    What's your fav brand of jeans?

    Now that it's getting chilly, I have pulled out my stash of jeans only to find I can't fit into them with my extra baby weight. I've got a butt like Kim Kardashian so need to find something that doesn't give me the truckie bum look . I hate trying jeans on so please someone give me the heads up on where to look otherwise I will be walking around in the old faithful trakie dacks - not a pretty sight...

    I bought a pair of Jag ESPY jeans last year, and I LOVE them!! You can sometimes find them on ebay, because they get better with age.

    I love Bardot jeans - they are very small sizing, but they are fab - always make your bum look great!

    Nicambhar: theres a brand called 'Face Off' which make apple bottom jeans (the flares all the black booty chicks wear lol ) and ive got tonnes of pairs...they have heaps of different styles, diff colour denims and make any size butt look great. and they are pretty cheap like $50 a pair...not sure where they sell them over there but you can probably google them...over here they have them in chicks and unisex fashion boutiques...GL

    Apple Bottoms is actually a brand of jeans, the company is owned by Nelly (the rapper)

    I have three pairs of Jag ESPY jeans and I wear them every single day (almost, I probably wouldn't wear them to a wedding, depends on how formal it was ).

    I absolutely cannot recommend them highly enough.

    Sue – have you found some jeans you like?

    I've been wearing JayJay's jeans for years because they're cheap, cut very long in the leg (which I need, I cannot stand jeans that hike up and show my ankles when I sit down, I don't mind at all if they drag on the ground lol), and they do 'in-between' sizes (9, 11 etc instead of just 8, 10, 12, 14 etc)...
    My one gripe with them at the moment, which is forcing me out of my comfort zone in search of a different brand, is that they are slightly too low-waisted (I have that little muffin-top and need an extra inch or two in the waistband to cover it up), and that the majority of their bootcut styles (I'm a bit too thick in the torso to get away with skinny jeans, I have very slim legs/hips and bum but no waist and broad shoulders so need the flare in the legs to balance me out or I look ridiculously top-heavy) are a stretch denim rather than that really 'hard' denim with zero give.
    Sorry to hijack, Sue, but any recommendations would be most welcome!! I hope you've found a good pair to suit you!

    I ended up getting a pair of regatta jeans, but have since lost 4kgs, so that was a wasted exercise and a waste of money LOL... am happy with my loss though cause I'm down to a size 14 .
    I dug out a pair of jeans I have only worn once from Sussan's, and they fit like a glove. Am just waiting to at least get to a size 12 to go and buy another pair.

    i bought 2 pairs of espirt jeans from the outlet in paddys market when i was on holiday in sydney , but i lost weight too and now they are waaay too big and not even worth getting tailored , i bougght them in a 12 maybe .. and now im a 9 , jeans always stretch so its worth downsizing or going down half a size , i used to work in jeanswest , and i always told that to customers , and the ones that didnt listen always came back to complain as the jeans got too baggy after a few wears ...

    but i hate it when jeans are to low , i have big hip and am forever hiking my jeans over my hips as the ride down all the time ..

    agh jeans shopping sux , but glad you lost the weight and feel good in some jeans
