i can never find any good, cheap jeans. i'm super skinny (0/00?) and really tall, so it's a hard combo. either the pants aren't fitting around the butt or they're too short.
i usually get a size up so my legs dont look too skinny (they're not pretty at all- more ugly and lanky) but no pair of jeans has ever fit me perfectly. i haven't found one good pair of skinnies :'(

where do you get your nice fitted jeans? tall girls, help a sister outttt

Ive gotten mine from american eagle. The problem i always have is that im skinny and i have long legs so i could never find anything as easy to fit the two until i bought a pair from there.

I really wouldn't suggest AE jeans if you're really skinny. My friend is pretty skinny, and she can never find jeans from there - they always end up being far too baggy.

my guy friend who is super skinny & super tall gets his jeans from Gap. i think he said they come in 2x long and stuff so it fits him. i don't know tho. i don't get my jeans from there. check it out?

edit (cause the person below me can't read :]): my friend is a guy, but he buys GIRL jeans from Gap because they are a better fit.

I was going to suggest that too. Uniqlo's such a great value.

YUS inorite? in hk they're even cheaper. I can get mine for around $30-40 a pair.

I've never found a good pair of jeans from there though. Partly because I'm in denial about my size and partly because (I think) I have a really awkward body type. I'm in-between sizes and I'm not built like a "normal" chubby girl. I would love to get jeans from there though.

I've had no luck with AE :'(

Thanks for the Uniqlo suggestion though. I'm from NJ and I go to the city a lot :D I'll check it out for sure.

Thanks again :)

I don't know if you have that store there but they sell size 00's and usually it's very cheap, when it's on sale its $10.

aeropostale, ae and express don't really do skinny jeans.

i have a pretty easy body to fit, so i find i can pick up jeans pretty much anywhere as long as they have stretch... i can't stand jeans without stretch. but if you find a pair of pants that fit well in the leg but don't fit in the butt/waist, buy them anyway and get them altered. it's not hard to take them in that way and i don't think it's too expensive.

i'm pretty much the opposite bodytype of you. i'm short (5'2) and around a size 4/5. i find banana republic and club monaco have the best selection of jeans, but i also really like paige denim, true religion, and 7 for all mankind.

Im really skinny to and have almost the same problem... I buy jeans from Rock and Republic. There skinny collection is what i buy from and they fit my skinny a** really good.

I just needed to say one more thing. WTF i didnt even know they made jeans for 40 dollars, wtf! haha, where can i buy jeans for 40 dollars?
misoshiru
uh...a lot of places. I got a new pair of DKNYs at a consignment store for $25, and a new pair of Earnest Sewn's also at a consignment store for $25. And, I've bought 2 pairs of Sisley jeans at the store for about $60.
