Like so many other women, I struggled with finding a good pair of jeans. While I am a total t-shirt and jeans sort of girl, sometimes finding those perfect jeans can be tough – and worse off, it can be depressing. Many times I have walked into a store optimistically shopping for a new pair of jeans and left feeling discouraged.
Denim seems to be the one article of clothing that we all find challenging but recently Bootlegger approached me to let me know about their Jeaneologists. These Jeaneologists are trained in understanding denim and women’s body concerns so that every woman (and man!) can walk into a Bootlegger to find their perfect jeans and leave feeling confident. Click through to read more on my experience with Bootlegger’s Jeaneologist and how I found my perfect jeans!
Growing up I was always pretty lanky, but when I was about 20 I suddenly noticed that my once-lanky body type had decidedly changed to be a bit curvier. I believe in embracing your body, but having been used to one body type and then having another threw me for a loop. While I always have liked the look of curves, I had zero idea how to dress them – and my biggest issue was denim. I found it nearly impossible to find a pair of jeans that worked with my hips, fitted my legs, and also were a proper length – because that’s the other thing, my legs are quite long and often “regular” lengths end up being capris on me.
The first pair of jeans that I felt really worked for my body type back when I was 20 was Silver Jeans. They were a bit stretchy and mmore forgiving in the hip area while also being fitted on my legs. So after sharing my body concerns with Nicole, Bootleggers Jeaneologist, it was no surprise that she ended up pulling a few different Silver Jeans for me to try! She knew exactly which brand and style of denim would work for me, and I ended up leaving with not only one pair of jeans – but I officially have three more on my wish list!
So cute! I love the ones you picked! Finding great jeans is always a task!

Wow this is such a helpful way to shop! It sounds like you had a great experience. I don't wear jeans very often because I wear a small waist size yet have long legs, and I always end up with them too short in the ankle or too big at the waist. Thanks for sharing this!

Silver Jeans remind me of high school and since then, I've never even thought to check and see if they still work for my body.
Thanks for the re-introduction to Bootlegger and Silver Bree!

Once I lose about 10-15 more pounds and I can fit into a size 14 comfortably, I will have to stop over to Bootlegger Jeans and get my perfect jeans… I have large hips and a smaller waist so I have always had problems as well xox
great post)))) i hope u've taken a few pairs of perfect jeans))))) xoxo
You look so lovely with smile on your face 🙂
I have some serious jeans shopping yet to come, don't like it very much because I have to try lots of pairs before I find one or maybe two that fit me perfectly.
