I have the light brown velvet ones and wear them all of the time. There are a few Modern Fit pants that don't fit me, like the black ones with the white pinstripes that my husband bought me for Christmas. I think the material has a lot to do with it. I think it would be worth your time to try on all of there different "materials" in this pant because I have had so much time waisted looking for the perfect pants and these are as close as I can get. Good Luck!
rar210, thanks so much. You have always been so helpful to me. I plan to go to Gap during spring break in march--i am on a shopping ban until then. I am going to try on every pair of modern fit pants in that store. However, if those pants go on sale that you posted before then I might just have to break the ban.
I really love the drew fit pants from the limited....they are great and they come in many colors, patterns and fabrics...the do not sit to low...right at the belly button...I used to wear the Express editors...I still do sometimes, but I find them to sit too low on the waist

On me my Worthingtons hit just below my belly button.
I love Trina Turk Leeza pants for dressy. I have 2 pairs in black and gray. Cheap-o pants that I like are from NY & Co because they come in lots of colors and lengths. I don't know any of the style names, but I have a pair of red, pink, white, eggplant, and 2 pairs of black pants all from NY&Co.
I just discovered Drew pants from the Limited. I just needed some cheap pants to go with a shirt I bought and I went into the Limited (which I usually don't go into) and tried these on. They fit way better than all my other pants. All of my other pants are either BCBG or BR Martins or Harrisons. I definitely will be buying some more of these Drew pants from the Limited. They fit my waist AND my hips which is amazing because usually I have to buy a bigger size pants to fit my massive ass and then the waist is too big and I have to overcompensate by wearing a longish shirt.
My favorite brand jeans is AG. I have Legends and Angels. No jean can compare. I will only wear my other jeans if all 3 pairs of AG's are in the laundry.
I've been raving about the Drew pants from the Limited for about a year. Now it is harder to find all the special additions in my size (6) because others have discovered they are the "perfect fit". The cool thing is they come in cord., patterned, striped, plain (I have 8 pair of the black-different materials/weights/patterns). Anyway, I say try the Drew. A couple of months ago I was at Marshalls and they had some of the summer weight ones for $16.99--needless to say, I bought both of the pairs they had in size 6 (you might keep your eye out at Marshalls for more!).

Let me know what you think! Also, if you like them keep your eye out for sales. The Limited is always having a sale, and I often find pants there for as little as $15-$30.

I will. It will probably be March before I go shopping since I am on a ban until then.
