T shirt looks good.

How do the jeans fit at the waist?

My problem with jeans is my waist is slim compared to hips (or maybe I should say hips are fat compared to waist!) So I often get gapping at the waist. Otherwise I have to go for a smaller size and then they are uncomfortable. Gap L&L were the best fit for me but don't seem to fit as well anymore (I've probably changed shape). Plus need straighter ones for inside boots. I think I am an in-between size actually...

yes its a strange shop but has hidden gems. soemtimes the stuff looks like its from an old persons catalogue, sometimes its so cutting egde you wonder how to put it on
