Trying on jeans is akin to bathing suit shopping for most of us: small in the waist but too big in the hips, fits in the legs, too large in the waist–I could go on, but why bother when you have J Brand? First I must disclose that I have sold jeans before–traveling around and doing trunk shows at various locations. I saw first hand the process of jean ‘fitting’. One group of women swore that a foolproof way to know if the jeans fit you–place the waist of the buttoned jeans around your neck, if you can touch the waist at the front of your neck they will fit you. That process actually worked for a few attendees including myself.
But I digress. Let’s talk about J Brand jeans. They come in so many unique styles and finishes; high, med and low waist; light heavy and dark fades; coated, capri, ankle and boot cut. Need I go on?? They are the mecca of jeans–the fit is superb–there is something suitable for all shapes and sizes. I recently bought white–yes white–quite a departure for me, but so so cute. Skinnies with cute zip details. I have always used the advice that one high-end sales person gave me: always go up a size in most white clothing–it just looks more finished and tailored. And I think at one point you just have to take the dive. That said, I’m always sure the tush is covered–a sheer hip length black blouse with with a fitted jacket with a pair of cute wedges. Done and done.
Give it a shot. Add J Brand the next time you have a pile of jeans on your arm and hoping for a net of one with a great fit.
