Where Are My People?

A few days ago, my friend, Carrie, posted on her blog that she had purchased "Curvy" jeans at The Gap. They have a style called Curvy?! I knew right then that must have some. Finding jeans to fit my figure is always a challenge in the mainstream stores. I have issues finding pants that fit my round heinie and my smaller waist at the same time. They generally get all gappy in back where my rear sticks out further than it's allowed, and I end up showing my underpants to the world in a not-so-sexy fashion. I guess the perfect woman, who must be the target demographic in these stores, has no hips to speak of and a boney little butt. As if that weren't enough to wreak havoc on my closet, she also seems to have ridiculously long legs that defy the laws of physics.

The Gap is finally embracing my body type! It seemed like a once in a lifetime opportunity, and I was ready to jump on it! And, although, I generally don't shop there, I hopped in my bandwagon and drove on over to my nearest Gap store.

I tried on several pairs of Curvy style jeans in varying sizes. I was sorely disappointed, however, when they still gapped in back and hugged in all of the wrong places. So, it is official...

I am even too curvy for Curvy jeans.

Does anyone have any ideas on where a round-assed white girl can find a pair of jeans that actually fit?
