When you find that perfect pair of jeans….you know…the ones that make your rear defy gravity, the ones that round out your tush just so…when you find them, you stand a little taller, you tuck in your shirt and you strut. Don’t deny it.
There are certain things like wash, placement of the seams, the rise, the pocket placement, fading... they all change the look on one’s body. Women with a small tush look best in some, curvier women might find another cut and style more flattering.
I grabbed 22 pairs of premium jeans from the sale to try on and show you how different they can look. That’s my same curvy tush, same day... way different from behind. Choose your favorites.
