I first tried on these jeans at a store a month ago, but they weren't on sale, so I didn't buy them. I regretted it ever since!! So when I got a coupon in my e-mail for 25% off, I immediately ordered these. They only took 2 days to get here, and they were just as good as I remembered. I have a terrible time finding jeans that fit my curvy body. I usually have to be very careful about the back creeping down and showing too much of my backside off to the world!! These are high enough and stay up perfectly!! Even without a belt! I love the color and the contrasted stiching. I only wish they would have had the length I really needed in stock (I'm short, and need the 31" inseam, and even though they had plenty in the store, online it was not available). I'll wash them and see if they shrink up some, or just get them hemmed. Either way, its a small price to pay to have my backside protected!!
