Levi's Curves - Tried & Tested Reviews

In my perfect world, the perfect jeans will:
  1. miraculously uplift my bum making it look like jessica alba's (pre or post birth...she looks annoyingly good either way!)
  2. miraculously makes my legs look long and lean (instead of short and stumpy)
  3. does NOT gape at the waist but fits PERFECTLY at the bum and hips
  4. no whiskering, fading, funny pockets, etc.
  5. dark indigo
  6. wide and low waistband
but in reality, this does NOT exist (at least not according to the depth of my pocket).

so, desperate me decided to "squeeze" into a pair of Levi's Curves (click here for the previous post).

the only fit available was the 'slim fit' (looks like a pair of skinny jeans) in dark indigo.

the things i love about the jeans:
  1. does not cut off my blood circulation - stretchy material
  2. fits perfectly at the waist and bum (however does not make my bum look like jessica alba's at all) - contoured for curvy bottoms
  3. no muffin top - low waisted
  4. probably the only skinny jeans i will ever get to fit in and look moderately ok
  5. no whiskering or fading - which are a BIG NO-NO for big bottoms (unless you wear a long top to cover them)
the things i am not too ecstatic about the jeans:
  1. after wearing it for one whole day, the "just nicely tight" began to give and felt somewhat "baggy" (but fortunately doesn't look it) - this is probably due to the stretchy material
  2. i still look like a sausage - though, that is because i DO have short, stumpy legs
wahey, that is the only thing that i don't really like about it! it may not make me look like jessica alba or eva longoria or cameron diaz...but it will do for now!

Note: For curvy bottoms like mine...PLEASE PLEASE pair your "skinny" jeans with long tops. trust me, it is far more flattering. :)

checked with the sales assistants, and other fits (bootcut and straight cut) will be available end March 2009!
