Grey jeans

I am looking for grey jeans. 10 or possibly 12 as I have quite muscular legs and a big butt, they definately need some stretch to them!
Can anyone recommend some they've seen? I can't afford much but i will save up if they're the holy grail of jeans!

I got mine at Laura Ashley with 25% off they were about £35ish I love them, quite skinny and nice and stretchy yet supportive.

I have the grey ones of these. They are very stretchy and don't bag or lose their shape, and they're v comfy. Size down as they come up very big. Don't be scared of the fact they're 'ultra skinny' - I'm an 8-10 with muscular thighs and they're very flattering.

I have the M&S 5 pocket jeggings in grey and wear them all the time (in fact I'm wearing them now!) - they are brilliant, v comfy and look entirely jeans-like, not jegging-y. And are £22.50. Result. I'm told the Primark supersoft skinnies are similarly fab though I've not tried them myself. And are half the price.

Uniqlo do some quite good ones.

Mine are uniqlo superstretch and I love them!

I am a 12 but take 27 waist in them (which makes me love them even more)Grin

frankietwospots · 23/09/2013 14:10

I would second Uniqlo and M&S 5 pocket jeggings.

New Look super soft skinnies are brilliant and only £20!

Thirsting the uniqlo ultra-stretch. I have a muscular bum and thighs and they fit really nicely and are so very soft. I think they're nicer than the M&S ones as the material is thicker and they seem not to give as quickly.

Thanks everyone for your replies. :)
I tried the new look super soft jeans but couldn't even get the size 16 pair over my calves!
Shock Hmm

Is it skinnies you're after or would straight legs be better?

Not very S&B (prepares to get chased off S&B board) but I got a pair of bon prix straight leg stretch trousers (which are really just jeans) in navy recently and they are very flattering. Must nicer than the photos, tight through the thigh (on me anyway!).

YouHaveBeenOutbid · 23/09/2013 19:25

That sounds like I'm suggesting navy ones,oops. They come in grey too.

Johnny5needsinput · 23/09/2013 19:28

I have blush a pair of per una ones from a million years ago. They're skinny. Dead stretchy. And I think they're great.

Mumelie · 23/09/2013 19:40

Try them again Skinhead - I have to buy a size up (I'm a 12 had to get a 14) in the grey last week, but the fit has improved (very stretchy). I'd had skinnies from New look before and they really keep their shape, even after repeated washing.
