Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

I prefer boyfriend jeans. They are relaxed in the butt, hip, thigh, and straight down the legs. None of this tight-as-spandex on the butt and thighs, then flare at the knees crap, none of this tight-as-snake-skin all the way down business, (I lied, I do have one or two pairs of skinny jeans, which I bought for less than $4 each at Goodwill so I'd have something to wear my thigh-high boots with in the winter. But I do not wear them on a day-to-day basis, yuck.) I dislike jeans that I am afraid to kneel or squat down in, I dislike jeans that are saggy and droopy. (In other words, I can't buy 'fashionable' jeans just a size too big or whatever to make them work.) I dislike flare/bootcut jeans because I trip over the hems because the hems are too stinking wide. Plus who likes to look down and not be able to see their feet because their dumb old 70's style (not QUITE bell-bottoms but darn close!) jeans are so big at the bottom? And I HATE jeans that show my underwear when I bend or sit. And I hate high-waisted jeans. ._. Picky, picky. God, I hate high-waisted jeans.

Relaxed. Effing. Jeans. That's all I ask! Low rise, relaxed fit, normal old damn jeans.

I used to could get them at Vanity, they used to be the Tyler fit. But then Vanity went and changed their stupid Tyler fit from boy cut to boot cut. ><

So I've been looking everywhere and no one bloody has them. I gave up and tried to just shop for men's jeans. Well, why not? If I like the boy style, I may as well shop in the boy department. But the only store we have around here that sells a variety of plain old boys' jeans is Wal-mart. Wal-mart carries two sizes for boys: Tiny and Leprechaun. Wal-mart carries two sizes for men. Ginormous and Humongous.

My size is 26W/31L. I don't even know what that translates to in non-Vanity sizes. 4? 5? Anyways, it's impossible to find mens' jeans with a 26 waist that's anything longer than like 12 inches in the leg around here. If I try to go by inseam length and do happen to find a 31-inch inseam in the mens' department, the waist also like 30 inches. On all of them! Effs. What the heck is wrong with mens' bodies?

So I finally found a couple pair of boyfriend style jeans at Alloy. They are more expensive than Vanity plus it's going to be a pain in the arse to talk my husband into them because he hates buying overpriced, under-quality products with an added $10 shipping charge for something that I can't even try on first and see if it fits. Effing jeans!
