Where do the women who want jeans that are cool but not punishingly tight or low-cut go? Surprisingly, to a midtown department store. Saks has multiple walls (organized by brand) and several tables strewn with sizes. The best brands: Paige, which are high waisted and have a slightly full thigh, and Immortality, also somewhat forgiving. Prices range from $150 to $300, but there’s generally a good selection on the sales racks, where prices go as low as $75.

Competition breeds the best. If only one pizzeria existed in New York, of course, there’d be no real winning slice. Thankfully, we’ll never know what that sorry situation tastes like, since pizza—like dance parties, dog runs, and fried chicken—has to evolve upward here.
