MADAME RECOMMENDS: Levi's Denizen Jeans at Target

I spent a couple years trying to find skinny jeans that fit my curvy figure and didn't cut off circulation to my feet, and had very little luck until I found Levi's Denizen jeans at Target!  So far, their sizing has been consistent, their stretch has been just right, the quality has been good (I still wear that first pair), and they have the dark wash colors I'm always on the lookout for.  They are available up to size 18 and pretty affordable ($27.99).

I'm not saying these are going to be perfect for everyone, but I am going to say they represent a lesson for everyone.  I had never heard of this "Denizen" brand, and regular Levi's don't usually fit me right.  But I make it a practice to try on brands I don't know, just in case, and this time it worked out so well I made a note and went back for more.  So that's the lesson - try on new brands, and keep trying on new ones even if most don't work out.  Because one will, and then you'll know where to go back to!
