The debate is over, I have finally found my absolute favorite jeans, PERIOD! Growing up I had a hard time finding jeans that would fit me well, my shape is petite with some curves and that meant that most denim that I tried on was either too long, the distressing didn’t line up to my knees, or I had a terrible gap of fabric at my lower back, so frustrating! When I came across these jeans while I was browsing around at Gap, I was immediately drawn to their stretch. Jeans with give always hugged me a little better so these were off to a great start.
I was never a huge fan of high waisted jeans because I always felt like they elongated an awkward part of your body. Is that a weird way to think…maybe, but I couldn’t get it out of my head so I never really gravitated toward the high waisted style. These, however, fit AMAZING. They slim in that pouchy region of your lower tummy (as seen in my photo above), aren’t too high where they are doubling as a push up bra and they overall make me feel pretty amazing 🙂 You can choose to expose the high waisted seam with a cropped or tucked in shirt, or have it hide under a regular length shirt, either way you feel super secure. I feel like when you put these on, you get a certain confidence, perhaps because you know you look great!
I love pairing these jeans with everything from sweatshirts, to fancy blouses and chunky knits. I wore them in the beginning of fall as well with a nice mule and a t-shirt. The washes and styles (they even come in distressed, see below!) make them so versatile for any time of the year.
Gap often holds sales on their website so always be on the lookout for a great one! Right now you can score some of these styles at an extra 40% off making some of them UNDER $40 which is an insane value. These are buttery soft, wash well and wear well. What are you waiting for…..go snag yourself a pair before the secret is out! 🙂

Love!! I have a similar problem with jeans except I’m a little tall with some curves. Jeans and most pants usually have a bunch of extra material in the crotch area when i wear them. I have one good solid pair of jeans but I need some options. Thanks for sharing!
