Jeans

Well, I decided to start my quest for a closet with great clothes that I don't have to stare at and wonder why the heck did I buy that and I will never wear that again (probably because I have grown out of it!) and I HAVE NOTHING TO WEAR!!!! I thought I will look for one item of clothing per shopping day.

I decided to look for the most important staple, THE JEAN! Jeans are so important in my life. I wear them every day and when you are down to one favorite pair that doesn't sag (like dirty baby diapers), pinch or bind, I felt like it was time to get a new pair! I cheated! I started with the same brand as my favorite pair and OMG! I found one of the same brand, different style, but they fit even better!!!! They are just long enough, they don't slide down my waist to create the saggy butt (which causes me to constantly hike up my pants in an inelegant and un-classy way) and they are tight in the upper leg to below the knee! AHHHHH(musical note that the funny girl sings in the Progressive Insurance Commercial- she is so cute!). They were mid-rise, really mid-rise, not the teen version of a mid- rise that covers an extra third of your butt cheeks, but still doesn't cover the crack or the thong! This is perfect for me because being an "Apple" shape, it covers the muffin top just enough but not too high to where the muffin top is now under the waist band of your jeans and is now showing as a tire roll!!! That's the problem with "Mom" jeans, (well there are SOOOO many problem with "Mom" jeans) but they make you look like you are pregnant. The waistband is too high, the crotch is too baggy, the hips are like elephant ears and if they taper to the ankle, you got MC Hammer come back to life!!!! So, I don't want to depend on one brand and style, because what if they stop making that particular style. I am on a quest for us all , so I am going out again and try different brands and styles and I will report back my findings and hopefully a few more pair of jeans I can wear!!!!
