Okay I am a bigger girl and need to find jeans that I LOVE, right now i am between a 22 and 24 or 26, i have 22s that are tight 24s that fit great but they are from a different compant then the 22s, do any of you know of any stores that you LOVE that carry larger sized jeans that are not stretch and dont go half way over your belly button? I have a pouch (thanks to genetics) that i dont want hanging out but i dont want super high cut jeans either.

What can I do next?

Womanwithin.com has some great jeans. They have stretch ones but I love the classic ones with 5 pockets. They are great and wash well. And if you are tall too. Their talls are really tall. I am 5'10 and they hit the floor. I like that they fit me all over. I alos like taht with the pooch they do not gap in the back. Hope this helps.

I just bought a GREAT pair at Anthropologie. They are the Stevie jean, very soft and has some stretch. They are pretty low cut and skinny though, I'm got good genes as far as my body goes. Anyway, they had several styles and all look great . Many of the store sales people were wearing Anthropologie jeans and not everyone was wearing the skinny jean... there were several body shapes. The were $170 but so far, very worth it.

I also like Rock Religion and their sister brand 1 step below Miss Me. Miss Me can be found in department stores.

I have Guess that are great and about 10 yrs old.

As you know, you get what you pay for and some of my $100 Guess jeans are 10 yrs old now... not a bad value!

I've found that I just have to try on a lot of different styles to get the perfect jean. This new Stevie fit me perfectly and I would not have thought to try them on.

Depending on the brand, I am 24 or 26 waist

ETA: I'm sorry, I thought you meant 22-26 waist size as in petite.

Not your Daughter's Jeans. You can try them on at Nordstrom's plus size section, and sometimes find them cheaper online.

The jeans at Lane Bryant stretch out terribly, and I know you said you aren't looking for stretch. I get Gloria Vanderbilt jeans at a couple of different stores and they are much better. I have yet to find a plus size jean that doesn't have stretch, and it frustrates me to pieces! But the Gloria Vanderbilt jeans aren't as bad as some of the other ones. Just My Size at Walmart are almost as bad as Lane Bryant's jeans for stretch. You might actually want to check out QVC because they have plus-sized jeans in their Denim and Company line and they have different waists heights as well (like modern and classic). Good luck!

I love american eagle jeans. I know they carry plus sizes on their website but I don't know how high the sizes go. When I was a size 24 I use to get jeans at Layne Bryant

I have a pair of Not Your Daughter's Jeans and love them. They are stylish and fit well. They have a pure denim look but are made with a lot of stretch, so they are pretty tight at first, but after you run around the house and get in and out of the car a couple of times, they are perfect. My favorite part is the waist doesn't gap in the back, so they are great for sitting in the bleachers :) Good luck!
