    O.P Express makes a mid-waist jeans "curvy style", those jeans are low-rise at the front but a little higher on the back ( for people with round butt), so you don't have to be worry about showing your crack. I use them and I love the way I look with those jeans.

    I've found similar cuts from (juniors) Wallflowers brand, LOFT, and Target. Usually called curvy skinny, curvy fit, etc. They are great!

    OMG I was going to recommend the WallFlower Brand (at Kohl's - and inexpensive!). WallFlower Curvy Girl Skinny or bootcut are great. Unfortunately they don't come "short." but I have a small waist and round booty. My sister has a similar problem and also loves WallFlower. they have a wide waistband. You can also go directly to their website.

    The pockets on those jeans are too low for you. They are turning your butt into your thighs. Maybe that's a personal preference but I won't buy pants if the pockets are that low.

    I may be old, but I miss the fit of the jeans in the 80's on women.

    I like this blog on where pockets will fit to look good. I always liked American Eagle Artist jeans for low rise booty jeans for myself. I need a higher back and lower rise just how my body naturally is.

    Low rise jeans are awful! I just found some mid rise jeans at express that are pretty comfy. I am looking for more places that carry mid rise :)

    Levi's and Lucky Brand make mid-rise jeans.

    I think *you* look good. Those jeans seem to fit well in the sense of hugging without balloon, cling, or cut.

    But...

    The pocket placement sucks. The bottom of the pocket is all the way down on your leg.

    I don't think a casual observer would notice, but I'd probably wear those for yard work or fixing cars, not as fashion.

    I think they look fine on you, but I would suggest different underwear (to maximize your bootilisciousness). The pockets are sitting where they are supposed to, I don't know what the previous poster is going on about. I think you look great.

    This^^

    The pockets are too low and that extra panel above them looks weird. But your *kitten* looks great.

    stick to jeggings. Those jeans you are wearing are even making me feel uncomfortable.


    Where the crotch area is or the separation of the jeans into the legs, will help you determine if the pocket was meant to cup your *kitten* or not...

    I'm so glad you posted, because I seriously had no idea that Kohl's carried them or that you could go directly to the WallFlower website. I don't usually shop juniors but happened upon them on Amazon and have ordered eight pairs in various sizes along the way. Now I'll know where to look aside from Amazon! Thanks!

    Until menopause, I was an hourglass with my waist ten inches smaller than my butt, curvy hips and shapely butt.. Menopause redistributed my weight and deleted my butt. I have postmenopausal blob syndrome-- too thick of waist, straight/narrow of hips, flat/saggy of *kitten*. This makes buying jeans a real challenge! For fit in a denim jean, my American Eagle mid-rise size 4 denim jeans fit the best of any brand. I have had other great-fitting jeans in the past, when I was a little heavier, with American Eagles as well, and also Angels brand, Levi's, and sometimes Old Navy. For non-jean pants, nothing beats my Merona skinny pants, size 4 mid-rise, from Target. I have only one pair of pants that actually makes my butt look good. They are size 4 Old Navy Rock Star mid-rise pinwale corduroy skinnies. They compress my butt so much that it is unable to sag! The trade-off is, they give me a muffin top. And, they are too tight for me to wear unless I am at my normal weight. The Merona pants NEVER give me a muffin-top even when I am over my normal weight, like now. The trade-off is, they don't compress my butt. I am curious as to whether Spanx would compress my butt so it doesn't look droopy under my jeans. They are so expensive so I have never tried them.
