High Waisted jeans - life after Next Sexy Bootleg?

6 replies

Hi y'all. Next had the gall to discontinue the Sexy High Waist Bootlegs and I don't know where to look now. I see they have a new-high waisted style that I'm willing to try, is there anywhere else I should look?

I wear a 14 or 16 depending on the style, I have large calves (and heavy thighs) so can't wear skinnies, and anything lower than a high waist gives me builder's bum. Blush

I tend to like the sort of trousers that people with normal rises and waist heights complain as going up to their boobs. Grin

I love M&S straight leg jeans. Cheap and cheerful, good fit, flattering and they sit on the waist. They're quite nice for the money and they're so cheap you can keep replacing them.

I'm not sure they look high enough for me, but I'll give them a go- if I can manage to find them in M&S. Too many dammed departments. Confused

They are high waisted on me but you might have a longer body than me!

M&S jeggings are quite high waisted. New Look do high waist jeans. Also ASOS

I'm also looking for high-waisted, although I'd prefer wide leg/flared.
Someone recommended these to me:

Wow, the ASOS site is scary. Also, everything high waisted (in my size, can't wear the Curve stuff, too bad it looks great) is either super skinny (can't wear) or "mom" (shudder).

Maybe I should just give up in jeans and trousers for good and god skirts and dresses all the time. :P
