I can attest to the fact that a longer length jean helps out us short people. I do need more pairs though. I really do love the soft stretchy fabric ones I have now. I’m loving the info on the jeans.

My family teases me about how long it takes me to try on jeans. Finally some validation! It's easy for teenage boy who has no bu__ to walk into and out of the dressing room in 30 sec. and make a purchase.=) I LOVED that you said it takes at least 45 min. to an hour in the dressing room!

I am 5'3 so I bought them in "short". Now I wish I had tried on the regular ones. I feel like the short ones are maybe a tad too short, or I am just used to wearing my jeans so long that they hang over my foot more. Despite the length, I really like the rise, not too high, not too low. I have the "mommy-belly" and I don't like the muffin top effect, I don't have that with these jeans. I wanted a cheap pair of jeans because I was moving down in size and wanted something to hold me over until I get where I want to be. These will do for awile. I really want to purchase a couople of high-end pairs of jeans once I get to whatever size I end up being at the end of my journey. I can't thank you enough for writing about jeans!

You must be in the right frame of mind to try on jeans because they all fit so different and the sizes are all over the board. Nice when you find brands that fit, I tend to go back to those because I know they will fit well. Will have to try the Gap jean, have not been in that store since my daughter was in high school. thanks for the great tips I found that I love Kut and Jag, they fit me well and are long enough for my tall body type.

Great tips. I love the Kut khaki jeans we bought at Nordstrom Rack, they are super comfy even though they look like they are pretty form fitting, they don't feel that way. I think they were only $34 too. Yet another blog post I must share on FB! thank you! Great tips.

I'm getting a little nervous about the skinny jean style, seems like boot cut is much more flattering?? Any thoughts? Thanks for the tips . . .
