Rebuilding My Denim Collection

Jeans used to be my favorite item to wear. But, I could never find a pear that fit me like a glove. I'm a thick lady, smaller waist, large thighs and big full butt. Current times would say this is the trending body type but I beg to differ when it comes to shopping. I can never find clothes that fit. Until I started researching brands. I found out that I love smaller boutiques like Minaa Monroe, House of Chic LA, and Nichole Lynel. But, my pocket book can't always handle it. In these cases, I look to larger branded stores like Zara, HM, Target and Walmart to fill the wardrobe dilemma I am having.

When searching for jeans, I did my research. Levis were always big in the waist. Fashion Nova always stretched out and American Eagle always made me feel like I was in between sizes. After watch a hundred YouTube reviews, I decided to try Zara. And, when I tell you I was pleasantly surprised that would be an understatement. Baby, those jeans fit. The skinny jeans are my favorite but I have purchased some baggy jeans as well as mom fit jeans.

I got tired of the stereotype that I have wear a certain type of jeans because I'm bigger. No ma'am, I not buying it. It's all about the FIT. If it fits in the right areas and doesn't lose the shape or appearance of what the garment is supposed to look like, I'm down with it. Plus, once you find your favorite pair of jeans you will wear them every where, hanging out, date night, playing with the kids because they are so comfortable. So, here is my round up of my favorite affordable jeans.

MOM FIT: the trend as come back around again with the relaxed fit and tapered leg. These jeans are so comfortable. Sometimes I like the bigger fit because these thighs need to breath.lol... I balance out the baggy fit with bodysuits and form fitting tops.

SKINNY JEAN: I have tried almost hundreds of brands from skinny jeans and I was always left underwhelmed.. The waist was too big, material stretches out with one wear and they made my butt look unflattering. But, Zara's jeans actually fit. And, I'm surprised. The waist band was almost perfect and the fabric was thicker and didn't stretch out. I style these with t-shirts or flowly tops.

PAPERBAG: Just like the Mom Fit. The PaperBag Jean is relaxed and pulls in the waist. But, it has a decorative waist band. All the positives of the mom fit and none of the negative. I style these with bodysuits.
