The Bookie Twist Seam Bootcut Jeans

As a petite woman, I had been eyeing the "lil lemon twist" since they were released. However, when I finally pulled the trigger and got them, they were just too high waisted and too much material for my frame. Sadly I returned them and figured I'd live without the look...until I saw these! I have long been a fan of the Mother Bookie jeans and have 3 pairs in other washes, so I didn't hesitate to try these. At 5'2 and just shy of 100lbs, I'm between a 23 and 24 in this cut so I grabbed both to see which worked best and I'm keeping the 23's. If you're between sizes and going for more a a loose fit, I'd go with your larger size. I did not want these to be baggy. The 23's are still a tiny bit loose in the hips, legs and thighs. Also, keep in mind these are a rigid denim with no stretch, but they do give over time with wear. I am short waisted and the rise on me is just below my belly button, which I find comfortable. For a short girl, I have pretty long legs and they are long enough to wear with a low heel but will still work with flats and sneakers. As another review states, I'd say they are closer to a 30 inch inseam on the size 23 rather than the advertised 31 inch. Hope this helps! I'm thrilled to have added these to my Mother denim!
