Ok so I don't even know how this is possible and I'm sure that they run big. But last night when my hubby-cakes and I went shopping I found myself strutting my stuff out of the dressing room to show my hubby-cakes. He was shocked that I even came out to show him. because I usually only end up coming out after I have already tried everything on (with no luck) and my arms empty because NOTHING fit.
Well that was not the case last night.
I want to thank the sales girl, she was very helpful. I went in with an open mind and told myself ok I'm just gonna grab all sizes and just see what fits best.
I like to shop at Nordstrom's for my jeans. I don't know why I just think they last longer. However it's a little hard to know what size I am at other places because I'm so use to their jean sizes. They go by waist size.
For a year or so I was fitting into a size 30 to 31 [which means 30-31 inch waist] I think it is converted to a woman's size 10.
So my first thought was to grab the size 29 and crossed my fingers that they would fit. Well they did not ... they were too big.
Then the sales lady brought me a size 28, too big.
size 27 too big.
As I was doing the skinny dance in the fitting room waiting for the sales lady to bring me the next size ... she brought me a SIZE 26.
THEY FIT!!! They fit tight but they fit and the pants have some stretch to them, which I like. I felt good in them not suffocating. I felt comfy and tall and they buttoned super easy.
I CAN NOT BELIEVE I WENT DOWN THAT MANY SIZES!!!! Unbelievable! Size 26 inch waist is a size 4. WTF?? INSANE!!
So here's what I bought:
7 For All Mankind® A-Pocket Stretch Jeans (Dark New York Wash)
Favorite-fitting stretch denim in a dark-blue wash is accented by subtle fading and slight distressing. Signature 'A' embroidery brands the back pockets, and a contoured waistband prevents gapping. Zip fly with button closure.
Five-pocket style.
Approx. inseam: 33" with 18" leg opening.
Approx. rise: front 8"; back 13".
Cotton/polyurethane or cotton/spandex; machine wash.



And this is a closeup of them, so excited about the size!! And this is me in them ... I fill them out quit a bit more than the model.
I really want to focus on toning up more than ever and continue to keep my meals clean. Bye-bye skinny fat and hellllllooo hot-buff-wife!!
