I read a tip on Hither and Thither from the owners of General Store that I’m keeping in my back pocket for vintage jean shopping…
Hot Tip: Finding the Perfect Vintage Jeans
“If you hold the waistband around your neck and it touches in the back just so that the ends meet, the pair will probably be a good fit and it’s worth taking the time to try them on.” Lots more tips in Ashley’s piece on Vintage jeans here including finding the most flattering fit, etc. I’m a huge fan of vintage Levi’s, which I talk about on our favorite jean post here. I own several pairs. Do you wear vintage jeans as well?

A cousin told me this years ago, and it is a totally legit tip! I use it now more than ever now that I shop with a toddler, LOL.
This is a fact! My grandmother taught my mom this decades ago, and it rings true! I’ve never seen this anywhere else!
Thanks for the links! Sounds like a good tip! ❤️✨
