Finding the perfect pair of jeans
Comments (18)I hear ya ladies. I too have been through the discontinued jean's horror. I suffered through the 80's looking like I was waiting for a flood. I will never forget the impossible feat of trying to find size 5 pants with a 34" inseam. The only saving grace was the scrunch socks phase. They really did help fill in that gap between the shoes and the bottom of the pants.lol I understand getting pants that fit your hips only to have them not even touch your waist. I solved that problem by gaining a belly. Not the best option, but it worked.lol I am also short waisted. For me the perfect jeans right now are made by Bill Blass. They are stretch jeans, but look like regular jeans. The stretch is more comfortable and way more forgiving. They come in Long, regular and short length's. I find they hit me right at the belly button. The best part is I only pay $20 for them. What more can a girl ask for? They are comfortable, they come in normal denim colors, they fit, they don't look bad and they don't cost a fortune! Knowing my luck they will be discontinued next month.lol Foxy....See MoreJean Jean the Garden Queen's George Burns!
Comments (9)Amazing amount of blooms!!! Really gorgeous. The blooms look EXACTLY like my All American Magic - I wonder if I have a mislabelled rose. Someone posted their pictures of AAM - and I posted mine - but they didn't look the same. So maybe I DO have George Burns?? I'll try and find a picture. Carol...See MoreMy jeans are SO loose
Comments (19)I lost 40 pounds since July and having fun buying all new clothes. I don't care that I'm wearing jeans from stores that teens and young adults shop in. The only problem I have is the mid-rise jeans are not mid-rise anymore. They're low rise. I simply wear a belt and bought a lot of tunic style tops. Maybe you need to be fitted properly for a bra. I have to buy mine online (www.figleaves.com). I went into Victorias Secret yesterday to buy a convertible bra so I can wear tops with spaghetti straps this summer. The girl measure me the strangest way! Across my back, then up over top of my boobs for the band size! Then she did the fullest part and concluded my bra size. I took the bra she chose and knew before I even tried it on there was so way it would fit. I ended up buying my bra online. I'll have it in 3 weeks..... I used to buy a lot of clothes at Sears too. But I found when I went there to buy a dress to wear to our company Christmas dinner most of the clothes they carry now, my grandmother would not have worn. Their styles are so outdated and ugly. I ended up buying my dress at Le Chateau, which when they first opened, I called: Le Shat-ho.Most of the clothing they used to carry I only pictured hookers wearing. They've changed a lot. I've bought five new pairs of jeans in the past 3 weeks. 1 pair of Guess Jeans. 1 pair of Brody jeans, 1 pair of store brand (Bootlegger) jeans, and 2 pair of Silver jeans. I LOVE the Silver jeans. They're from a Canadian based company (Winnipeg) and the material is thicker. They're stone washed and extremely comfortable. I used to buy my jeans at a western wear store. My favourites for years were Aura jeans by Wranglers. But they don't make my style anymore and the jeans they do make have so much bling on the back pockets, and I don't need people staring at my butt. ;) The only problem I'm having is buying a pair of knee high dress boots. My calves are 16" around and most boots are 14" - 15". I've about given up. I did buy one pair of ankle boots that I love. Maybe I'll just find another pair with a bit of a heal on them and give in to defeat. Or defeet..... ;)...See MorePrayer request for my cousin Jean.
Comments (61)Thank you Tina. Jeannie, has been strong for so long that it makes sense she breaks down now and then. I think she feels comfortable doing so with me. She knows I can take it. After all we come from the same strong bloodline. Granted, I often break down after we hang up or this weekend on the way back to the hotel, but if she can be strong going through all this, I can be strong for her when she needs it. I thought I'd be able to cry with her, thinking it would make her feel loved, but it just didn't seem right. I did tear up, but the bloodline kicked in and the strength took over. It's just the way we are. Saturday our daughter texted to tell me that a neighborhood friend of hers and her brothers, (we all knew him and his family well, but lost touch after we moved) died last Wednesday. Our son who went to the visitation Sunday and found out it was cancer. He had a brain tumor when he was about three, shortly after we moved to the neighborhood. He was 29. Thank you Jen. I'm so glad she's home too. I don't know if I mentioned earlier, but her hubby had just been in the hospital about a week before she was. He's an artificial valve. I was thinking it was something else, but found out this weekend that it's a valve. I'm going to call Jeannie tomorrow during the day hoping she's feeling more up to talking or maybe even Skyping. I want to thank you all for giving me this outlet to talk about Jeannie as it's helping me more than you know. I know your prayers are helping Jean, and the rest of us, too. Thank you!...See MoreKitchenwitch111
