I have two pair of these, one from last year and one my sister gave me this year. I told her the style and size, so they should fit right? My old pair is snug, makes my butt look great and fits just the way I like them! The new pair is about a size and a half too large and cut larger throughout so the thighs and calves are much larger too! No comparison. If you want to order online try a size smaller. Better yet J.C. Penny normally caries these in all sizes. Might be better to try these on!
