Measuring Yourself For Our Jeans

Do you know the most asked question we get at LKL HQ?

'I'd totally in love with your Hug Me Baby jeans, but I'm in between sizes, what should I do?'

Well, fear not, we're here to help, just drop us an email at sales@lady-k-loves.com and we'll help you work it out.

But if you're feeling a bit more adventurous and want to try working it out yourself, here's out how to guide.

Firstly grab your self a tape measure, and remember this, clothes sizes have changed to reflect our bodies changing (for the most part growing) over the years, the only thing that is a true reflection of you, is your reflection. Don't worry about the label. Worry about if you feel and look good. Yeah? Yeah.

So, now you're armed with a tape measure and a sense of reassurance that you're beautiful and people love you. Measure around your natural waist first of all. For most of us this is a couple of inches higher than your belly button. Jot this number down, we're based in the UK so our sizing is in inches. You can convert cm to inches here

Now measure around 6" lower than your waist line to get your hip measurement. Jot this down too.

The way it works is this,

our Classics are cut for a difference of around 10". This is the 'average' hip to waist difference and work for most people. If you're more like 8" difference, go for the smaller size. 

Hug Me Baby's are cut for girls with 12"+ difference between their hips and their waist. For the most part, you KNOW if you're this body shape. you can NEVER get anything to fit,  your waist is tiny, your hips/ass is pretty full. Years of frustration....I kinda can't reinforce this enough, they look so much better on girls who have 12"PLUS difference between their hips and waist, so waist 26", hips 39"

Le Wild, well.....let live up to their name and are a total wild card. With a straight leg, and a side zip, they fit an assortment of body shapes. basically if you love them, unless you have a crazy hip to waist ratio, they should fit you and look great! I've seen girls with only 6" - 8" difference rock these, all the way up to 12" so for the most part you can too.

Unique style

We get asked from time to time if we will be restocking item X, and sadly for a lot of you the answer is......we probably won’t be, at least not for a good while. 

But there's a reason for this. Lady K Loves isn't mass produced, and we want you to keep feeling and looking special and unique. As avid fans of eclectic dressing ourselves, we tend to combine Lady K Loves vintage inspired styles, with original vintage, high street and designer items to make sure we don't turn up to the party in just the same outfit as someone else. 

As a result of this, Lady K Loves produces stock in one off runs, so colour ways aren’t restocked past our initial allowance of fabric. For items such as the jeans, trousers, pencil skirts etc we’ll always run a black colour way and keep restocking this periodically. But for the most part we don’t restock sold out colour ways. This means you know when you buy a Lady K Loves item you’re one of the few people who own it, helping to keep your style unique.

From 0 - 60....or something like that

I got a super sweet email the other day and thought some of you might like to hear about it. A love lady sent me a message saying this....

I love the clothes you sell do you think I would be too old to wear them at 59?

How old are your customers ranges?

It took me a couple of days to get back to her becuase I was off talking to suppliers, but my reply was this, and it's true. 

Sorry I’ve been out of the office for a couple of days.

One of the things I was doing, was a trip to London with my mum, who's around your age, and wears my designs, in fact the Wendy trousers were named after her!

My aim is to design flattering, wearable, playful and sophisticated clothing for women of all ages and body shapes. I’m pleased to say my customers range from teens to 60+

If you need any help on the sizing, cut of fit of an item please let me know and I’ll be happy to help. 

So I'm hoping you feel like this is what you get from Lady K Loves, and if you've any questions I'm always happy to help.

Here is a little example....

Hug Me Baby

Jeans that fit your super curves,

You waist is one size, your hips at least the size above, so dreams of those perfect high waist jeans have become a shopping nightmare. You've long given up on being able to ever find that illusive style that will fit with out a belt to bring the waist right in or expensive alteration.....

Cry no more! Hug Me Baby's are here to rescue you.

Cut to fit the below sizes, made from stretch denim and featuring a bunch of lovely finishes from twin stitching to, riveted pockets.

Size Waist     Hip

XS    24"  36" - 38"

S      26"  38" - 40"

M     28"  40" - 42"

L      30"  42" - 44"

XL    32"  44" - 46"

 Don't have super curves? Why not try our Le Wild jeans, cut for ladies with a small hip to waist difference.

Outerlimitz Lurex Playsuit

I was a lucky lady the other day, and got an unknown parcel through the post. Not expecting anything to arrive, and seeing it was addressed to my facebook name , not even the Lady K Loves facebook. 

I was intrigued!

And very pleased when it turned out to be......

 

A Di Brooks of Outerlimitz lurex play suit. This one is made from original lurex fabric and was a very nice surprise through the post.

  

Sadly though, it was not to be, it's a little too large for me, so I'm still after one, and on a waiting list for when the ideal fabric arrives!

 

 So some lucky lady can still get this one!
