I just came back from town. I forced Rickard and Maja (who didn't need to be forced really) to come along when I went jeans-shopping. So, I have now bought my first jeans for at least ten years and the tightest since the 80s. Mind you, then you couldn't get jeans with any stretch in Sweden. These have 3% elasthane, which makes them much more comfortable. I doubt I would have been able to fit my calves in them otherwise. You can also see my new shoes:

Damn you slim-hipped women and your ability to wear jeans... Nah, I don't really miss them. You look great!

Slim-hipped? They measure 113 cm!
And the difference betwen waist and hips is 27 cm. But these are very low cut, so the relationship between hips and waist isn't really significant. They go extremely low on me, with my long torso, so I can't wear them with a t-shirt tucked in or anything, I have to wear something over them.
I would have preferred a high waist, but I couldn't find any. The ones I found were too loose in the leg and had boot cut.

I still think they look sort of - not wide. I mean the side-to-side measurement. Or maybe it's just that you have the right shape of hips - not the kind that is widest at the bottom (like I have). I mean the right shape for most jeans-wearing, not that there is a right and a wrong hip shape in general.

It's how I pose too, if it had been totally en face I would have looked much broader in the hips.
