The jean challenge

I really have a love/hate relationship with jeans.  I don't think ever in my life have I found the pair that I just love.  Personally, I think they're just uncomfortable.  I'm always tugging, or adjusting them.  They slip down, or pinch my "mommy belly", or drag on the floor, etc... I know every fashionista will laugh and say TAILOR in a "duh" sort of way, but let's be real... I'm too lazy to get all my jeans tailored.  I also don't want to spend the extra money to have it done when I already forked out $100 to buy what I thought was the perfect jean.

So I am on a sort of mission.  I mission that I can accomplish in the Monterey area.  Someone suggested  Banana Republic.  I know everyone's bodies are different, but I went to my local BR and checked them out.  There was a trouser jean there that I ADORED!  

The darker the jean the better.  Now, of course these were too long, but looked awesome on me.

I tried these on too.  Now, a jegging isn't ideal for my body type.  I am a bit bigger on the bottom and have tree trunk legs, so jeggings kind of accentuate those.  But, what else am I going to tuck my boots into?

That's all I have for now.  On to find more!
