I have just read the Times and now want want want a pair

Has anyone been trying them on?

I am on the shorter size so don't need a dreadfully high waist or vvv long legs, but am fortunate to have a small bottom and ok stomach.

I like these that January Jones is <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=media.onsugar.com/files/2011/02/06/5/636/6360581/8d15b14bdbec5979_januaryjones_0209.jpg&imgrefurl=celebrityfashion.onsugar.com/Outfit-Identifier-January-Jones-Top-Jeans-While-Out-Los-Angeles-13931815&usg=__5IvcrQfK9_elPik1wjmbkB1nQWE=&h=800&w=500&sz=97&hl=en&start=0&sig2=Q0ZQta0paPEjqXbuA1LEeg&zoom=1&tbnid=nIj_Ca7VkGVcMM:&tbnh=129&tbnw=74&ei=amJ7TZeCHoK6hAfJ4-31Bg&prev=/images%3Fq%3Djanuary%2Bjones%2Bflared%2Bjeans%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26hs%3DRo3%26sa%3DX%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-US:official%26biw%3D1231%26bih%3D542%26tbs%3Disch:1%26prmd%3Divnso&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=463&vpy=38&dur=500&hovh=224&hovw=140&tx=83&ty=157&oei=amJ7TZeCHoK6hAfJ4-31Bg&page=1&ndsp=26&ved=1t:429,r:3,s:0" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">wearing

Thank you

Here is the Farah Flare short jean from Monsoon which does look promising, am liking the word short.
There also appears to be a non short version for you taller types

Wide Asda flare

Skinny Asda Flare

Good value the Asda jeans, what was the fit like ?

I prefer the look of the monsoon ones but the price of the Ada ones Blush

DarrellRivers · 12/03/2011 14:22

I agree

Not sure how I am going to tuck my tops in to my trousers
It goes against a life time of conditioning

I've just ordered a pair of high waisted flare (skinny flare type)jeans they were £25.
I haven't got them to try and be trendy, but I'm hoping they will suit my shape better and not give me a muffin top like every other pair of jeans that I own do, as I'm an hourglass shape so have a smaller waist than hips.
They are black and I'm also hoping the flare from the knee will make my thighs look smaller.

TheBolter · 13/03/2011 18:17

Ooo good are they fashionable again? I ordered about three pairs when they were in a couple of years ago - then they went 'out'.

I had a pair of those Serfontaine ones Magnolia, but I sold them on Ebay. They were a little short in the leg for me.

I have two pairs of these in different colours and haven't really worn them yet!
