I feel like I pretty much have the most awkward body ever to shop for. I’m sure as you read this, you’re going, girrrrllll, me too!. That’s because we are all unique and that’s beautiful!
My fit dilemma, is I’m terribly short, like under 5 foot. But, I have the hips of a much taller girl, or so I like to tell myself. No matter how skinny I may be, the majority of any weight I carry is in my bottom. So, when it comes to finding a good pair of pants, they are either too long or too tight in the hips, but loose everywhere else, etc. etc.
I’ve tried on pants at nearly every store I can think of, including Old Navy. In the past, Old Navy’s pants ran too large for me and weren’t a possibility. However, Erica recently grabbed a pair of black denim from there and I loved them so much, I decided to give Old Navy another try. I ordered a pair of their Mid-Rise Rockstar Jeans in distressed black and I also ordered a pair of Mid-Rise Pixie Pants in Ankle. I ordered both online because well…we’ve talked about shopping with children. When that little package came in the mail…I was pleasantly surprised.
They both fit! Nearly perfectly. The Rockstar Jeans have a raw hem, so I think I just lucked out because it makes them a little shorter than their typical jeans, so they may be more of an ankle length on an average height girl, but for me they are perfect! Perfect in the hips, waist and length, the trifecta! Now, I feel like I basically have to dry clean my $20.00 Old Navy pants if I want to keep them from fading and falling apart, but that’s ok, I’m willing to do that, haha!
The other pair, the ankle Pixie Pants, were also perfect. I wore them here. They were also an ankle length, so probably intended to show a little more ankle than they do on me, but who’s watching!
So, for any other height/hip/thigh challenged girls out there like me, give Old Navy another try, you may be pleasantly surprised!
