My friend Alicia alerted me to this handy jeans sizing tip that's perfect for sample sales -- or any time you're unsure about exactly how a hot pair of jeans will fit and no dressing room. Place your fist inside the waist of the jeans and see if your elbow fits in at the other end. If you can fit your forearm (fist to elbow) inside the waistband of the jeans snugly, then they'll fit. If it's too tight or too loose, try again. Ah, the magical geometry of the human body.
