  1. It is the fit that matters, not the label. 

Doesn’t matter what size the label says, measurements can vary across the different brands. So don’t be fixated on the previous size you used to own but pay more attention to how it fits you.

2. It is okay to struggle in them on your first try

They should dig into your skin at first, but eventually they are bound to loosen up as the months go by. Women who make the common mistake of getting jeans that feel comfortable and roomy end up buying jeans that are in fact, too big for them.

3. Look for a darker wash instead of a lighter one

They are generally more flattering for women with larger hips. Plus they look much smarter than one of a lighter wash!

4. Experiment with the distressed trend to your advantage

Keeping up with the latest trends can be fun but it should also suit your body shape. Jeans that are distressed, will amplify those particular areas where the rip is.

5. If you have shorter legs, always stick to a high waisted fit

If you’re worried about your legs looking stouty in jeans, opt for high waisted ones that are perfect for elongating your legs and making them look longer.
