What new pants should I buy?

Here are my current ones.
Some are work pants and will be kept regardless.

I don’t think any of them besides 1 and 7 are flattering, but I don’t know what to look for in new pants.

All of these are too big on me as well.

Why don't these jeans look good?

Can I tailor them to fit better? Do I need different sizes/cuts? I'm 6 foot tall, and had a baby 9 months ago so am still probably changing sizes as my body shifts.

Edit: I just wanted to say thank you for all the wonderful advice! I can't reply to everyone I just really appreciate everyone though. ❤️

Be honest, does this look good or terrible?

Just tried this on and I honestly can't tell if the color and style work on me or if it looks ugly. What do you think? Also open to suggestions on where something like this could even be worn.

Bikini/swimwear recommendations for a shy girl going on a family beach trip?

Hi guys! I just wanted to ask for some advice on what type of bikini/swimwear would look good for me since I’m going on a two-day beach trip soon. I want to take some nice photos and feel confident, but I also don’t want anything too flashy. I’ll be with my family, so I’m kinda shy and would prefer something cute, comfortable, and not too revealing.

If you have any recommendations for specific styles or cuts, please don’t hesitate to share them! I’d really appreciate any suggestions. Also, I’m not a fan of tight-fitting bikini bottoms because I find them uncomfortable and don’t like when they ride up or create an awkward fit. 😭

What’s wrong with these jeans?

These jeans feel too tight in some areas (the crotch specifically) and too big in others (really bunched up in the lower stomach area—when sitting). I don’t know what exactly the problem is, but I do know that they are not good.

Can you please help me to determine what exactly is wrong with these jeans so I can try to find a better fit…are these salvageable with the help of a tailor?

For some reference-these are American Eagle Curvy Super High-Waisted Flare jeans in 6 x-long.

I have included a full body pic of me from a few years ago so you have a better idea of what my general body shape is (though I have gained a little since that pic, my body is still that shape overall).

I’ve never bought or worn jeans that are labeled as curvy—but I’m on a mission to find clothes that fit better and are flattering on me, so I figured that I would give these curvy jeans a shot.

I have found that high-waisted flares are the most flattering option for me, and I would typically wear my shirt tucked in, either partially or fully to show off my smaller waist, but I wouldn’t dare do that with these scary jeans on.

Can anyone offer any insight or suggestions?

I don’t know how to dress my new body.

I’ve gained over 60 due to illness and I have no idea how to dress my new body. What kind of looks do you guys think would look good on me? I don’t like anything on me so I’m willing to try almost anything.

Trying to find some options

Hello!! I’m a newbie here and I’d really appreciate some feedback and suggestions to do with dressing my shape… for reference, I am five feet tall on the dot and have not found many short girl friendly clothing options that flatter my specific shape.
Are there any specific cuts or shapes I should be wearing? I have a pretty short torso, and my hips seem to start immediately after the dip of my waist. High waisted options tend to look terrible on me.
I’ve only recently started to dress well, before then, I was always in oversized pullovers and jeans.

Help me decide what’s best to buy?

Hi!

So my bf and I went to a mall for dinner reservations. We had time to kill to so I decided to go shopping.

He had to leave to go to our reservation and I was still in the dressing room. I don't have time to buy the items but I'm kinda curious which are worth my time to buy and which aren't since I have them on hold!

I asked my bf his opinion but some he liked were some I were iffy on and vice versa so thought might as well get more opinions while I have them on hold.

  1. Is a romper. I find it cute and I feel red tights would look cute underneath them maybe?

  2. I find this really romantic and maybe for a date idea with black heels and maybe gold or silver accessories? It was hard to put on. I had to get a sales associate to help bc the zipper is hard to reach but easy to take off.

  3. I find it to be relaxing and sporty maybe? Idk I usually don't wear skin tone stuff.

  4. I find the shirt cute! Idk if the design or the fabric color compliments me, but I don't really have a shirt like this! Wish I was wearing jeans with them or some slacks! Maybe a business casual look?

  5. Basic black top which I have a lot of but they are a quarter sleeve. I only showed my midriff a little to show that it was a shirt and not a dress.

Thoughts on what is worth the buy and worth skipping???

Thank you so much for anyone who responds and sorry for any grammar mistakes!!!

Help me dress for my body, I always feel bulky and top heavy these days.

my hips and waist are a little more narrow than this pic lets on and I feel like the bulkiness of my arms and chest always takes over

Followed your recommendations!

Posted here before and got great advice. Made some changes to style one of my favorite dresses. Let me know what you think?

What’s wrong with the fit of these jeans?

Howdy!

Always on the quest for a holy grail pair of jeans. These are Abercrombie & Fitch “The 90s Straight Mid rise” in 28 Short.

I like how they look from the front, but the back is god awful. They also feel so comfy, which is a bummer. I’m so lost when it comes to what looks good.

- are they too small?
- are they too short?
- what does the weird bunching around the butt mean?
- what does the baggies around my thighs mean?

Help!
