Just wanted to help with the question on the size. 26 waist is definitely a size 2. I am a 26 but most brands I wear a size 1 or 2. In my opinion a size 2 is a pinch too big for me. Lol not sure if that helped or not but just thought I'd add that. I know I personally have a had time finding jeans that fit good. Watching and hoping to win these! Best of luck on all auctions and have a very wonderful day!
