Not all Earls are belled but most are. They do tend to be quite long. I
wear mine with heels. I wear a 28 or a 29 in Earls and I am a 6 or 8 in
most pants. I love how they look but I do not have a round booty or a
small waist....just the opposite, actually. If Earls are at Ross then
other designer jeans can't be far behind; maybe another designer will
fit you better. Or try bluefly.com, they have good prices on Earls
sometimes and free returns.

I was at my local ROss on Sunday. Typically they don't have much
there, but I went through the clearance section anyway. I found some
bell bottom, low rise, stretch Earl Jeans with the original price tag
saying $140.00! I figured what the hell and tried them on, since they
were marked down to less than $20.
They had to be the ugliest jeans ever on me! Waaahhh! I thought I
finally had a Ross score that would be AF worthy and the damn things
were just wrong! The fit in the waist was fine, but the SIZE of the
bells on the bell bottoms... I just couldn't do it. Add to that the
fact that I am 5'8.5" and they were dragging on the floor. I couldn't
find a style description, are there less "belled" Earl Jeans or is
that it??
DH was enabling all the way and was probably more disappointed than I
was.
I remember someone posting a jeans size chart on AF last year and I
lost the link, I believe it said what brands/sizes are comparable,
because I didn't know what to think when the tag said 31, and I find
I
run into this relatively regularly. I find GAP low rise straight leg
or loose fit jeans look nice on me, are there other suggestions for
higher end jeans that work for someone with a round booty and small
waist? :) Think J.Lo....
Thanks!
