Next relaxed Skinnies

[LordPalmerston]

I agree. they are bloody good. Size WAY WAY DOWN though.
Comfy and a good half way point between skinny and straight/flappy

[burnishedsilver]

I tried them on in the shop. Unfortuantely, they did nothing for me. The rise was too low for my shape, my bum looked flat and the denim felt like cardboard.

I've just seen this on my mn email.... And am a little heartbroken! I bought these the other day, and was so excited that I was back in a 10 (5 month old dd). I now see this was false hope!!!

Still, glad to have some fab jeans ??

[Floisme]

Thanks everyone for this tip. I had pretty much given up on jeans till I tried these. I sized up mind you, not down as the smaller size was a bit too sausagey on the thigh for my liking. If they fall down I'll let you know .

[Emmaroos]

@Bunbaker Suggest you try 'lift slim and shape' (also by next). No back of waist gaping at all. More expensive, but well worth it. For the straight and boot cut need to size down also. I have a pair of the skinnies too, but in my normal size.

Ladies of S&B thank you! How have I survived without the next relaxed skinny jeans in my life?

After reading this thread I went to next today and it was a revelation - finally!! Comfortable jeans that fit!

Yay!

[LordPalmerston]

Boo. Sorry about that bunny

[OhTheDrama]

Anyone tried the maternity version of these?

[Bunbaker]

I tried some on today. They are a great fit, except that they are too low rise for me and will be uncomfortable when I sit down.

[Witchywitch]

I've just bought these jeans, the darker blue was as pp have said, quite big and I needed a size down, but the lighter blue ones in a size down we're far too small, couldn't even get them done up!

[expatinscotland]

I despise dressing up. I have ONE, yes ONE dress and one suit and that's it.

My uniform is jeans, tshirt (jumper over in winter) and plimmies or my birks in summer and boots in winter.

I love those laceless plimmies in New Look! I need the navy and white ones definitely.

[AnyFucker]

ah, you are plimsoll addict like me

Do you hate dresssing up, expat ?

I can't stand getting poshed up. Heels, frocks, blow dried hair. Fucking spare me

[expatinscotland]

I have two Converse, one Superga, the rest are M&S, Asos, George or New Look.

[AnyFucker]

I have several pairs of converse but getting a bit bored of them (especially since the bloody kids "discovered" them a few years ago). Have been wearing them for 30 years !

[expatinscotland]

Laceless ones are fab, too, for airplane travel.

[AnyFucker]

I got some laceless white ones from New Look (yes, really) last year that were great for about 10 quid

[expatinscotland]

I live in plimmies. Have my olive green one, navy ones, red ones, my silver sequin Converse.

But my white ones are trashed. They were M&S and they only make other colours now.

[AnyFucker]

the white ones look ok too, but I wanted washed navy or another deepish colour

[expatinscotland]

I am in need of white plimsoles but Converse make my feet look too big. Thanks, I'll try those.

[AnyFucker]

not sure if this link will take you there, but they are the Fat face Emily plimsolls in washed pink

the comfiest I have ever worn (much more so than Converse or Vans etc)...quite trendy too as I usually find FF a bit "mumsy" these days...

[expatinscotland]

Any, are the plummets FatFace or Next?

[sassytheFIRST]

I've got lovely shoulders and pretty ok arms despite comedy jugs.

Been doing the next relaxed skinnies for months, you lots are SO behind. They are ok but I shoulda sized down looking nice rolled up with summery shoes in this better weather.

[BitOutOfPractice]

Mine arrived today too.

I love them. Not least because it's been a long time since I wore size 12 jeans

[AnyFucker]

I bought a super comfy pair of plimsolls to go with my skinnies from Fat Face.

if anyone is a veteran Converse wearer, they will love them

really, really soft to wear and no rubbing on first wear schlepping around the shops with no socks on

[noddyholder]

I have big boobs and tiny arms even worse!

[UterusUterusGhali]

Oooh, they are good, aren't they?

Mine arrived today. (I'm such a sheep.)

They're tight on me, as I'm a chunky monkey, but very soft and loads of room for my fucking huge midriff.

They gape a bit, but hey, 26 quid.

Pretty long too.

Might go for another colour.
