A) If worn with something neutral and the right shape on top. So I think all but the very skinny need some volume on the top half to pull off skinnies/jeggings. I have cobalt blue jeggings (from M&S, lovely) and plan to wear in SS with slouchy ivory long t , scarf and ballet flats

i really like them and hope I manage to lose my baby weight by summer to be able to wear them! I quite like the bright red. I had turquoise last summer and lots of people said they were nice.

A) love them so much I have the J Brand version in red, cobalt and pink!

So with the exception of star tail :o we are liking them.

I must admit a fondness for those I've seen, and I am mostly a "if it's available in black, that's what I'm getting" kind of girl.

So, m&s you say...

I have 2 pairs sitting at home in teal and pink. I'm trying to decide if I should keep them or not - I'm 30 and have a fat arse Grin

M&S jeggings

scarlettsmummy2 · 20/01/2012 15:38

I am also 30 and have a fat arse, so will only be wearing with something modest and which covers said arse!

Gillybobs · 20/01/2012 15:41

I think long slouchy ts are perfect, balance out your silhouette and provide arse camouflage

RunsWithScissors · 20/01/2012 15:47

Yy to arse covering tops!!!

Thanks gilly bobs going to have a look now.
