I don't have much experience with other toothpicks so I'm not sure how they compare, but I took some measurements. The size 24 I have is 8.5" in the front and 11.5" in the back. Hope that helps!Engineer Leahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07469282997983032376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-8979976145120519132014-11-10T17:52:14.264-05:002014-11-10T17:52:14.264-05:00Engineer L, did you feel the rise on these jeans a...Engineer L, did you feel the rise on these jeans are pretty low or a little higher like some of the other toothpicks this year?

I was able to take advantage of some great deals and got 5 pairs of pants (including the Campbell capris and Turner pants both still regular price online), a pair of black distressed toothpicks priced at $9 (all black denim was on sale for that price), 2 of the cap-sleeve shirttail blouse, 3 pairs of shoes and a tote bag all for about $250. Overall, I say I got what I needed and I can't wait to wear everything. fshnonmymindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04188338589104627907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-23688118433175155032014-11-10T13:09:39.759-05:002014-11-10T13:09:39.759-05:00Thank you so much! :) Thank you so much! :) Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-65681284879447087852014-11-10T11:22:46.812-05:002014-11-10T11:22:46.812-05:00Distressed jeans are so cute, on some people, but ...Distressed jeans are so cute, on some people, but I just can't get past the actual holes.

While I was there, I picked up a pair of <a href="https://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/pants/denim/PRDOVR~B2598/B2598.jsp" rel="nofollow">black distressed toothpicks</a> (additional 40% off). I really like them, but the sizing is a little inconsistent and runs large. I'm usually a size 25 or sometimes even 26 in jeans at Madewell. For these I tried on all of the size 24s and 25s and ended up taking home a "large" size 24.

They were running a great promo - 20% off everything, 30% off 4 or 5 items, and 40% off 6 or more. I ended up getting a pair of black Minnies in Tall (which is what I had specifically been looking for as I prefer the extra inches for winter) & a pair of navy Campbell Capris for $14 each. I also got the merino swing sweater in honey glaze (I had been waiting for it to pop back in my size but never did!) & the merino v-neck cardigan in navy, both sweaters for $21 a piece. They had recently rearranged the entire store again - if you're looking for boots & are in the area I HIGHLY recommend stopping by; they had more boots than I had ever seen before!
