Gap Skinny Jeans

nda_roxybabe

Anyone tried 'em? I've heard good thing about them but I'm curious. As well as I can remember Gap's jeans don't fit me well but I'm hoping their skinny ones will. I'm going to try them on Thursday buuut wanted to get any input beforehand. Any other good under $100 skinny jeans I should try?
Old navy and AE flat out do not work for me.

I used to like jeans from Express.  I know nothing about the Gap skinny jeans.

My sister is petite like you are and she raves about Gap jeans.  She often gets them when they go on sale and I really like the pairs she has.

I got a pair of jeans for $1 at Walmart yesterday.
 That doesn't answer your question; I just wanted to share.

I actually got an $18 pair of Miley Cyrus skinnys from Walmart. Normally I am not a fan of Walmart but they had some cheap tanks that I liked and I came across the jeans. The sizes are weird though. I tried on 3 pair that were the same size and they all fit different. Target has some cute skinnys too. I am broke though, hence my lack of "fashionable" jeans.

ETA- $1 Jas? Now my $18 just sounds expensive.

Jas- that's awesome!

I actually have a 30% off coupon for Gap so I'm hoping it'll work out... my lack of butt and my long legs make it hard though

Why does shopping have to be so complicated? First the boots, now jeans. I have always had trouble finding jeans that are long enough and don't make my butt look like a pancake.

nda_roxybabe

Kayla- yea, a lot of them make my butt look super flat. I don't think shopping is easy for many people, there's always something harder to find....

I can't be bothered with skinny jeans because I have muscle toned calves so I think they look wierd. I just stick to leggings as far as form fitting bottoms.

See, I'm very narrow on the top (shoulder, chest) and narrow in my legs. The weight I have I carry in my stomach/ hip area so I'm afraid skinny jean emphasize that but I really want a pair.

KaylaSue19

Roxy- Very true. Come to think of it I got some jeans at Marshall's or TJ Maxx that were actually pretty flattering. If the Gap doesn't work for you, you could try there. I got some Guess jeans that I am thinking would have been 3 times more at their actual store. They are pretty helpful in the rear end area.

Love Gap Skinny Jeans! I think they fit very well and you get to wear a size smaller than you normally are because they run big. 

Old Navy makes me throw up in my mouth a little. Sorry.

I am a total gap jean whore. Skinny, boot cut, alllll of them. Plus they have long, regular, and short and I am a tall lady and the longs even fit me.. plus give me some wiggle room if I want to wear heel and not look like I am ready for a flood. 

I support Gap Skinny Jeans. I voted for them in the election.

<div>Lack of butt and long legs are just what you need for skinny jeans-though I think people with small to medium butts and short girls can look good in them, too. My niece is built like you and looks great in Victoria's Secret skinny jeans. Not a place you usually think of for jeans, but they have many to choose from in their catalog. I wear their (non skinny) jeans when my ever fluxing size allows. </div>

<div>Agreed. There was a flap when they stopped carrying plus sizes in their stores. I thought it was great at least a segment of the population was being spared their crappy clothes. I have seen a few okay Old Navy items, but just a few.</div>

Try Guess jeans.  They are pretty much all I wear because they don't stretch out and they last.  They are good quality.  I don't have a butt, but I also do not have long legs and they fit nicely but are way too long.

The daredevil skinny jeans.  They are great!  Plus, sometimes they fit too big, so they make you feel awesome.  Like I'm usually a 27, sometimes a 26 and I fit comfortably (no muffin top) in a 24 in daredevil skinnys!  lol.  I bought them pretty much because of that!

Unfortunately, GAP jeans are some of the only jeans that really fit me well (at least taht I care to pay for).  I say unfortunately because although they fit well and are cute, I think for how much you pay, unless you get them on sale, the quality is pretty poor.  They stretch out super fast and wear out fast.  I''ve had a pair for about 7 months and they're wearing through in spots.  Some styles seem to hold up better than others.  I wouldn't know about the skinnies because I don't wear them.

Roxy-  My sister is built similar to you and she loves Gap skinny jeans.  She has very long skinny legs and they look great on her. I say go for it.

amylydia23

Oh, and for suggestions.  Abercrombie Erin skinny jeans.  I haven't tried the super skinny ones they came out with but I love their Erin skinny.  I got a pair a few months ago for about $15 on clearance when they had an additional 50% off all redlines.

I think I have Gap skinny jeans..it's either gap or banana republic (same company) and I LOVE them. Wear them all the time. And I used to waste money on $200 pairs of Seven's or Citizen's, and these are the same if not better! (the Seven's got holes in them!)

Marrin713

Oh, if only I could <sigh>.................  But in general I do like Gap jeans.

Love my gap skinny jeans! Bring the boots you want to wear them with into the store though. I think they have skinny, then a skinnier jean.. I ended up getting 2 different styles and one fits in my boots much nicer. they wash great and do not stretch out! it might be a canadian thing but if you sign up for the gap email they will send you coupons almost every week.. and often have a coupon book that is a coupon a week, only able to be used on wednesdays for a few months.
