Wasn't someone looking for a higher-waisted skinny jean? I ordered these from the Gap and am in love. They're not a high-rise, just highER than normal. So comfortable. Not as leg-hugging as other skinnies, I've had, which I actually like because they're more comfortable and I can wear them to work on jeans day (like today) without feeling too scandalous.

I have the high waist AEO jeggings, I got them online. I really liked them and they're the only pants I wear. I lost more weight so yesterday I went in to a store to buy a new size in the same high waist ones, I put them on today, and I had to tuck my undies into the jeans :/ I'm either wearing the granniest panties EVER, or they're not as high waisted as the ones I got online.
Just a note to anyone who may have gotten online vs in store. I still like them, but they're nowhere near as high. By like maybe two inches.
No, wait a minute. These are the ones that are too low still for old Memaw. I ended up ordering the Banana high waist ones. I tried on those horrible AE Jeggings. You people are crazy. Those are not jeans. lol
You should try the high waisted ones!
I'm short-waisted, maybe that's why they're high on me?
I cannot for life of me, find low rise leggings or skinnies. Ugh fucking ugh.
Wait, what are you talking about? That's All there is out there. Lol
no. I'm a mutant or you are. Nothing exists that hits below my belly button. Oh god. I can't wait for the return of low rise shit. This is one trend I will wear again.

Do you mean this high?
(I realize these are pricier, but I've bought this brand highly discounted before).
Also, if it makes you feel better, a friend who is 29 only buys high rise because she's a teacher and is self conscious about bending over and her students seeing skin. So at least some young folks do it too? Heh.
I was at Costco the other day and saw some cute jeans on a table. I was "oooooooh" until I read "TAPERED" on the label. THey still make that junk?? Maybe that's why they were at Costco on clearance......
I am confused, I thought tapered was the same thing as skinny?
I just bought three pairs of the High Rise Jeggings and one pair of the hi-rise skinnies. I love them all! The skinnies are better for non-boot days, the jeggings are prefect for boots. I am wearing one pair today, you can see in the OOTD thread...though you can't see my pants well because I have so much shit on around them, lol.

They sell high rise and sky-high rise (which is higher than high rise). Maybe you have one of each?
Maybe. They shelf label said high rise, but they could've been in the wrong spot. I still love them, but I was surprised at the difference. One thing I just remembered is, the ones I got online are regular, but it was able to get short in the store, maybe that makes a diff. They figure shorter likely means a different torso too?

Me too and I agree. They were the suck. For reals.
