I have just spent over £120 on 2 pairs of jeans and a top!!

The Jeans are FANTASTIC!! The short leg at 30" it spot on for me, with heels, the fit is great, not too granny to the waist, but not low cut and muffin like. I am really cross with you all I have NO MONEY this month, but they fitted soooooo well and I wear jeans 4 - 5 times a week. I bought a pair of normal jeans and a pair that are more like denim wide leg trs that I can wear for meetings :)

The top is not on their website, but it is pretty and looks fab with jeans or city shorts :)

Hmmm i'm a shortie too, never thought of looking in there for jeans.

Bloody brilliant Crunchie, good jeans are worth more than their weight in gold and can be flipping difficilt to find! I've already bought that Vitalumiere foundation on the basis of a MN thread. Might head out to Monsoon this w/e. Can never have too many pairs of jeans Grin

"Short" leg is 30"??? That's massive! I was hoping you'd say a respectable 27" Sad

I got legs too long, so I am spared the expensive shopping trip Grin
Yay that you have pretty clothes though Wink

I have fairly long legs and I love my monsoon jeans - they are a fab fit. Never thought I'd be writing that (I'm only 27 surely too young for monsoon jeans?) and I bought a pair from Next the other day... the first time I've ever bought something casual from Next!

Anyway back onto subject, yes love Monsoon jeans!

annie there are loads of different ones. I got 'Seville' as a normal pair of everyday jeans. I also got a pair that are not online. They are like a pair of wideish leg denim trousers, rather than jeans IYKWIM.

I am weraing teh normal ones to day and they are really comfortable. The cut is fab, REALLY flattering and there is no gapeage at the waist.

I am so converted.

I also bought 'Zeta' in black, a really cute rufflefronted shirt, which is great too. I can't waitto wear it. I think Monday as I have a nice meeting at teh Charlotte St hotel
