Denim Disappointment

One word: Ugh. I got my shipment from Avenue with my Seven Seven dark rinse straight leg jeans. I had such high hopes. I shouldn't have been so naive! They did what many a pants have done before them--fit well in the hips/thighs, but gaped wildly around the waist. According to Avenue's instructions, I ordered a larger size than normal, so now I'm wondering if I went down a size...I don't think that will help that much. Sigh. All I want is a pair of nice-fitting dark wash jeans!

I was given false hope last week when I saw Calvin Klein Jeans is now making plus sizes. I loved a pair of jeans I had when I was smaller, so I was pretty jazzed. I saw them in Macy's and was super excited, but I tried both styles (bootcut and flare), and both of these gaped so much in the back of my waist, I could of used that area to carry my lunch or something.

I suppose if finding a pair of jeans is my biggest problem, I should be so lucky, but why must it be so dang difficult?!
