I'm around 5'6'' and 125-130ish, it's funny that you mentioned that.. i have pretty much tried on every single pair of my jeans tonight and find my favorite fitting pair is a pair of relaxed jeans from American Eagle 29/30, same as the seven relaxed fit, but they are actually a lot more slimming and actually feel like a slim fit when i sit down... Go Figure :)
Anyway, I might give straight cut/slim cut a try this tuesday when i go do some jeans shopping... oh might i mentioned that the only pair of jeans i bought in store (try on and purchased) was the AE Jeans as well.. haha, maybe i should not do anymore online shopping for jeans since it's so hard to predict how it would fit.
Just to add one more thing, i don't mind slim fit jeans when they are hip-hugging, i just don't like it when the jeans are too tight on thighs and legs, i like a bit of room in those places.
