kim22 Like others said, I like the Old Navy Rockstar. They have like 8 different fits so I think you need to try them on. They do come in petite, but I think only on line. I also like the Loft jeans. As to flats, I actually was just out looking for some this weekend so I am no help there. trtlcrzy, yikes! I hope it heals quickly!! Glad H is ok too!

Can anyone recommend some cute flats to wear with jeans? Also, need jeans. I bought a pair of Gap and a pair of Old Navy jeans after C was born. I know I'm not the size I'm working on being, but I'm still a fairly average size and the Gap jeans already wore a hole in one inner thigh. They weren't tight either. The Old Navy ones held up better but are a bit too long which I got away with by folding and tucking them into boots. I get a million rothys ads..I like the pointy ones but haven't ordered them yet.

Ouch trtlcrzy! I hope your lip feels better soon! kim22 I only wear Old Navy Jeans. I alternate between fits, but I like the Sweetheart and Rockstar. I would recommend trying them on before buying in store though. One time I bought two pair, same size, same style, I couldn't get one of them over my hips, the other fit fine. I was told when I returned them, that they manufacturer in 3 different locations, so they don't all fit the same. Lesson learned!

What sort of flats? Dressy, casual, sandals? I’m allover the place w jeans so I wish I could advise you better there. I was ride or die Express for years. They’re still ok, but a little snug on my pp body. I’ve had good luck w the ON rockstar jeans. Have you checked if they come in petite? I also got a pair of BR ankle jeans last summer that fit really well and seem to be good quality. Holding up well for as much as I wear them. I could use dressy and causal flats. I need to retry the Rockstar jeans, they were too much on my incision last time I tried. What are BR jeans? Yes tgrimes was right - banana republic.

Work is dead today... I haven’t had an order/call in almost an hour. I really want this week to go by fast so customers really need to get their stuff together or sales reps need to do their job... 2 more hours.

I got that ad today after searching for shoes! I have picky feet so I like to be able to try on in stores.

kim22 what kind of flats? Something like a ballet flat, or a slip on shoe like the vans?

So, after the extremely long, ridiculous winter we’ve had, i was really looking forward to warm weather in CA this week. And of course, the forecast is warmer here than Sonoma Friday and Saturday. No fair!

kim22 Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but I have these. I wear them with jeans and leggings. The color looks weird on here, but they are grey. linkI also have a pair of brown leather keds slip-ons that are similar.

I have some fancy, glittery flats from Steve Madden and TOMS when I want to dress up my jeans.

I always have issues because my feet are different sizes. Sears just went out if business and I convinced them to let me buy 2 different size shoes in their last days. It's been great. When I get shoes that fit my right foot, my left foot comes right out.

Oh man that sucks trtlcrzy... glad you didn’t need stitches though! I’m liking all this jean talk. I’ll definitely try Old Navy... we have pretty much no ‘nice’ stores in our mall anymore and I like to try stuff on. 😞 I remember ON being tight on the waist and too short but that was years and years ago. I’m sure they’ve improved since then. I always just wear converse for flats... so I for sure need to find some dressier flats. Thinking about you guys @dapastrophe! ❤️

My mom came for a bit today and hung with A while I hung out with the big kids. They also go to daycare 2 days a week. Plus, my in-laws will take any of them any day I ask, so... I really can't complain! I still need wine though.

RE: jeans I prefer the Old Navy original straight to the Rockstar. Also, American eagle straight fit are good as well.

Speaking of ON, I got one of my coworkers on the pixie pants bandwagon. She bought her first pair today. I told her she will be hooked for life now.

Thanks for the help girls. I asked a friend to lunch tomorrow and I'm glad she said no because I'm going shopping. I can go to a regular mall or the outlet one that has BR and Old Navy outlets. Are outlet jeans the same as regular store jeans? I'm leaning towards that mall because it has a lot of kid stores and C needs stuff.
