We'll keep your secret! I once vowed to forever wear my maternity jeans pregnant or not pregnant. Hahaha!I bought a pair of DL1961 jeans. They were the most comfy jeans I ever tried on. They had little elastic stretch panels on either side. Regularly $168, purchased on clearance for $59.23.
I came home and looked at Nordstrom online. The same pair, except in white was still $168. Mine are black.
They have the stretch panels because they are maternity jeans[emoji23].
Oh well, with a belt on, nobody will know the difference.
