O.k So I tried on a pair of skinny jeans today. To my suprise they didn't look all that bad, if I don't count my tummy.
I am about to head into jeans shopping hell.
I hate jeans shopping with the passion of 1000 burning suns.
it does me no favours and I very rearly come away with something I like or looks good.
Part of that problem is my belly, well actually all of that problem is my belly.
it's large, and over hangy from having had child and gaining and losing weight over the last few years.
But in saying that I need a pair of jeans I have 2, 1 of which is about to fall apart.
But there in lays the problem. I'd like a pair that are flattering.
which usually means hipsters as they don't go neaar my belly button and thus make my belly look worse, BUTT is the next problem I have one, along with hips. Oh not to mention mid to high rise jeans are fashionable at the moment.
So what the fuck is a girl to do I mean seriously I'm not a skirt wearer, I don't want dress pants, what the hell am I going to do?
Scour every known shop in welly for jeans?
Jay jays and jeans west and levi don't do anything in my size, famrers are hit and miss, warehouse I don't even look at.
I mean seriously.
And if i can get something that fits over my ample butt and hips then they are too big in the waist.
I mean is it really that hard to ask for something that is snug, which after 2 days of wearing it doesn't look like i've pooped myself, comfortable, so I can actually breath, bend over, chase my son round the park, doesn't make me look like i'm trying to recapture lost teenage years, and is long enough in the leg that they actually go past my ankles? Oh and doesn't suck in my lower belly enough that I look like i have a spare tire just under my boobs????
