Thank You, Express, For Making Wearing Jeans Enjoyable

I only own three pairs, but I plan to add to my collection.

Thank You, Express, For Making Wearing Jeans Enjoyable
Laura Guerriero

Dear Express,

Throughout my life, I have had such a hard time finding jeans that fit me correctly.

Every time I go to buy jeans, I have to try on several pairs only to walk out of the store empty-handed. They are often too tight at the thighs while too loose at the waist, baggy at the ankles (and I have long legs) or hit too low on my waist and accentuate all of the wrong things. I own about 20 pairs of jeans, and I have to wear a belt with about 17 of them because they do not fit correctly (I often have to buy a bigger size to fit my thighs).

There are only three pairs of jeans I own that I know I never have to wear a belt with that fit me exactly the way I like. Those are your mid rise/high waisted legging jeans. They do not sit low on the waist, covering my stomach in a way that flatters me instead of accentuating anything. The fact that these stretch with you makes it easier to move around and makes you feel comfortable knowing they're not seconds away from slipping off.

One of my biggest pet peeves with skinny jeans is that they tend to bunch up at the ankle, ruining the effect of skinny jeans unless you roll them up. With your jeans, they hit at the perfect spot- right below the ankle-without bunching up. The option to purchase ankle jeans that hit (for me) right above the ankle makes my flat-lying-jeans-loving heart so happy because I don't have to worry about bunched-up jeans ruining my look.

Lastly, the denim used to make these jeans is so soft and so comfortable (because of their stretchy property) that I don't have that typical "jeans" feeling when I wear them, as in I don't feel stiff and uncomfortable when I wear them. The pair of dark wash jeans I own has faded a little bit, but that's after a ton of washes, and it's nothing out of the ordinary.

So thank you, Express, for making jeans that work with me and actually make wearing jeans enjoyable. Although I only own three pairs, I look forward to expanding my collection in the near future.

Sincerely,

A Loving Customer

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
