ISO new brand of jeans. I usually buy gap jeans but want something different. My work just announced that we no longer have to dress up and can wear jeans!! I think that is the perfect excuse to buy more!
So, what's your favorite brand and fit of jean? You know, the ones that look fantastic on you. Also, whats your body type so I don't go trying on jeans that a tall thin girl looks good in when I sure darn well wont. LOL
Thanks!:tongue

hmmm... I usually don't pay attention to what bramd I buy, cus I have to always try them on to see if they'll fit... I like my jeans to be low rise (HATE it when they're up on the belly button on me, just uncomfortable) with a slight flare at the bottom. I like my jeans to have a little stretch to them, too, but not too spandex-y... right now I think I'm wearinbg metro 7 or something like that... they're very comfy, I like that they have a little stretch and give, but the waist doesn't much, so I don't have to keep pulling them up every 30 seconds halfway through the day ;) I'm a bit ... fluffy.. so finding jeans that fit is a little more difficult, esp since I have always had a smaller waist than my butt, so I have to look real hard to find some that are flattering on my butt, but not falling down, or not skin tight on my thighs but fitting my waist perfectly...
well, I guess I'm not much help at all.. lol.. but maybe I'll be watching this thread ;)

You got me on that one....I'm still looking for new jeans that fit right. After I had Natalie I lost most of the weight, but nothing fits the same.:(

sorry... no help here :( almost every pair of jeans I have are Gap. I know I can always go into a Gap Store and find a pair of jeans that fits. Before kids... when I was "smaller" I also loved Ralph Lauren jeans. I can almost fit back into them! :)
But it's true... after kids nothing ever fits the same.

I don't like jeans. I wear them, but I hate that you can't buy the same size with every factory that makes them.
I get Gloria Vanderbelt at Mervyns, or jeans at Lane Bryant. I need something with a little stretch to them.

last pare of jeans i bought were made by Dickies. All the pants i get are either Dickies or Dockers since thats all that fits these days
Just cheap old navy here. Can't say I really like the fit, they are just cheap :)

I really like Limited Jeans-Short (since I am!) You've seen me so you know my body type ;)

Abercrombie and Fitch has great jeans, I also really love Lucky Jeans (they sell them at buckle) and I used to love American Eagle jeans but they don't fit me as well as they used to (still worth a shot though, and they are reasonably priced). Also, though it's the same corporation as Gap, Banana Republic (where I work lol) makes great jeans. I love the contour fit, it works really well for me.
Well, being that I'm a big girl, difficult to fit, and losing weight I have started buying my jeans at Ross. I bought a pair of Lee At the Waist Relaxed Straight Leg and a pair of Levi's 515 Boot Cut. Both fit well.
I've always loved Levi's and was crushed when I got too big to wear them. I am *SO* glad that someone decided to make them for us fuller gals.

LOL Me too! I don't think I have a single pair of jeans that "fit" me right now, but if they're cheap and I can zip them... we have a winner! Most of mine are Old Navy too.

I have not been able to do Old Navy jeans for years!!! I Wish I could!!! I just don't seem to have the lower "old navy" body that everyone else has. My thighs and butt are too big for the back side of the waste, while the waste in the front cuts into my belly....go figure!
Even the low rise, which I use to wear before preggers and now stretchmarks, I can't get to fit my butt and hips unless I want the length and the legs to be for some huge person....
So, right now I am jean-less....
