To ask you to help me find some non-skinny jeans that are flattering?!

I have been looking for months! Countless tried on and sent back!

I know skinny jeans aren’t ‘in’ anymore and I would like something slightly more ‘relaxed’ in terms of fit for the summer but dear god, every mom/ Boyfriend/ Girlfriend Jean I've tried on has been SO baggy and unflattering. I just want a mid wash, relaxed style with turned up hems, no rips that are FLATTERING and don’t make me look like I’ve got huge, baggy arse or huge hips or whatever.

Does such a Jean exist? If anyone has what they think I’m looking for could they post a picture/ link?

I’m just exasperated with it now. I desperately went out of skinny jeans for the summer but finding a flattering alternative seems impossible!

My older daughter got some Ultra High Waist Mom jeans from Hollister and they're really flattering on her. They come up slightly big, so if you're hesitating between two sizes, go for the smaller one. They come in different lengths, so you can have them cropped or rolled up or whatever.

I'm just not wearing jeans any more. Over rated. I can't actually remember the last time I wore a pair.

I just live in athleisure or wear a dress if I want to look smarter.

Thanks for the community clothing mention tato Just browsing, I love their ethos

Try the Topshop Editor Jeans (on ASOS these days)

Same here! Try gap best girlfriend jeans they are great fit for a slim hip/leg
Mid rise and not too baggy on the leg
Size down as they come up quite big

But they are hardly ever in stock online you have to go into the shop!

I second Community Clothing.

I have just bought the Sienna straight leg jeans with stretch from M&S. Kind of a hybrid as my arse looks huge in high waisted mom jeans. I got a 12 and a 14 to try. Have kept the 14's because they will help with my endo belly but if you don't bloat, stick with your usual size as I can feel these 'giving' a bit already. Very comfortable though.

Mint Velvet, slim leg with a turn-up.
