It's chilly in here, I need jeans help

[happybratpack]

I'm short and pudgy, let's start there. I *look* better in low cut jeans, they don't make me look as stocky and my butt appears smaller. (to me anyway, and that's all that matters)

I'm not trying to achieve **** status or anything, I'm just trying to figure out how everyone wears them without having major plumber crack?!! I have these on today and just sitting here it feels like I'm hanging out in the breeze, I'm afraid to bend or squat anywhere in the office. (when I'm just standing they look fine though) Is some brand better than another? I have Levis on now.

Some jeans fit me better than others. Levi's honestly suck for me! They just create a HUGE gap in the back that I cannot stand! I prefer jeans with a hint of spandex in them. Just enough so that they seem to "hug" w/o being skin tight. I have less troubles with gaps in back with them. Currently I wear Old Navy and White House Black Market denim. Both have about 2% spandex with the cotton. I also prefer the lower waist (but not ultra low), and it's be a hard time finding ones I like. Good luck looking!

I wear American Eagle Low rise Boot cut. Normally I don't wear american eagle, but I love these jeans. I'm pretty tall, and the hit about 5 and a half inches under my belly button.

It sounds like you are getting "lower" than low rise jeans. Try to find some brands that don't sit quite as low.

Even then, though, I still have that "hanging out" feeling. Generally I ALWAYS wear a belt with my jeans and I ALWAYS wear a shirt that comes down past the waist. I don't want to see people's lower backs and crack, so why would I think they would want to see mine.
