To expect skinny jeans to stay skinny.

Every time I buy a pair of jeans that fits perfectly in the shop, by the time I've worn them for a couple of hours, they're too loose. If I buy them a bit on the snug side, there's no give at all.
My mum got me skinny jeans for Christmas & they're falling down :(
It's not just skinny jeans either. It's all of them.

Next are terrible for this.
Can't get my feet through the Top Shop ones...made for girls with spaghetti legs.

I know. I don't know the answer to this. Mind fall down after a few hours, too.

Try a belt? I have to or they won't stay up! Or just embrace the teenage boy look and wear interesting boxers underneath...Grin

I have this problem.

The lady in GAP told me to buy the tightest I could possibly fit in.

I did that ...its a bit better.

My knees go saggy still , because I am always playing on the floor with DD3!

Mine, not mind...
sorry.

I've got a pair from miss selfridge which are the worst for going baggy. My two pairs of levis red tab girls' (like I'm young enough to be a girl, ha ha) are not sooo bad. (from tkmaxx)

I bought Topshop leigh supersoft skinny jeans and they are brilliant.
Buy a size a bit smaller and they stay up Smile

Have never had ones that stayed skinny before.

Its the elastane content. Look for a lower %

I thought it was just me and that I was a funny shape Grin gave up and bought elastic top ones at BHS Shock sound awful but are great as I always wear a baggy top so no one sees the top of them and they fit good. all my (hundreds) of pairs with button and zip I have to wear with a belt or they drop off!
