Lisa821 29 Posted May 14, 2012 I'm getting frustrated with finding jeans that fit. It's funny because I used to have the same problem. It was so hard to find jeans that would fit my big booty! So I would buy the same pair from the same place year after year. Now that I'm smaller I'm shopping and the jeans usually fit my thighs, butt and hips. However, at the top of my hips/waist line the jeans flare out?? My teenage daughters say they are for "muffin tops"...we called them love handles. Yeah, sure I'm happy that I don't have love handles to fill that flared waist but I just don't get it. Is there a certain style I should be looking for? Perhaps "hip huggers" or something. I was anti-shopping for so long that I'm truly out of the fashion loop. Anyone have suggestions? By the way, I've tried belts but they are uncomfortable and just gather the waist, look silly. Thanks for your help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lyndynojo 140 Posted May 14, 2012 I love low rise jeans, but I have a lower waist too. I find that the low rise don't cut me in two and just look better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hadouni 301 Posted May 14, 2012 Try Not Your Daughter's Jeans. My cousin gave me a pair of these and they go up quite a bit higher than I'm used to but I'm used to the hip-hugger shape. I don't like things around my belly button or higher than it. Used to drive my mom nuts - all my clothes hung around my hips and were (according to her) a size too big!

fluffylibra30 323 Posted May 14, 2012 You need to go to a store like Kohls or Sears they have every kind of Levi's under the sun. They have a label called Curve ID, for every shape and size, you can even go online and they go through all the different types. I love them. Happy Jean shopping. Jeans are a very important piece I clothing you wanna get it right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
traceyc 89 Posted May 14, 2012 I like old navy's new jeans. I wear the "flirt" as i am more straight in the waist and hips but you sound like a "sweetheart". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
