Jeans

I am looking for suggestions on jeans. I have a "skin apron" on my lower belly, so I have to buy bigger in the waist, but then they're too loose in my legs/thighs. Anyone have any suggestions on brands/styles to try?

Thanks!

I do like Gap and Old Navy. They have clearance racks. Try everything on. One size can fit better than another. Even the same style can be like that. 

I never thought I would wear skinny jeans but I do like them.

I never thought I would own a pair of skinny jeans either, but I do have a pair that I like. However, I only wear them with tall boots. So I need a "tshirt and jeans" pair of jeans now :)

I got a couple pair or Silver brand jeans from my friend.  They are expensive, but the style Suki really fit well.  They have a little bit of stretch and squish everything until it looks almost flat.  

What size are you wearing right now, if you don't mind my asking?

The jeans I wore this weekend were a 13 from Express.

Do you know what stores carry the Silver jeans? Macy's maybe?

I just googled them and they are at Macy's.  

I wear a women size 12, and Silver runs in waist size, so I'm wearing a 31 waist right now.  I have a pair of 30 waist as well, but I haven't tried those on in a while.  I'll likely try this weekend.  I'm bigger in the middle with a skin apron, too.  I can't wait to get to goal so I can look into surgery.

I honestly wasn't sure what was going to fit so I ordered like 7 pair from swap.com (since I'm losing and didn't mind 2nd hand, what am I kidding I always buy 2nd hand or new just depends which is cheaper). I send back for free what didn't fit right.

I ended up with - Levis, lee mid rise. The low cut ones just don't work well for me.

I got my last pair at Target (which was last summer before Target pulled out of Canada, stupid Target, I loved you!)  The jeans were regular $29.99 and going out of business sale I got them for $7.99!

I am interested in what others post as I need jeans too!!  Good luck shopping when you go!
