I have thick thighs so I bought a size bigger than normal.  They fit so great I ordered them in another color.  I am just sorry they ran out of the copper color before I could purchase them too.  They have a nice sparkle to them without being uncomfortably scratchy on the inside from the metallic thread like others I have tried on.  They don't cut off your circulation by being too tight.  I normally don't order clothes on line because I need to try them on.  Luckily, these jeans turned out great.  A little pricey but worth the money.
