Full disclosure: For the past five years, my wardrobe has mainly consisted of dresses, leggings and sweatpants. I spent a lot of time in the dance studio, which meant that wearing things that didn't let me change quickly wasn't an option; the habit ended up sticking. It wasn't until a few months ago that I started wearing jeans again. My mind was BLOWN at how they made me feel! Jeans can be a total confidence booster, regardless of your size or height. You just have to find the right pair and style them correctly.
