Jean Finder, Zafu.com

Here is a little something for Mommy. Have you heard the term, "Mom Jeans?"

We all have that strong desire to cover up our tummy after child birth. Our jeans get higher and higher, which is not the most flattering look, no matter how comfortable. However, The low rise jeans that are so popular are not the most flattering either. Have you heard the term "Muffin Top."

I have discovered an amazing website to help alleviate these problems. Simply fill out a short survey about your body type and denim preferences and the Zafu database recommends jeans that should fit your needs. I took the survey and 28 different jean types, in a range of prices, appeared within seconds. Stacey London from TLC's "What Not to Wear," recommends a dark wash with a straight, not tapered leg. For the most slimming look that can be worn from day to evening. This site also offers a bra finder.
