Purchased these on a whim . I actually like really like them And u cant beat the price . I usually wear a 6 in gap jeans and don't have much luck in other brands . I purchased a 7 originally but were a little snug as they're junior sizing . Returned for the 9 and they fit great . These are mid rise style, stretchy and fit great if You have carry a little more weight in your hip/ thighs area. Really cute jeans at an affordable price . Im 59 and 138 lbs
