First of all which jeans stay skinny?

Just bought some topshop baxters, i sized down as the girl suggested and after a couple of hours they are baggy and now on day 2 i had to take them off after dropping dss to school, am i meant to wash skinnys daily? didn't want them to fade quickly, should i wash them on a hotter cycle or tumble dry to shrink them? I fear i've wasted my money.

The Gap denim legging range which have a proper zip & fly stay skinny. I love them but one of my three pairs has faded a fair bit after washing.

My Uniqlo jeans stay skinny.

they key is that they should be cotton/lycra and not just cotton; tbh i've tried uniqlo and gap, found the best to be M&S jeggings, they are nothing like leggings, just fab, stretchy skinny jeans with a proper waist!

Baxters are dire, I wore mine yesterday for the first time in ages and soon remembered why I'd given up on them. I rate Gap Premium super skinny

I bought some Levi skinnies in New York and they stayed skinny for 5 years. Just worn through them and bought some UK Levis and they have bagged and grown a size after two wears Confused

My Paige skinnies don't bag.

Dorothy Perkins super skinnies don't go baggy.

Lee Scarlett jeans keep their shape and don't seem to have faded either.

Love my oasis jeggings - but the waist s got baggy not the knees
Hate Zara ones -
have ones from "selected" they ve stayed skinny So a vote for tem too.
I like top shop Jamie's too - but the colour s faded from my beige ones after several washes.
