Where Does It Go?

It's been a while since I've posted. I've been busy with school, trying to buy a house, and just trying to keep the 1.5 jobs I have in this crappy economic time. However I wanted to give you the low-down on my Gap 1969 jeans adventure.... Guess what... It was a bust. Take that Patrick Robinson! Yeah.. I tried their Curvy fit on a couple weeks ago and I was pretty disappointed. I have a 28.5 inch waist, 41 inch hips and 22+ inch (depending on where you measure) thighs... I picked up the jeans in a size 8 and to my dismay.. .they were too loose on the waist, fit pretty well on the thighs but I didn't like the way they broke at the knee. If they hug my thighs all the way down to the knee my thighs just end up looking extra large. Who is that helping.. really??

So disappointed. Maybe I should try the Long and Lean version or check out the Boot Cut but I was betting on the Curvy. You know who's version of the Curvy jean does fit perfectly?? Express. LOVE THEM!!!! So.. if you measure up like I do I highly suggest Express' Eva Curvy fit jeans. Very Nice!

1969 My Ass!

So Gap just launched they're 1969 Premium Denim Jeans a few days ago. I who used to be a huge fan of Gap jeans am a little weary about purchasing any of these. If you've followed my story you know I put on a lil extra in the lower area. Since then.. Gap jeans just don't fit like they used to. Patrick Robinson however has sworn to us all that these will be some of the best fitting jeans we'll ever purchase. I'm finding it hard to believe... BUT..I'm going to brave it and give the "Curvy" jeans a shot.

They look great.. but we all know about appearances. I got WAY more thigh than this girl! However, I will try them on and keep you posted. If they do fit like a glove hopefully I'll still have time to snatch them up while they're $20.00 off. Pray for me.
