Size Purchased: 14 or 14+???
Usual Size: 14
These pants are stylish w/small embellishments that I like and like to notice on my person. The little buckle, the position of the various pockets in different spots on the pants and the wide leg fit is perfect. The following statement below is about my experience purchasing jeans from Fashion Nova and the headache. I will always rave and praise when I get a good pair, which the aforementioned are. So the msg following is lengthy.
I will say on each review bcuz I've bought several pairs of pants from fashion nova and I'm always afraid bcuz it's hit or miss EVERYTIME. I know that's probably the nature of the beast w/stores like this maybe. But I've bought sz 13s, 14s & 15s in other pants that are of the same brand and they don't fit! So I'm pissed, cuz im like are they sending me irregular pants or just plain the wrong size. Cuz it's like 1 or 2 pair of the 13, 14s and 15s fit and they ALL fit the same....thats even more funny! So what I mean is, I'll buy 4 pair of the deep in my soul flare...I'll catch a bogo sale. Well only 2 of them in that shipment will fit all the way. Yes, all the same size all the same pair. I've done this 3 times and I've gotten the 3 different sizes AND all after reading TONS of reviews! So my first go around was with the deep in my soul flare on 1 pair fit perfectly. They are almost too big, and these are supposed to be high stretch. The beige/khaki ones are just that. But the dark blue and both light blue pair do not fit (all the same size). So I tried again....decided to give it another shot, but try a different size. Bought the light blue, dark blue and black, sz 15 this time, based on reviews again and the fit from the last pair that didn't fit (the 1st shipment were tighter in the thigh and I couldn't button). Well same thing, but 2 did fit. 1 pair of lighter or medium wash and the black pair. But they were EXTREMELY long and I didn't order tall. But since they are high waisted I just pull them up ALL the way and roll em some. But now im pissed cuz why don't the light wash and the dark wash which is what I REALLY been wanting to wear fit! This is the 2nd order, different size and VERY SAME FIT!! It's like they keep sending me the same pants even tho I'm ordering a different size. I'm pissed bcuz of the hassle to return(I gotta pack em up and print off return labels...like who has ink for that and its the companies faulty sizing). So, I'm like 3rd time will be a charm. I kinda know how these jeans feel, etcetera, etcetera. So I decided to order the 14 plus....because I will need some of these new soon, because I wear the heck out of the ones that fit....I mean I love the way that they fit when they fit! So I catch a sale order the ones that haven't fit(from the past 2 orders) in a different size and I take a chance and order some other kind. Reading the reviews as well. I order a combination or 14 plus' & 15s. Guess what? The same with the deep in my soul flares...even the ones that fit b4, the medium wash didn't fit in 14 plus(well the fit all the way up, just can't button). What I do notice with ALL of the ones tht don't fit, is that the stretch is different. It's not the high stretch in the ones that don't fit. Now the new pants/jeans that I've never bought fit perfectly....a 14 plus and a 15. Nice loose, cargo fit. So for the 3rd time, I decided to keep the Deep in my soul flare tht didn't fit bcuz I can loose a few pounds for the fit and bcuz I didnt want the hassle of a return and to have to explain all of this during the return. No one would believe this, although I could take pics. So on the flip side...when I drop abt 10 lbs, I'm going to have a nice arsenal of dark wash, light wash, deep in my soul flare jeans.
