pants

[Guest alexaz]

Hi girls.

While I know girls dont like to shop giggle snort giggle.... I'll probably get several answers here.

I would like to get some jeans like I see around a lot but dont know what kind they are.

I have spent lots of time learning just how to tuck so that Im not only comfy but my unwanted junk is well hidden and Im smooth and flat down there.

The pants that I mean are very smooth and tight fitting in the crotch area. ( why go through all the trouble to get a look when your pants are baggy and look like guy pants )

I dont have a huge problem going into women's clothing areas at stores and looking at outfits and even trying some of them on. But all of the pants I have tried on dont fit right.

Theres pencil pants- straight leg- boot cut- skinny pants and a lot more. even high rise- low rise and mid rise. DARN its so confusing.

Is it because girls are built different from men and no matter what I try I'll never get that look or hopefully I just havent found the right ones.

I wear 34x34 guy pants and have found that size 12 long and even found that some 10 long fit well.

I see ladies wearing these jeans and want to ask them what style / brand they are but dont want to seem like a weirdo or stalker so I dont.

If anyone knows of these pants and can help, Please let me know. I really want some.

Thanks. Alexaz

Alexaz,

It's partially finding the right style and part finding the right cut for your body. Every brand of jeans fit a little differently and some brands like Old Navy have several different fits all on their own. If you are looking for jeans that are snug in the crotch/thigh area your best bet is a store that caters to younger women. The best fit I've found for me, and it sounds like you are looking for what I like to wear, has been at American Eagle.

Good Luck!

Hi Alexaz,

I suppose it really depends on the style/look you are going for (ex. Bling on the booty or not

The first pair of womens jeans I got (from my sister) were Venezia brand. These are generally sold at Lane Bryant for too much money, but they fit fantastically. Snug in the booty and thighs with boot cut, but not overly so tight. You can get them online (ebay) for a pretty good price.

Second, I found that the Lee Riders from Walmart fit well enough. Little bit roomier, but comfortable and inexpensive. They do tend to shrink, and require steam iron and a stretch every few washes :\

Neither have any bling on the pockets, and pass enough to go un noticed if in "guy mode.

Last, (and these do have some bling) No Bounderies. These are a must ch more stylish jean than the others. Good fit in the rear, straight leg... With a sparkly booty

I know there are other brand... Cause I've seen a pair on someone I worked with.... And I was dying for a pair.

That's the best I can do love.

Hugs,

Kay

The only thing that's coming to mind are: maybe they're skinny jeans, leggings or jeggings (jeans that are like leggings).

Straight leg are just that: a straight leg jeans. (good for an average female body)

Bootcut have a little more room at the bottom of the leg (and are great if you have big thighs/calves)

Flared have a little more room than bootcut (and are also great if you have big thighs/calves)

Skinny jeans taper as they go down. (perfect for you skinny minnies)

High/mid/low rise just describe how it sits at your waist.

High go way up (think mom jeans), mid are normal, and low sit below your waist, almost at your hips.

Now mind you, your waist as a woman is up near your belly button. Guys tend to wear their jeans at the hip. Those would be low rise in women's terms.

Thank you Thank you all

OH I just love shopping. The girly in me said that lol

Went on line and looked at them all OMG theirs so many I just loved....If I had a bazillion dollars...........

While waiting for your reply and going to my therapist appointment I stopped by a walmart and took a look.

Picked out 3 pairs to try on ( how come they never have my size )

These were stretch jeans by L.E.I and Levi in size 10 and 12 but only med length. ugggggh ( I need long )

I tried them on to see if they had the look I wanted them to and they did . was so happy .

Head hung low I took them back to the shelf and was guna go home and have a cry and I took 1 more look just for the heck of it.

And there they were, size 12 L in Levi Signature stretchy boot cut. OMG OMG

Ran to the fitting room and put them on

They were 12s instead of 10s but they fit good and I looked HOT teehee.

Have to keep my eye out for an other pair or 2 cuz I know Im guna wear these out fast but I got some WOOOOOHOOOOO.

Now that I know what to look for Im guna look for some that are the color I want but for now....

IM SUCH A HAPPY GIRL

That's awesome that you found something that works for you. Finding pants that fit well is way harder than it should be, especially for us tall girls.
