Lexi Diamante Jeans

Did not expect to love these pants. I’m a basic girl and I usually like to stick to the basics. However, I saw these pants online and somehow fell in love with it. The website was sold out of petite sizing so I decided to check Nordstrom and saw that they only had regular sizing. With Nordstrom’s generous return policy, I thought what the heck, let’s give it a try. I loved the look online but was still skeptical that I’d actually love it in person. The pants are slightly barrel-y, which is a trend that I just can’t get on board with but bc I got the regular sizing, it’s not as apparent and I decided to get it tailored so that it’s slightly shortened to fit my petite stature and be able to wear it with either heels or flats. I’m so glad I didn’t get the petite sizing. I found this to be true to size. I usually get 25 and found it fits well on the hips and a slightly baggy look, which is what’s trending now anyways. For reference, I’m 5’2”, ~108lbs. I don’t have pics since I’m still waiting for alterations to give back to me.

These jeans are gorgeous! Could be dressed down with a T or jazzed up with a cool top. The shape is really nice - similar to what another reviewer said, just slightly barrel. I went with the reviews and sized up and wished I had stuck with my usual since 27 so they are now a little baggy around the waist and will definitely stretch out with wear. They hit just nicely at my ankle and I’m 5ft 7. I’ll keep them as they still look good and I’ll get them altered if they stretch out too much.

These are gorgeous! Just enough barrel if you are nervous to try the trend, and the perfect amount of sparkle. Fun for holidays! But these only run slightly small. Maybe order 1 sz up. I ordered 2 sizes up based on the reviews here and they were way too big, now they are sold out. So bummed!
