Briana Dark Wash Jeans
These elegant jeans are great for just relaxing in, but they’re stylish enough to create an outfit around them. The mild fading in the knees and thighs are a great contrast to the dark wash and the lack of destruction detail only adds to their versatility. Imported.
- Features:Mid rise
- Mild fading
- 99% cotton, 1% spandex
- Machine wash
My Thoughts
I have a full figure, something I am always having a problem with when it comes to buying jeans. I either find them too tight in the hips and loose everywhere else or vice-versa and I have to say that I was so excited when I put on a pair of Briana Flare denim jeans from maurices, they fit perfectly. And when I say perfectly I mean they molded to my shape and stayed, nothing was loose, the waistband didn’t pull away from my back side and they were perfect! My husband came running into the room when I yelled “YEAH!!!”, he thought something was wrong and when I told him to look, that I had found a pair of jeans that fit me, he laughed and called me a nut. Well I may be a nut but, I am now a nut with the perfect pair of jeans! I HIGHLY recommend maurices jeans to everyone!!!! I will definitely be buying more! And don’t forget to check out all the other cool styled clothing while you are there!
