I love Levi's leggings or "jeggings" because they actually look like real jeans. I haven't worn real jeans in so long... I know I've gained a little weight so I am afraid to. But I know I need to at some point.

What style and size do you wear?

I tried the curve ID thing yesterday and apparently I'm between two of them.

The demi curve gapped in the back, but the next one up gave me a horrible muffin top.

I think they did a poor job of scaling the rise with the inseam. Or else I'm too tall for the 34 inch inseams. I felt like the waist needed to hit a bit higher than it did to really fit properly.

I love my Curve IDs. They are a bit long, but besides my jeggings, they are the only pair of jeans I own that I don't have to wear a belt with. I agree with you about the sizing though. I wear a 7, but I started buying 5's if the jeans feel like they'd stretch and sag throughout the day. In Levis, I can't even get the size 5's over my hips, let alone button them.

For Lucky, I'm pretty much always 4/27. A couple of pairs seem a bit bigger now, though, so maybe I lost enough weight to go down a size. I buy mostly Lil Maggie, and I like Sundown and Sweet n Low (I think that's what it is). I am buying skinny jeans next time I go, though (June can't get here soon enough).
For Levi's, Demi Curve in 25x30, though I'll usually try on one size higher and lower just in case.

Darn. I was going to offer you two pairs I have sitting in my closet. I have a pair of Sweet Dreams in a size 29 and a gorgeous pair of capris in a size 30. They would totally fall off of you.

Aw, thanks anyway.
I love Sweet Dream, but they stopped making that style!

I got these pairs after I had my daughter and was transitioning back to my regular size, but I wound up wearing yoga pants a lot and by the time I was ready for jeans again, these were too big.
