I need some new jeans and wanted to find out what you girls are wearing. 

Thanks!

Hi Tracy!

I like bootleg and flare-leg jeans for myself. I usually wear them with high-heel boots. I have one pair of jeans with really flared legs that graze the floor over my boots. This elongates my body.

I know the skinny leg jeans are on trend but I just don't care for the shape they give me. I like flare leg because they balance out my upper body nicely.

I prefer mid-rise to low rise because I like the extra coverage and don't care to show my panties to the world, LOL! But this is a personal choice.

A brand I like to wear is Jeanstar available at my local Macy's store. They are well made, very flattering and are inexpensive.

Here's pics if it helps...

I still love my Levi's 501 or 505 (same cut, zipper fly), peg 14 (I have a tailor narrow the legs from 14 inches above the hemline).

I also have two pairs of 7 for All Mankind, dark wash, mid-rise bootcut jeans that are flattering and comfy.

I'm gearing up to try on the Sasson jeans at Walmart, to see if they are still as comfy or flattering as they used to be, back in the day.

I have a bunch of different jeans for different occasions. Right now my favorite jeans to buy are colorful ones. I have these purple Paige Jeans I got at Anthropologie that I just adore! I also have some lime green ones that seem like they would be awful but they are actually super cute with a neutral top and shoes! Fit wise, I really like jeans that fall between the "skinny" and "bootcut" leg; and "low" and "mid" rises. A lot of jeans are moving in this direction. Hudson straight-leg jeans do this well, also Seven jeans have a great variety of fits that are awesome. Those are my two top brands for jeans. They are always super soft and comfy and you should give them a try! :)

I have to add that I never wear low-rise and have a hard time with mid-rise.  I have a very long torso, and even longer tops wind up gapping (or worse, bubbling into "air love-handles") on me.  Flashing my midriff is just not my style.
