I am sick and tired of wearing jeans. I don't like the way they look (on me) and I don't like the way they feel. I don't think I can stand to wear a long skirt all the time either, though. If you have a comfortable, feminine and non-frumpy solution, please share it with me!

If you don't mind me asking, what is your body type? (Are you tall, petite, etc.)

What do you dress for every day? (Do you work in an office, stay home, etc.)

What type of jeans have you been wearing? What types have you tried?

This info might help us respond better.

Knee-length skirts?
Khakis?
Yoga pants?
Sari?
Kilt?
Sarong?
Culottes?
Kimono?
Overalls?
Skorts?
Pareo?
Capris?
Kanga?
Leggings?
Gauchos?
stirrup pants?

Really, you have nothing but choices. The problem is deciding what works for you.

I have played around with different brands of Jeans and finally found some that actually not only look good on me but feel good on me too. But if you really don't want to wear jeans, then don't. Find something that looks decent and feels good. Auben gave many options for you so go shopping and try some things on. See what feels the best for you.

But I will say that I wear alot of athletic clothes or dance pants if I don't wear jeans. Those are where I am most comfortable.

I found some really comfy polyester or rayon pants at Fashion Bug once. Hubby picked them out - they have elastic waist, and they're nice and flowy-like.

I hate jeans too - they're SO uncomfy! The one pair I have is really baggy - almost too big looking. I struggle with clothes constantly! I do wear capri's a lot, especially for work since I work in a hot kitchen. I prefer bottoms of any kind to fall below the knee.

You might try long skirts. Just for a while. There are some that are great and some not so great.

I looooooove my new cotton knit dress from lands end. Oh my. It is so comfortable I'd wear it all week if I could.

I agree with Maggie. I'm a skirt wearing girl. And I was surprised at how much I can do in a long skirt. I snowblow in a long skirt.
Try it! If you find one that fits, it's quite nice

I have some slacks that have just a little bit of stretch in the material. They are super comfortable. I like wearing jeans, too, but these slacks are really comfy. I got them at JCP, but they also have them at Kohl's. They are flat-front pants by Lee.

I've always had trouble finding comfortable jeans that fit correctly. Just when I'd find a brand I liked they'd change the cut.

The best pair of jeans that don't feel as still are ANA or APT 9 jeans found at JCP.

They also have normal pairs of slacks. Look for straight pants (not skinny) but straight pants that are widest at the thigh and stay the same width to the bottom. It hides muffin tops and most flaws in the bum, hips, and thighs.

Tights with a longer sweater/dress is always fashionable and I find extremely comfy.

Again, auben offered some great alternatives.

Know you are not alone in this common frustration! haha.
be blessed,
-reba.

Wow, I love jeans. I'm not sure what kind of jeans you have worn but it is important to wear the kind that fit your body type. Also, have you tried different shades? I personally like darker blue and I also like the shiny looking ones. Jeans are one of those things that you can dress up or play down.
