Jeans & Asian Genes




Finally, jeans that fit.

I'd almost given up looking because most clothing in the shops is overwhelmingly geared towards the Caucasian figure.

When it comes to jeans, I look for three things:
  • Hugs the waist without compromising my modesty when I squat.
  • No bagginess in the bum area.
  • And not so skinny as to require peeling off.

Today, I found my perfect pair at Target - of all places - on the sixth attempt, while Beth was at Chinese class. Best of all, the $39 marked price became $29 when I got to the cashier's.

This is one occasion when an ad means what it claims: "100 Fit". :-)

I say 'of all places' because the last time I was at Target, the customer service officer asked me on my way out if I had any feedback about the store range. Seeing that she looked Filipino, I cheekily said, "How about more Asian sizes?"

We both had a good laugh.
