. I can't wear them with 2 inch heels. If I was any taller, the tall length would not have worked. I'm annoyed because I wanted them to be long enough so I could wear them with my Fidjis... alas...</p> <p>Otherwise, I think they're fine (especially for $7!) They seem to provide adequate coverage and are not see-through.</p> <p>I decided to keep them be cause they're SO cheap and I know I probably won't wear white jeans very much at all. For the price, they're nice to have in my closet in case I ever feel like wearing white jeans.</p> <p>Did you find them to run large or small? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marianna-white-jeans-from-talbots#post-138115 Fri, 26 Mar 2010 18:39:29 +0000 agrace 138115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I remember you posting about the unbelievable price of the white jeans a few weeks ago. I ordered 2 sizes and I'm not thrilled with either pair! How did yours work out? I'm not sure what I'm going to do as I am between the two sizes. Maybe just wait and see what happens. They were less than $7 a piece! </p> <p>What did you think of them? Will they work for you? </p>
