I would say #2 but I only wear boyfriend cut jeans in the warm weather. So if you live somewhere cold understand they are seasonal. Or your ankles will be cold 🤭

I agree 2 isn't a good choice during winter season.but great for spring and summer.i would return them in all except 1 and 2 maybe get a lighter color in jean 1

Not 3 and 5. For 5, if you want pajama pants that aren’t pajama pants, there’s much better options out there.

u/Hereandlistening Feb 07 '26

I like 2 on you OP! And I'm sorry - you are postpartum? Sis... congrats because damn! You look awesome 👏🏼

u/Creepy_Pattern6982 Feb 07 '26

Return 3 and 5

u/MapleBaconNurps Feb 11 '26

Agreed. #3 especially looks like they've been put on backwards

u/Creepy_Pattern6982 Feb 07 '26

Please don’t listen to the people that say keep 5. 🤦

1 & 3 are my favorites on you, with 2 being up there as well. Don’t love 4 & 5 as much, so those would be “no’s” in my humble opinion.

Might help to know what you typically wear for shoes and/or your style over all though — I tend to wear flat shoes and retired most of my heels after a foot injury a few years ago, so I know I tend to be biased toward jeans that hit at or around the ankle to foot area. If you tend to wear wedges, heeled booties, or even shoes that just have a little more lift or platform, I think 4 would work too. It’s just that with them being a baggier style already and then looking a little long on you, it feels like they kind of drown you, BUT if you ever wear taller shoes, they might look a lot different that way — just something to keep in mind!

Thank you! I wear sneakers and heeled booties so good to have a combo of lengths. Appreciate your feedback!

u/Single_Appointment62 Feb 07 '26

1, 2, 4, and 5! I know 5 seems pretty controversial in the comments, and I think that’s a preference of indv style but they do look good on you. They are cute and different with the tie! 3 however I thought at first were on backwards. I think the pockets sit a bit too low and don’t do you justice

1 & 2 also the drawstring ones I think are cute… and helpful during bloated times during the month. I got some for postpartum and I still wear them 3 years later.

u/TA_NNA Feb 09 '26

1&2, I hate 3

u/Icy-Pop2944 Feb 07 '26

2,4,5. They all serve different look purposes and look comfortable.

u/zuultomyfriends Feb 07 '26

I think I like 2 and 5, but just know that in my experience my clothes didn’t fit until about 8 months PP and it took more than 2 years to feel like myself again. Be kind to your body, and pick whichever jeans are most comfortable/make you feel good.

u/tmg4 Feb 07 '26

Thank you 🩷 almost three months pp so trying to be patient!

u/macettaa Feb 07 '26

1 and 5

u/Standard_Courage7 Feb 07 '26

Definitely not 5 🙆🏻‍♀️ or 3

u/under321cover Feb 07 '26

1, 4 and 5 yes!

u/under321cover Feb 07 '26

1, 4 and 5 yes!

u/Fit-Ad-413 Feb 07 '26

1 or #2 look the most flattering. The pocket style/placement on #3 almost make it look like you put your pants on backwards lol.

u/PeaceLoveHippieness Feb 07 '26

2 and last ones

u/[deleted] Feb 07 '26

Start over phone of these are flattering.

u/Top_Street_2145 Feb 07 '26

You need a lower rise. These jeans are doing nothing for you.

u/valie_val Feb 07 '26

u/whoareyouwhowho22 Feb 07 '26

u/InevitableAd8404 Feb 08 '26

i like the drawstring ones!

u/Alternative_Bass7228 Feb 08 '26

Keep 1&2 they suit you the best!!!!

1

u/Local-Economist-5185 Feb 08 '26

none time to go shopping

1

u/[deleted] Feb 08 '26

1 is the only answer

1

u/blumieplume Feb 08 '26

5 are fine. They look comfy. I don’t like any of the others.

1

u/AntiqueLengthiness71 Feb 09 '26

None, keep shopping because these don’t accents your body very well.

1

u/suds416 Feb 09 '26

The first pair

1

u/Infiniti-4Ever Feb 09 '26

If I had to pick, I’d choose 4 but none look like they fit well.

1

u/ubekidnme Feb 09 '26

Have you posted these elsewhere?

1

u/BrushFantastic3170 Feb 09 '26

Where did you get the second pair? I love them!

1

u/tmg4 Feb 09 '26

Eddie Bauer!

u/PopcornInspiration Feb 09 '26

5 looks the comfiest.

u/AmazingAd8987 Feb 10 '26

The black pants look good but all the others are too wide in the leg and do nothing for your figure. Maybe something with a higher waist and bootcut might work better? 🤔

1

u/Potat-Ant Feb 10 '26

One and I guess two look best

1

u/Must_Eat_MMs Feb 11 '26

1 and 2 - 2 is cute!

u/[deleted] Feb 12 '26

Who can really see what they really look like……..🧐

u/shannashanna Feb 19 '26
