the perfect jeans - HELP

[POFAKKEDDthechair]

since having children I have only found one pair of jeans [TK max jobbie] that fit. They are now falling apart. I have searched everywhere and cannot find anything similar. Will spend a lot to get a nice pair [I mean up to 100 quid]
I am size 10 with slim legs and bum but a bit of a tummy. So jeans that often fit me comfortable around waist are baggy on bum and thighs. I want stretch jeans [to get around tummy] that go over my tummy, so high waisted, otherwise they give me a permanent builder's bum. And nice and skinny legs.

HELP!

did not mean to underline comfortable. Meant comfortably. Gah.

not your daughters jeans are amazing, they are pricey but worth it, some of the designs are a bit mumsy but i've a lovely pair of plain dark denim nydj's they give you a very flat stomach and make you look at least one if not 2 dress sizes smaller.

what about these: eu.levi.com/en_GB/shop/products/curveid_jeans here

what about these: here levi curve id slight curve

couldn't get the levis link mysteryfairy!

The NYDJ look interesting froggie, thanks for that. They're not too, erm, mature, are they?

well they can be, but I just picked a plain pair and they don't have labels proclaiming the brand all over so technically no-one should know
I think their these in dk blue
I'm 26 btw so not very mature myself

they're not their aargh

26?
Actually those look good, the ones you chose. I am also looking at these
though rather more than I can afford want to spend. What you think?

Or these
Not too keen on bootcuts..

Seven for all Mankind!!. So lovely and flattering.

I got some from TK Maxx for £40 recently - if you register for Brand Alley there are always 7's in the sale for £50 ish.

But does it really make sense to blow £150+ on jeans?

Have you tried french connection? Quite a slim hipped fit I find.

I like the second pair high waist's are good I've got a pair of 7fam high waist skinny bootcut's and the high waist is very flattering - much less muffin top/ bum cleavage!

Ooh noticed 7 for all mankind on john lewis website - are they good?

Have tried French connection pointy - but can't find high waisted jeans there at all. And any high waisted jeans I try on in the high st are all baggy around my thighs, might as well grow a mullet.

7's are amazing I am in love with my new pair! much softer than cheap denim but don't go baggy and saggy after 5 minutes wear

right off to look for 7's.

ah right. Didn't see the high waisted request.

where did you get them froggie?

pointy dog - I know this is what i always thought but I wwould probably spend close to that on an outfit for a wedding and hardly wear it, whereas I'm a sahm and I live in jeans so I decided that price per wear they were actually a sound investment but then when it comes to shopping I am able to justify anything

john lewis mine are these I think the guinevere style comes in high waist as does roxanne

I tried on NYDJ yesterday, I thought they were horrendous actually although I loved yelling from the changing room "the 8's are huge do you have any 6's?

The sizing is ridiculous and the cut is frumpy with the added delights of a camel hoof!

Have you tried Per Una from M&S? I have bought a pair of these. They are a really good fit, slimming on legs and bum but with a bit of stretch to cover tummy. I admittedly went for size 12, but can really recommend. And not too pricey, so surely worth a go?

The sizing is American so if your an eight you need to try on a 4 otherwise they will look very odd as I said some of the styles are bleugh but I got a nice plain pair

thanks for the per una tip. Will look our for those. Our M&S is horrendous, no stock and stuff mostly on floor - but might try to brave it.
Am liking the sound of 7faM. Wish I could try them on somewhere.
Camel hoof.

But thanks for all the tips.

Gap Curvy?

Hi, I noticed you linked to some James jeans - just thought I'd let you know they have some amazing bargains on the outnet site at the minute. I just bought a pair for £56 and they fit really well, and the waist is nice and high for holding in tummy! I'm a largish 10 and the 29 waist is a great fit. Up till now I've only ever bought high street jeans but I'm a total convert.
