| Gotta love Apple Bottom jeans. Thank you Nelly! |
An in-betweener is that girl who is not the photocopy of a pencil, and is also not a cinnabon away from weighing 500 pounds. The in-betweener is the girl who is somewhere in the middle - not exactly skinny but not obese. Retailers here shop on both ends of the spectrum and then display these items for sale. Having discovered a hole in my work jeans, I ventured bravely (foolishly) into the mall to scout out a replacement pair. It's bad enough that my ba-dunk-a-dunk is outta control and I always...always have to buy a pair one size too large in the waist just so the jeans can get past my hips and ass (except when buying Apple Bottoms, which were made for the apple-licious figure. I love my Apple Bottoms!!).
It is even worse when your options are size nothing and size 28. I mean, how does that help me? I appreciate that someone out there who may be really really skinny or really really fat can look swanky in some jeans, but now I have to perhaps sew up this hole until I book a ticket to Miami or New York - just to get some jeans!! Or anything for that matter.
REALLY??
Annoying.
And I must apologise again for the sporadic blogging. Life happens. Work has been a bit stressful. I have been more than a bit exhausted every single day. I wish I could give you more adjectives but it can become a bit of a sad story if I do. I am okay. Just living. Thanks to everyone who still visits despite all this, and my own lack of regular reading of your blogs. I do try. I do. I am visiting today so keep an eye out for my comments.

Preach, trininista! Until recently (when my badonka-donk decided to join the J.Lo brigade), I had a model small waist and short legs.
ReplyDeleteThe jeans available for my legs have waists that are too wide, and vice versa. Only two pairs in my closet are unaltered and fit perfectly...well, used to. :(
No worries about your lack of presence, I am sure everyone understands as I do!
ReplyDeleteI really think jeans are made to fit....nobody....at all. Ever. I'm stick thin and I can't find anything that fits me either!
ReplyDeleteIn the US Levi's makes a style called fidgeting jeans. They solve the waist issue, fit well and arent high waisted. Might look into them I'd you're still searching.

ReplyDeleteI have sort of a weird shape and jeans shopping is the WORST.
