There is nothing like putting on a perfect pair of jeans with a tee. I was looking through my closet and tried on almost every pair recently. I have all shades of denim and various styles but not all were fit and flattering.
I'm tall and my biggest must-have in jeans is extra length especially length that works when dressing them up with heels. The next thing on the checklist is fit. And I know I'm not alone in trying to find that perfect pair of jeans which can be a challenge and time consuming. So let's get a handle on the most common types of jeans for women:
Straight leg - works for many body types with a slimming effect
Boot cut / flared - has a lower rise and starts flaring at the knees with a wider opening at the bottom
Skinny - very fitted jean with smaller leg openings
When shopping for jeans, be prepared to spend some time searching and trying them on. It's best to not worry about a specific size, but know your measurements (
waist, hips, inseam).
Also, know your body type (fuller figure, slender/long, petite, curvy, etc.).
I Love Jeans has an interactive guide to help you find your body type.
Zafu is another cool tool that helps take the guesswork out of finding a great pair of jeans.
Not Your Daughter's Jeans® (the original Tummy Tuck Jean) are considered to be an excellent choice for tummy flattening. And who couldn't use a little help in that area especially as a means to steer clear of mom jeans.
So whether it's your curves, thighs, junk in the trunk, not enough junk in the trunk, waistline or legs, what is your biggest issue when trying to find that perfect pair of jeans? Let's share and chat about it.
