Vanity sizing, size charts and my Eddie Bauer Boyfriend jeans

Someone here recently posted about Eddie Bauer jeans and I jumped right in and ordered a pair of Boyfriend jeans in tall.

So, the girls said to order down. I checked the measurements for my size (in EB land that would be a 14) and ordered a 12 Tall.

Now boyfriend jeans are meant to be rolled up and in tall I expected them to be an inch or two above my ankle....they are mid calf. Thank god I am a fan of the Tom Sawyer high water (function of being almost 6' tall).

As for the size 12...a 10 would have done. Which is not reflective of my size vs the size chart.

In good news I love the weight of this jean and I'm keeping it...may belt it in a Tom Sawyer style rope....
