Gave me hope that it's THEM(i.e. the fashion industry), not me when I have to search a thousand miles to find the right pair of jeans. I'm probably a campana, so GOD, is it hard to find jeans that flatter and not make my hips look like my sole purpose in life is childbirth. And then secretly wanting to kick all those models in their skinny, size o, twig-leg jeans. grins. Hey Mariko, enjoyed this post.
