So I have to tell you all about the best thing that I purchased today for all my girls out there.

I was in Costco and they had this place set up selling jeans, shirts, skirts, and shorts etc. I went over and looked at the jeans and they were adorable, pulled them down and noticed that they had a band around the belly, (looked like pregnancy jeans) the lady come over and asked if I needed help and I said "oh I didn't realize these were pregnancy jeans", she said they are for both our company wanted to design a product that was stylish however helped todays women who have a muffin top or fluctuate ins size. These are designed to help hide the muffin top, well she had me at muffin top because I HATE when my belly fluctuates so much that I cant wear my jeans because they are too tight on my belly. They were $39.00 Ibought 2 pairs I am so happy they are the most comfortable pants i have ever worn, and adorable fits like a glove but comfy on my tummy.On the tag they have a picture of a pregnant lady and a not pregnant lady they say clothing for every body by lilac Tummy trimmer Denim. Im going to buy 2 more pairs these jeans will last forever im so excited. It just looks like you have a tee shirt on under your top :)
 
Sounds pretty cool. For my I just go with low rise jeans so they don't go on my tummy at all. Or I just wear slacks that stretch.
 
These r low rise however when you bend over u dont see your panites or butt crack and dont have to keep pulling them up
 
Have you heard about "jeggings?" It sounds like you might like them. I can't vouch for them because I have never worn them, but I have heard they are very comfortable. They are like jeans with spandex in them? Although I believe they are meant to be shaped like "skinny jeans."

There are always pajama jeans. :p
 
I like jeggings with a knitted jumper dress over the top. Now the weather is getting warmer I want some cotton dresses to go over thin leggings. Normal trousers I wear on my hips- low enough to come under my belly but high enough I can bend over/sit down without showing anything (though depending on my weight and size that day I might need to 'hitch' when I get up).
 
I always had this problem with work trousers. They'd fit perfectly at the beginning of the day, and by the end they'd be digging in and be really painful.

Then I took a trip to M&S (UK) and found they did smart trousers with an elasticated waistband. Not only that, but they did them in a short leg too! Now I'm always comfy at work! Love it.
 
Thanks for the tip! Am I the only one that thinks that jeggings cut into belly fat and create extra muffin top? Not a fan. I like leggings with dresses though.
 
We could start a crohns naturist society, this would avoid all clothing issues and be much cheaper. Then again..
 
Thanks for the tip! I just ordered some via Euphoria Maternity website; I had some difficulty accessing the tummy trimmer website and couldn't get their shopping cart to work.

I hope they work - they certainly look comfortable!

Mine will be here on Monday!

Also - there is a contest on the main website to win a pair. I entered!

Here are some pics. Please excuse my FACE as I have no makeup on AND my severely chapped lips are swollen up like a botox experiment gone bad!!

PS I wish I had gotten them at Costco like Awbrey for $39, but even at $100 from Euphoria Maternity, worth it as they are already, after 1 hour, my new favorite, comfortable jeans!!!

I can't see them, Amy! Facebook?? LOL

Would either of you recommend these for very tiny, petite females? I am interested in these, but wonder if they'd be too baggy on my short, petite frame.

Nicole - I agree with you on some leggings. If the elastic is too tight, it makes me look like I have more muffin top! I have this problem with some low rise jeans too. Especially when lots of shirts/blouses these days are slimmer fit.
 
Marisa,
I think they would work for petite girls, they make them in xtra small. They fit so different than leggings, they look just like jeans.
amelouise_ I didn't get to see the pics ;-)
 
Hmm....thanks for the feedback, Amy! I have no hips, so I'm wondering if these would work for me at all. I'll see about Target ;)

You look fabulous in them though!
