How to Find the Right Jeans for your Body Type
If you've been following me for a while on social media, you know I have a deep obsession with all things denim! I love jeans in all shapes, cuts, and style.
I get asked a lot of questions about where and how to find the right pair of jeans.
The truth is, you can buy jeans anywhere. However, before you start, you need to know what type of jeans work for your specific body type. I know you're probably thinking "Jeans are jeans, why do I need to care about my body type to buy some "? Well, you do! All jeans are not created equal!!
So, here's my guide to helping you find the perfect jeans for your body type!
Long Torsos
Women with long torsos tend to have a higher midsection. This means that it's hard to find jeans that sit right at the hips. So, a good pair of jeans to buy would be high-rise styles or styles that have a longer inseam.

Tall
For tall women, it's hard to find jeans that don't make you look like you are still in high school; you know that awkward above the ankle vibe. For my tall ladies, look for jeans that come in extra long styles. Another option is to look for ankle jeans that actually ankle length on purpose.

The Flat Booty
Even if the curvy genes skipped your generation, it doesn't mean that you cant get a pair of jeans that make your butt look super good. A good tip is to look for jeans with big pockets in the back. It helps create the illusion that your butt is actually being " lifted ".

Petite
When it comes to being petite, most women find that the length of the jeans is the main issue. Not only that, but the waist can be a bit off as well. Look for jeans that are specifically made for petite bodies or you can also buy cropped cut jeans as well. They help to make your body look elongated.

Blessed Big Booty
I have a lot of "blessed" friends that can't seem to find jeans that enhance their beautiful curves, without making their butt look flat. My tip for them is to look for high-waisted flare jeans, boyfriend jeans, but most importantly, jeans with some extra stretch to them.

Round Tummy
After I had my son , my biggest body concern was my midsection. If the midsection is your "problem area" definitely consider wearing high-rise jeans. Denim that stretches is also a great pair to have.

Plus Size
For my gorgeous plus size girls, mid to high-rise fit jeans will be your best friend. Buying denim that has a lot of stretch to it will give you a better silhouette and also elongate you.

Large Thighs
I've currently lost weight, but 8 months ago, this is the category I would have fallen into! My go-to styles were Flare jeans, boyfriend jeans, and skinny jeans. I would typically go for the ones that had a really good stretch to them.

Big Hips
I envy those with big hips! You guys literally make anything look good. However, I also understand that it's hard to find the right pair of denim that makes you look like you're not pushing to be overly sexy. It's best to stay away from low-rise skinny styles, it's not going to show your figure the way you want to. High-rise cropped styles will be your best friend.
