Denim Days
It's no secret that I am a connoisseur of high-waisted denim. Even before they became the staple of many an ample-hipped woman, I was always obsessed with finding the perfect pair.
The challenges I've found in the past is that it's tricky to fit most women's hip-to-waist ratio unless it's a super stretchy material. And while I definitely love me a stretch "jegging" feel, too often that means the pants will inevitably stretch out.
I recently had the opportunity to work with Alloy Apparel, which is a brand I've worked with and loved for years now. They just launched their all-new collection of plus size denim and so I was excited to try them out.
I ordered two pairs of denim - one in black and one in a dark wash, and I wasn't disappointed. The black pair was lightweight and comfortable, feeling very similar in cut to so many of the beloved plus junior brands like Fashion Nova and other small boutiques. But when I tried on the dark denim pair, I was really pleasantly surprised to find that the fit was perfect for my body! They were stretchy and comfortable but thick enough to give you an extra bit of tummy control. In fact, I didn't wear spanx with these, which I often do with high-waist pairs. It was great to feel relaxed and comfortable enough to rock them with a crop top. (Pro-tip though: make sure you are wearing some great-fitting underwear - no VPL needed!)
The good thing about Alloy which really sets them apart is their support of taller women. I myself am not that blessed in the height department, but because I am hippy, I often order a tall inseam to get that perfect length. And at their price point, I am definitely impressed with the denim and would totally buy additional pairs. (PS -- this week they are on sale! Go cop them!)
