colored denim, endless eating and super fat knees

[GlitterPunk]

So I can't stop eating, but haven't hit plus size yet (but I'm approaching a size 16). As much as I would like to have my eating in control, I just can't. I really cant. I've tried everything and then my 1st DS was diagnosed with ASD so until I can have my feelings in check I think I'll jus thave to keep eating them.

Normally I wear a size 12-14. 5'5; When I do try size 16 clothes the waist/but thighs are super loose. I also have really big arms. So all in all, I have normal proportions on hips/bust but arms and calves are a problem; sometimes I feel like an obese popeye.

My problem is: I want nice new jeans but nothing ever fits over my knees!

I keep hearing about j brand and topshop -- tell me about them please?

I wouldn't recommend Topshop for your shape. Not sure about J Brand, as have never worn them or seen them. Levi Curve? They are good for the fuller of calf.

I agree Top shop are a no go area for the curvy. These jeans from Reiss are a great fit for my curvy butt and even when I have gone from a size 14 to a size 12 they still look good - and although they say they are low rise - the jeans really aren't very low rise at all.

Glitter I'm a size 16 and find that the jeans from Next are the best for me. I've just got some of the £20 slim leg jeans and think they are pretty good - not too tight at all around the leg and calf (I've got chunky legs and calves - have trouble getting wellies to fit around them, so definitely not slim) but a good modern straight style. Hope this helps

I've recently got a pair if wide legs jeans from peacocks. which look really good. Also a pair of cords from wallis.

I dd this because we sound about the same size.
