I have been living in the Walmart lee riders- love the tall cut at almost 5'9 I can cufff them- the reg are to short. Get the streach relaxed and you will likely be a 12 there. 17.98 with tax here. I also love the cherokee brand from target- again cheap and in great colors with no elastic!

You should try Target. Im a fan of Targets Mossomo jeans. They are stylish and they have anice fit. Well im not sure if they are for shorties (im 5'7")

Got my "trouser jeans" from Lands End today, and I love them! A little wider at the bottom than I'm used to, but they're super comfy. Their other jeans are very heavy. And, I fit in a 22. Yeah!

A clothing designer once told me that the wider leg at the bottom creates a smaller look towards the top!! So a tapered leg or straight leg for a heavy girl is a big no no in the fashion world for what its worth.... ha ha. Needless to say, almost all of my jeans have a slightly wider bottom portion of the leg.

Also, a shoe with a chunk heel makes you look longer and slimmer.

Its so frustrating isnt it? I cant help you all the way from Melbourne but when you find a good fit you stick to it. We have an el cheapo, really tacky, nasty store here called Chain Reaction but boy, they do the best large size jeans - lowish rise, nice bootleg, no nana jeans to be seen. All the way up to size 26. I usually buy an 18 from there, which is obviously the most popular size so when I see them, I buy 2-3 pairs. They're not expensive at all either, which is great.

When I was a teenager, I was a size 16 (US 14) and I couldnt wear jeans for years and years. You just couldnt get them in that size. It sure is better now.

Ordered two pair from Avenue AND a few other goodies, should be here any day now.

Thanks for all the advice. I'll be checking out Walmart and Penneys. I don't like Target they give ya too much trouble when ya take stuff back. My middle name is returnit.
