Got Quads?

I forgot, Amazon also carries the Curvy jeans.

Another vote for the Levi's. I found a pair of the curve ID ones at Goodwill and they're seriously my favorite jeans right now. I'm no help with non-denim pants though. I mostly wear skirts if I have to dress up now.

Ooh, pants pants, rather than jeans...I have 1 pair of the cut #4 black slacks from Target. I think they are their Merona brand. Cut 4 is their curvy cut. I didn't have any luck with their 4 jeans, but their 4 dress pants are a good fit, at least the pair I have. They're over a year old, so I don't know if they still cut any this well.

Just tried on the skinny jeans I bought before I started seriously cycling - couldn't get them over my thighs. Off to find new jeans for the new curvy me!

Funny. I don't add quad bulk, but for some reason I add calf bulk. My mom got me a pair of skinny jeans for Christmas last year. I could get them on (with some struggle) over my calves, but getting them off required a vegetable peeler. And I rode less last year than I've ridden this year. I might keep them for winter (because they do look nice with boots), but I'm tempted to let them go.

I'm another big thigh girl. At 5'4" and near 150 lbs for a vast majority of my adult life, I have never been a bean pole either! Biking didn't make my legs bigger...just harder, and that's ALL good!

Levi's Curve ID (supreme curve for me, too) and I just had great luck at Banana Republic for dress pants. I bought three pair!! Jackson fit rocks.

A bit over two years ago when I first started riding (and riding too much), my quads certainly got larger. Then I was off the bike on and off due to a few injuries and lost some of that. This year when I regained my lower-body strength my quads seem to be growing harder rather than larger - and much more calf muscle definition. My legs look like sticks unless you really start looking at them, but I've a very strong lower body. I guess things change - or else my workouts are different enough this year that my legs are developing differently? I don't know, but it is interesting.
