12879080, girly post: HALP!!!
Posted by latenitemix, Thu Aug-13-15 11:27 AM
umm so my birthday is next month and i'm having a party and i have no idea what to wear

i'm all consumed with everything else that i haven't thought about what to wear. i don't wanna mess around and wait until the last minute so i'm asking you peeps for help

my size range now is like 12-16 depending on the manufacturer/style/etc.

i want something sexy that i can dance all night in and it doesn't have to be a dress. i want to look like a grown woman and not a little girl.

help me please!

12880066, im having trouble finding tall jeans
Posted by teefiveten, Fri Aug-14-15 11:09 AM
gap jeans dont fit right since i lost weight
i gained some back too but a lot of times its too baggy in the front. ugh.

those bdg urban outfitters ones were doing me alright but they pretty much haven't sold a tall jean in 2 seasons so i think it's a wrap

jcrew's jeans can be pretty stiff.

im looking for a straight leg jean w/ some stretch for tall women that isn't a wack wash. HELP!
12880101, have you tried loft?
Posted by latenitemix, Fri Aug-14-15 11:25 AM
i am a convert to their jeans and they have tall sizes. it can't hurt to try.
12880104, Same problem
Posted by GirlChild, Fri Aug-14-15 11:26 AM
I feel like BR fits me better now
Also it's expensive as hell but Madewell's denim is pretty good. I got a pair of shorts there that fit just right. Their having a stupid sale right now.
12880195, express has these new "performance fit" jeans...
Posted by StephBMore, Fri Aug-14-15 12:33 PM
they really are amazing and come in three lengths, so you should be able to fit the tall. but they have the right amount of stretch to hug all of your curves correctly. I fell in love. they are pricy ($88) but RIGHT NOW, they are 40% off online and in stores...so if you can go snatch some up soon...i got like two pairs! Mid-rise so now I can go out in a damn crop top and be all fly.
