Bought My first pair of Womens Jeans

The trick is, for low-rise jeans--don't order by the waist size--order by your hip measurement!!!

ALLOY.COM Size Chart

Plus, look at the fabric content--if there is some "lycra" in it, you can get away with a hip measurement that is an inch or so lower than your measurement--that is what true "stretch" jeans really mean, not the fake stretch cotton/polyester crap that mens jeans manufacturers have been foisting on the male public for the last 50 years.

As is noted in the size chart, these are your actual measurements, NOT THE JEANS MEASUREMENTS! All jeans include some extra for "wearing ease", generally about 2-4" more at the girth (for all cotton jeans, or 98% Cotton / 2% Lycra, less so with more lycra content (5%+).

If you insist on attempting to find your jeans at some other source (can't imagine why you'd want to do that since Alloy has just about everything you could imagine, but maybe you just have some sort of masochistic streak...), Note that for the purposes of buying hip-hugger jeans, aka "low rise", Junior sizes are comparable to "Misses" sizes one digit larger, e.g. a size 17 is roughly comparable to a Misses 18.

Hope this helps...

Off track a little, but I've had a lycra and tight jeans fetish for years and always wore skintight jeans when I was younger. That phase ended when the 90's came about and I could no longer buy what I wanted. Then a few years back "jazz pants" came in fashion and to make a long story short, I have about 6 pairs of differing colours. I finally came "out" by "accidently" putting my girlfriend's pants on and wore them for a short while she was around. Thankfully she likes me in them so now I have managed to build it up so I wear them nearly all the time in the house. They're very revealing so I don't wear them out. What would the neighbours say?!!

It's my opinion, no more, no less :wave:

Loswabs:-) I am not aware that there were pants called "Jazz Pants". This is something new to me. Maybe they were not available in the "states". Never too old to learn, eh! Cheers--- Dawn HH
