Another poster here for Loehmann's, NM Studio, and Nordstrom's. But if I cannot find anything I like at any of those stores, I go to Bloomingdale's. Have had great luck with salespeople suggesting brands and cuts for me. I have patronized Denim Bar, but find the owner to be quite disrepectful of his staff. I really don't like giving my money to a bad business owner.

Stay away from Old Navy Jeans. It has spandex which makes the rear stretch out like crazy and droop.

There is a Joe's Jeans outlet in Leesburg. They don't do returns so be sure you are 100% sold on what you buy. I love their jeans, BTW. I'm 5'8" and 135, wear a 29 which is about an 8, I think.

What do they look like? I have not seen a pair that I like so far.

Thanks

I've had good experience with Nordstroms, both Tysons and Pentagon City. Definitely helpful sales people.

I've tried other brands, and I also come back to Seven for All Mankind jeans. Love them. I've heard good things about Paige as well, but haven't tried them. I'm close to OP's size - 5'3", 125.

1/15 16:47. The short Nordstrom poster here. In addition to the length I also had them taken in at the waist so I won't have that big gap in the back so when I bend over my crack won't show. I bought a pair of 7 for All Mankind and Paige. I work out a lot and I tend to build muscle. I general I am very stocky. 5'0" and 125. I can't wait to pick them up on Saturday.

If you have a Nordstrom's card, you get 100 in free alterations per year. A regular hem is free anyway but if you want them to put the jean hem back on it is extra as is the waist alteration.

I am a J Brand fanatic. They are expensive, but you can usually find them at Loehmann's, Neiman Marcus Last Call or Off Fifth. They fit beautifully.

I'm with you nothing beats a good old pair of Levi's jeans.
