I recently acquired my first pair of what is called the slim fit jeans. AG Jeans are pricey but are awesome and they fit well, especially someone who is built like me – short, company and hefty. For me finding the right pair of jeans is a struggle, because of my odd shape.

I have to endure buying jeans that are too loose or too long and get them fitted or run the risk of swimming in them. It is never fun. So when I found AGs, I decided that they were worth the sticker shock.

I picked up these Matchbox jeans — they aren’t really slim fit, just they are slimmer compared to all the lose fitting jeans I have had to endure all these years. I hope these last me a couple of years — which in other words means I don’t put on any weight.
