I need a new pair of jeans. I’ve been living in a pair I bought from Debenhams (of all places) for over a year. Owing to the fact that the size jeans that’s not insanely tight on my butt is usually loose on my waist (big butt and smaller waist), I hate buying jeans. But I had to today, and I can admit (shamefully) that I caved into the pressure to buy a ‘good’ pair of jeans.With the excuse that they would live longer, of course. So off I went cavorting about this pretty city (obviously not in Egypt) in search of jeans.
But unfortunately I was shamed. Every ‘good’ jeans store seemingly only caters to small girls. 7 for all mankind? 30 inch waist (UK size 12) is their ‘biggest’–fat girl, just die. Ditto Rock and Republic. Even tacky Apple Bottoms (which hilariously kept playing the ‘Low’ song mentioning their jeans over and over and over) didn’t have anything over 28 inches. It was so bad I eventually thought of sulking over to Debenhams again. Eventually though, I found an ok pair in River Island. And then treated myself to some divine ice-cream.
The plight of every woman who is not a size 8.
Yuck!! Shopping!! And jeans? Double yuck!!! Glad you managed to get one. Mine was bought from Old Navy. 2 years and going. So out of style. But I SO don’t care. *shrugs*
if ur size is above average, then shopping online is the best option
places i recommend if u r in uk or ireland, simplybe.ie , oxendales.. and to less extend http://www.evans.co.uk

Pants are the bane of my existance, but thankfully I’ve found out where to get my jeans. Lane Bryant Right Fit jeans come in three different cuts for differently proportioned girls. (Each of these cuts then comes in straight, bootcut, flare, various washes, ect.) I wear yellow (larger waist, smaller seat) and you sound like blue (smaller waist, larger seat). They’re comparatively inexpensive but really really nice and last a very long time.
