holy canoli jean size!!?

Question

i can never find the right jean size for me...it's actually really annoying. i find a good one for my hip size in the store so i buy it and i get home and it's too big...I have a size two and it's good length but it's too big. If i went down to a one sometimes it's too short or my stomach sticks over it. T.T
what can I do??

Answer 1

Wear the two with a belt.

Answer 2

I am 51. I weight 124 pounds. I am 5'4.5" In Gap jeans I wear a 4. Have a pair of size 2 Banana Republic jeans that fit. Some jeans from England where I guess the sizes are different, size 8.

Answer 3

I have the same problem hun. Try a store that sells jeans in lengths. Get the low rise ones with a stretch. I usually get my jeans at Urban Behaviour. Or try the hip huggers too. Limmited is also a great store for you. Their jeans come in allot of styles also lengths. They have low rise, hip huggers..etc.......... If you got curves that's the store for you. If your a size 1 or 2 the Drew or Cassidy fit will look awesome on you. Their jeans and pants are very comfortable..Good luck!! I hope I helped Yeah =)

Have you ever heard the saying that no two snowflakes are ever alike? Well, that also holds true for jeans. You may fall in love with a pair of jeans, and the next pair of the same type you buy does not feel the same.

Suggestion, take a day for yourself, go to your favorite jean store and try on several pair. You may have to save up the money and buy several pair at once, but at least you will know they fit well.

Another hint, try buying them just a tad lose, or go when your on your period. I know that sounds awful, but you need these babies to fit even when it is your most favorite time of the month. The reason I recommend that is because the jeans will also shrink a bit when you wash them.

Good luck! Happy hunting.

Size two is perfectly normal! You might try a petitte if you are a short gal. I am a 2, and I am 5 foot 3 inches. I get a 2 petitte and that takes care of the length issue. Or you can get them hemmed cheaply at any dry cleaner. Good luck buying jeans sucks.

Answer 6

Ugh, I have the same problem- I can never find jeans that fit me! I have no hips / butt, but really long legs. Sometimes I just get stretch jeans, which get bigger as the day goes by, so I have to wash them each time I wear them. But I do that anyway, so whatever.
If you don't mind having fringie stuff on the bottom you can pull out the hems before you wear them to make them longer.
Definitely make sure to try on jeans before you buy them, and assume that they will get larger as each day goes by, and smaller in the wash.
Hope that helps!

Answer 7

may be if you try this it might work. go to the little girls section and try the size 18 or 16. most of the time its right for a size 00 person or a size 2 person depending on the type of jean. unless you go to the designer stores than you can try a size 24 or 25.

Answer 8

I really recommend custom made jeans for you. I get mine at Make Your Own Jeans. They start at just $45.00. You have total control over the style, fit, cut, rise, length, everything. I just love them. You even have choices of different cute pockets and other embellishments. They look great and they're so comfortable because they fit perfectly.

Answer 9

Find the best fit in the waist and make sure they are long enough. Then have them tailored so they are perfect for you. Just to have the length taken up a little is usually just about $10-$15

Answer 10

i have the same problem! i just buy pants that fit right on the waist and then pay a dry cleaners to alter them. they can do EVERYTHING! i usually make the legs and thighs tighter. it's costs money, but at least you have jeans that fit. if you ever find jeans on sale that don't fit quite right, buy them cheap and pay the extra to have them fitted to your body.

Answer 11

Do you know a good seamtress? I always buy for my waist and hips and have them hemmed for length.
