ive gone down 2 sizes and my jeans (the stretchy type) that i like have become quite loose on me, but not too loose that they fall off my hips. ive tried throwing it in the wash heaps of times and it doesnt shrink as much as i want them to.. coz they stretch back out again.. >_>


anyone have any tips ?

take them in? shrinking won't give you desired effects ( Hows the hot water suppose to know when to stop shrinking your jeans?) - Plus, putting them in the wash will only fade them more. Take them to laundromat to get them to take them in, it'll be like 10 bucks..

Two sizes is a lot :/

Personally, whilst having them taken in may be cheaper taking it in that much will screw up the proportions of the jeans (namely towards top of jean, eg where pockets are). Buy a new pair and either give this one to charity, or save as your comfy jeans for when you feel curvier than normal :p

or get creative, cut them into short shorts, get some suspenders and wear them over a white tee or something.
