Skinnies falling down

[anniewoo]

Am not a skinny minnie(i wish) but my skinny Next jeans and M&S !! Jeans keep slipping down. Is 2% lycra in them too much? I think there was a thread on this before. 1% lycra must be better?

I've no idea about the lycra thing but I had the same problem with Next skinny jeans - and I'm def no skinny minny! I recently bought Dorothy Perkins ones on the recommendation of lots of friends & they are fab! Really flattering & keep their shape. Even better that they're only £15 or 2 for £25!!

i've never had skinnies that didnt fall down but Primark do high waisted skinnies. not my fave shop but will give a try. Just waiting for my size to come in..they seem to have all 8's and 18's at moment and nothing inbetween. What shades do the DP ones come in?

are the DP ones quite high waisted? i'm quite tall and fed up of always hoiking up so as to avoid builders bum

I hate my Next skinny jeans, i'm no skinny minny either. Can only wear long tops that completely cover my bum if i don't want to moon to the people behind me when i sit. Very interested in DP ones!

I have some DP ones that are quite high-waisted (higher at the back than the front too which is great for non-mooning). That said, even with a belt I feel like I'm losing them and have to keeping hitching them up.

I have some from French Connection and whilst they are expensive, they really fit and wash well, with no hint of a builders bum!
