| I am tall 5/10, 50 and don't wear jeans often. I am looking for a pair that will look good with casual sneakers this fall. That last part is the key. Oh and a pair that works with the menopausal belly. |
| I like frame le crop mini boot. If you’re interested in more interesting shapes, the curve everlane denim is very cool looking and actually works with lots of shoe styles. |
| Can’t go wrong with a good straight leg jean or a classic, 100% cotton Levi’s 501. |

I LOVE J. Crew's Vintage Slim Straight jeans. They are perfect. I have 2 pairs.

| What size are you? |
| I buy all my jeans from Nordstrom Rack. Never over $50, and I aim for straight leg or boyfriend style. |
How is this helpful? |
Size 8. |

For two different price points (former high, latter low), I love Frame - the Le Jane and Abercrombie - 90's straight leg.
The trick with wearing jeans with sneakers is getting the right length. If it's a straight leg jean you probably want a little bit of a crop, or else the jean sort of bumps into the sneaker in an unflattering way. If it's a wider leg style/boot cut/flare, length is less of an issue because it can lay nicely over the sneaker. |
| I mean, really, you have to go to the mall and try every brand. I love AG - and while they are normally expensive, there are a lot of 50% off sales once you know what works for you. |
By telling OP to start at Nordstrom Rack. |

5’9 and these are my go-tos.

In that case, maybe go to Bloomingdales or Nordstrom and just try a bunch on. Once you find a brand you like, you can order online. |
| Try Democracy ab solution jeans. I love them. I'm 5'7 and a size 6/8 and these jeans are awesome. I usually buy them at Nordstrom rack or Sierra (assuming regular Nordstrom sells them too) |
