They’re right there in the doorway and upon inspection I’m
already afraid of the fiasco that is jeans fittings.
My last experience had me in Wild Pair for about an hour and
a half trying to find something that wasn’t gaping at the waist or too small to
pull over my thighs. I imagined that I had told you all about it but it may
have been during my blog drought. After all that I ended up buying a pair that
I could barely do up. The shop girl (probably tired of my small waist and big
bum by now) told me to buy the too-small pair. “They’re perfect if you can only
just do the button up” they always say… Those jeans have now sat in my wardrobe
for three or so months. I’ve tried them on a couple of times and always taken
them off for something that makes me feel less like a sausage. They are very nice jeans, and I’m sure my
wardrobe appreciates them.
I have news for the fashion designers out there – small
girls can have big butts.
I have a small waist and often have to compromise on pants
and skirts. They either fit my bottom half and gape at the top or fit my waist
and restrict me from sitting or bending – if I can get them over my butt at
all.
So the off-putting business is right there on the tag. “Super
Skinny” it says. I walk away. Super skinny means no thighs, hips or ass. Super
skinny is super depressing in my experience. Jeanswest also stocks jeans which
are “Curve Embracing”. I like the sound of that. They have Curve Embracers in
another purple, but it’s not as warm as the ones I’ve got my heart set on. The
staff bring me no joy. There’s no curve embracing blackberries out the back. I
resign to trying on the dreaded super skinnies.
Win! They pull over my thighs. Win! They slip over my hips. And
Win! makes three. The waist is a nice height and it fits snuggly. My tummy and
ass are firmly embraced. No muffin, no crack.These jeans are perfect. They feel lovely and look great. I am joyous to tell the girl I will take them, and they are the best fitting jeans I’ve tried in years. So thanks Jeanswest! You just made my day.
