GOT JEANS?

Carrie Underwood graces the cover of InStyle magazine this week. She talks about her wardrobe, and admits to owning around 100 pairs of jeans! 100??? Oh my. After reading that, I came home today and counted the ones in my closet. A whopping ten. The actual number of pairs that fit, without having to lie on the bed to pull them up? Six. The others were stuffed in the back of my closet, obviously because they hadn't been worn since my pre-baby days.

I'll admit, I really only have ONE pair of jeans that I love. I paid way more for these than I ever do, but it was worth it. They're a better fit. Can't explain it, but I'd wear them every day if I could.

Here's a little secret I learned over the past couple of years. The lower the placement of the pockets in the back, the SMALLER your badonkadonk appears. Who knows why...but it's true.

If you can't buy 100 pairs, like Carrie, just buy one with low-placed pockets. But, do me a favor. Skip the ultra low-rise.

There's something not right about seeing one's undergarments sticking out.
