I'd have to have it taken up a good 2 inches! Poo. BUT- I did end up settling on the dark denim wash "perfect boot." It's the closest jean to actually fitting me, although it is too short for my 4 inch heels. Oddly enough, the lighter wash doesn't fit me the same. Bizarre. I know everyone has mad love for the Gap, and all I can say is I really wish I could jump onboard, but Levi jeans just seem to be better for my body type. Thankfully, they don't cost a fortune either! I ended up really, really liking the “long and lean,” but it doesn’t come in more than the “standard” inseam, so it’s much too long for me.

Even as a petite girl with hips and a spare tire, I found the jeans are fitting much better now than before. I'm sorry you had a rough time :( Bad jeans shopping experience can be so defeating.

I actually have a hard time finding jeans at all. They always pucker off the back of my butt. It is enough to drive a girl crazy.

today im wearing the “long and lean” style– did you try them? they are PERFECT for me, and if you didn’t give them a go, i’d suggest trying ONE more time, if you have it in you. have a cocktail first and then shop the clearance rack- you’re bound to find SOMETHING! let me know!
