Am currently wearing Gap and Next (not both at the same time obv!), however they're desperatly in need of replacing.

Years ago (when it was all green fields round here) you'd wear Levis or nothing - what are the makes today?

Oh and River Island 3/4s with embroidery around the bottom which I got sick of (these were bought when pregnant with DS so over 5 years ago) so I did turn ups which cover the embroidery.

I have a few pairs from FCUK, but they do come up quite long. (Buy these in the sale)
Also have some from warehouse & a pair of guess jeans, which I bought while in the States.

The best fitting pair I have (I have a tiny waist and gert hips) comes from Asda and cost £3, BARGAIN!

OK a question for all you jean experts, we will be coming back fom america soon and before we go I'm going shopping (big time), I'm looking for new jeans but find most reveal a little to much when I bend over. I want either boot cut or slim fit but not these ridiculously "ultra low show the world your bum" kind. Who can steer me in the right direction?

MassacreOHara · 04/10/2005 17:25

H&M - high at the back - low at the front. £12 does that swing it?

FairyMum · 04/10/2005 17:32

Levis and H&M

Just bought some really nice French Connection ones.

I tried on about 4 different styles of Seven jeans last time we were in the States and didn't like them - not sure what all the fuss is about.

I have two pairs of Zara jeans that I am wearing to death. Wish gap would bloody hurry up and come to Bordeaux.

twirlaround · 04/10/2005 18:22

Gap, definitely but avoid the new skinnies

buffytheharpsichordcarrier · 04/10/2005 18:28

compo · 04/10/2005 18:29

jessicaandbumpsmummy · 04/10/2005 18:31

SplendidTinker · 04/10/2005 19:04

h&m = reduced to £10 and then 2 for price of 1 so £5 each.

Monsoon - good quality and a size smaller than i should be. And cheaper than Tesco as I got them in last year's sale.

mine are next. went out to the shops today and saw a lady trying on what looked like a really nice pair of jeans in mango but she had a tiny bottom , can't have had children!. i couldn't even get them over my thighs!

motherinferior · 04/10/2005 20:15

Ahem - M&S Ltd Collection, bootcut, the Joanne ones, in Shortarse length. Which look surprisingly good.

TinyGang · 04/10/2005 20:17

Not exactly cutting edge - but Dotty P's fit me best.
