Hi I need new jeans!
I'm wearing size 10 Next everyday slim fit but they are a bit baggy now. I need high waisted (dd is 10m old) so I was going to try a different style from next. But apparently next jeans all go baggy. Is this true?

I bought a pair of skinny jeans from All Saints & wore them for 2 hours tonight- but I could feel my pulse behind my knees & they are far too tight in the leg. So they are going back to the shop.

Does anyone have any recommendations? Slim fit, not ultra skinny, up to £100, dark blue or black.

Thanks!

I want to try the GAP high rise skinnies, but none of my local GAPs have them in store - it's driving me up the wall, because I refuse to buy without trying on.

WhoWasThatMaskedWoman I have never seen them in store (Exeter and Cribbs are my nearest branches). I've asked shop assistants when thet will be getting them in and they always say they don't know or they've been discontinued. However, now Gap has started making a few versions, perhaps they'll start appearing?

Very annoying.

What size are you in other jeans, someone may be able to work out a size?

It's not so much the size - it's whether they'll gape wildly at the back. Just had an unfortunate experience in New Look.

I'm very curvy (11/12" difference between waist and hips) and they don't gape at all, if that helps?

I have just moved onto fat face jeans after trying next, river island, topshop, Levi's and new look.

They are fab.

I can bend down without showing my bum

My second favourite pair are gap

I find FatFace jeans too low rise to be comfortable. I have quite a long body and high waist jeans sit below my waist
