Gap boy friends - need input

I know you all talked about the gap bf jeans in the past. Did you size up?

I like the first and its one size larger at 6 to get that baggy effect. The waist is big so I will need to belt it.

I did size up one size but they stretched on me. I like the second picture.

I really like them on you, but would like to see it rolled somewhat higher....

The 6s fit you like my smallest size of these jean fit me. You could size up even more for some real slouch. I do wear a belt because they stretch over the day, but I like them hanging just caught on my hipbones.

Second picture looks sharp. Like the cuff and would show a little ankle above chunky boots or booties. To balance the toughness, maybe a top in a feminine color.

I sized up - usually a 2 or a 4, got a 6p. Are these petite? I don't usually wear petites but the petite definitely worked better for me in these.

I usually wear a size 0 in GAP jeans - but I bought a size 6 in these. I swim in them, but I want the look to be one of exaggerated slouchiness and bagginess! (Note, my mom sent me a GAP gift certificate - otherwise, I would NOT have been shopping since I'm still strictly SYCing!)

I went up one size and mine are moderately baggy. They do grow though.

Still no BF in my life, so I can't suggest size, but I really like these on you and 2 especially. I may need Marley's local help here (either with Gap or Sveta's Kut's).

I don't own Gap ones but I sized up1 size in my KUT and they are baggy enough for me (still cannot slide them down without unzipping though
Unless you wnat them to be very slouchy this size works well. You may try the next size up for comparison...

I sized up one size, and I'm glad I didn't go more, because they do stretch as the day goes on! I can take them off without unzipping/unbuttoning.

I think they look cute on you!

I went up two sizes - usually a 2 at Gap, and bought a 6. Like Marley, I ended up with a Gap gift card, so I am also trying white in a 6p to see if the roll comes up higher.

I'm wondering if I might have sized up too much. Sounds like most people have sized up only one or two sizes. I may have gotten carried away! I haven't worn them yet, because its been too hot, so I think that I'll post a pic of them in the next few days and get input from my YLF buddies. (Vick, I think you and I need to go look for you a boyfriend sometime next week!)

Marley, I think you should get a 4. I'm at least a size bigger than you and I'M swimming in the 6. In addition to already being slouchy, I feel these run large, because I'm usually a 4 at Gap but even the 2 is slouchy on me in this style.

Thanks Una for the advice. I'll post pics in the next couple of days! I've still got the tags on the jeans and the receipt, so no problem if I decide to exchange them.

It sounds like sizing up one is a good formula and, yes, Marley, I'm ready to look and sent you a pm.
