Cutting Through Size Confusion

"[W]hen you're shopping, you can whip out your measuring tape and quickly measure a pair of jeans. If the measure's close to your natural rise, then try on the jeans. If it's not, keep moving no matter how enticing an 'it' label may be."

My favorite article this morning is all about how to find the perfect pair of jeans. At the moment I have two pairs of jeans that are fitting me very weirdly. And of course all the different styles and sizes and rises make it all the more complicated. I am all about this measuring-tape technique for next time.
