I don't just mean brand but style and fit. Once, years ago, I found the perfect pair of jeans. They were lee jeans and they flared out slightly in the hips and came in at the waist. Even now, with my weight redistributed slightly after pregnancy and needing to lose a bit...My waist is small while I have a bit of trouble fitting my hips. I loved the jeans so much. Even then, with a low low BMI, hardly any fat on me) I rarely wore jeans, they felt uncomfortable. These though, I wore ALL the time. Until they were all faded and the knees were all worn out - luckily it was the eightees and holes in the knees were a good look!
What about you? What fit, color, style do you like best? Have you had favourite pars of jeans, and did you wear them so much they wore out in places?

I am in good shape, round.I always had a stomach but not too much hips so I would buy guys jeans. In highschool, Lee Jeans was my favorite brand. All I needed to know was my waist size and my inseem and I got the perfect fit.After highschool, I gained some weight so I needed a bigger size. But now I have lost my stomach, I guess eating less and moving more Does work, Wrangler and Sears' brand Canyon River are my favorites.They are less expensive but they fit and Target and Sears respectively, have my size in stock.I still wear guy's jeans.I liked the relaxed fit.It has a littke more room in the seat and thigh area.

Funny, I'm the opposite. And I think most women must be smaller in legs and hips and larger in the tummy and waist. So to me it seems pants remain the same exact size basically in the legs and hips and just go up in tummy and waist size. And I like guy jeans as well - because the legs always seem larger and the seat and thigh area have more room even though they are smaller in these areas!

Mine are also Lee jeans....with just a touch of stretchy in them..flaired bottoms (boot cut?) and they are sooooo comfortable. In the winter I have a problem with my waist getting so dry from jeans though that I have to tuck my shirts in...but a good pair of jeans is like a very good friend!

Flared bottoms are boot cut. I like those as flared bottoms can de-emphasize hip size. Rather then the kind that are tight so it emphasizes them.

I am overweight, but i do have nice jeans. I love the strechy one that flare a little from the knees. It makes me look slightly thinner.

Yes skinny jeans remind of the leggings of the eightees and stretch jeans.
