Best skinny jeans, not mega £??

My Gap ones are looking somewhat tired - what other high street jeans are good these days? Oasis? Next? They need to be fairly robust as I'm just on the cusp of being able to carry them off ok lots of you would probably think I couldn't but never mind so they need to do a bit of 'holding in'!

I like the M&S 5 pocket ones. Or Jack Wills have some nice ones in their sale.

Topshop Leigh - last ages and don't go baggy or wrinkly.

Difficult to say without knowing what height and dress size you are.

I also need my jeans to be fairly structural, and love Topshop Jamies. They're quite high waisted and thick with a good stretch, and very forgiving.

Primark ones are good.

Uniqlo, lovely quality, never bag, but their sizing is generous, so size down.

New Look super skinny are my new faves. I binned all of my M&S 5 pocket jeggings when I discovered the New Look ones.

Next high waisted skinnies are great.
And to the pp who said high waisted are vile - I agree but it's a constant reminder to me not to wear my Minnie's with any top that could expose the waistband..... And it's less vile than butt crack :)

Try the Gok Wan skinnies from sainsbury's - £28 and very stretchy.

Another vote for Topshop Leigh. The comfiest skinnies ever.

M&S or Next do good bum and tum shaped skinnies.

I bought Next jeggings and they are so comfortable and haven't gone baggy.

Oasis cherries are great. A lot of shops only stock the jade shape though, which is nowhere near as nice.

River Island Amelie skinny, stretchy but don't lose their shape and good thick fabric.

Matalan have lovely skinny jeggings for only £12. They come in different leg lengths too. I have 8 pairs - love them! Stonewashed, navy, lighter denim, grey or black.

New look. Get lots of compliments on mine. I'm 5"2, size 10 but disproportionate of thigh, so usually jeans that fit my thighs gape at the waist. These are fine. and the 8 fit

I love the primark ones too, they do some called something like lift and shape, highish waistband so no muffin top and really hold their shape £11 I think.
