"       I&amp;#039;m a pro shopper, and yet I still struggle to find the perfect pair of jeans. (Because I&amp;#039;m an apple shape, I&amp;#039;m prone to &amp;quot;Mom Jeans Syndrome.&amp;quot;) But after years of trial and error, I&amp;#039;ve discovered that pear-shaped cuts, which are more generous in the seat and thigh, are the most flattering. If you&amp;#039;re tall like me, dark trouser jeans are also a great option, especially for work. Now let&amp;#039;s talk skinny jeans: I know some of you avoid them, but a fitted pair (not skintight) at ankle length, worn with pointed pumps, will have you doing double takes in the mirror all night!
