every pair i try is too low on the bum. i am 5tft 2 size 10 but backside is fairly chunky!

i have a pair of levis slight curve in slim leg and they are perfect but the same in skinny is no good. they are all uncomfortable.

i do not want to sit down and reveal a builders

I too have this problem!

After much trying-on of jeans (what feels like 100's!), I find the New Look Superskinnies to do the job of covering my chunky bottom Blush

The 'skinnies' are no good, it's the 'superskinnies' I've found that work. Also, they are cheap at £19.99 Grin They only seem to have them in a darkish blue wash at the moment though.

Next's relaxed skinnies are pretty good but my favourite are Gap's High Rise Skinnies (yet to be released this year)

Kew - lovely bum-covering fit.

Topshop do high waisted skinnies if that helps? Think they are Kristen High Waisted?

Another vote for Gap's High Rise Skinnies here - haven't found any so far this year though!!! Next did some great high waist skinny jeans last year (with 3 buttons) but I don't know if they have them again this year?

thriftychic · 27/09/2012 21:57

i am not sure i want high waist , just enough bum coverage to be able to sit down would be great !

I have Oasis Cherry jeans and they are high enough to cover everything without being proper high waisted!

nomoreminibreaks · 27/09/2012 22:07

M&S high waisted jeggings? The pull-on ones are even more high-waisted than the regular ones.

brighthair · 27/09/2012 23:07

The next lift and shape ones worked on me, the skinny ones

Another vote for oasis cherry jeans

I love Topshop Leigh jeans, not deliberately high waisted but definitely higher than most. Bought some gorgeous Oxblood ones last week and I'm in love :)

thriftychic · 28/09/2012 15:07

love oxblood colour , will look out for them too

Next have just brought out some new high waisted skinnies which look fab.

crazybutterflylady · 28/09/2012 15:30

Oops just read that you don't want high waisted. Ignore me!

Rebecca54 · 28/09/2012 16:17

I find Levis fit me best as I am a bit of awkward shape. Mine are tight around the bum and snug around the legs but perhaps they are not true skinnies

RobinSparkles · 28/09/2012 16:30

I had this problem. The low rise ones always fall down on me!

I got two pairs from a Ralph Lauren outlet and they fit like a glove. I think they're mid - rise so not Simon Cowell high!

The Levis Bold Curve are good...
