These seem to be a perpetual quest for me! I'm after proper denim in a so-dark-they're-almost-black blue but that won't fade too quickly, skinny but not unforgivingly so and a waist high enough to keep my tummy under control on fat days!
I had a nice pair from New Look but they faded after about 3 washes - not surprising given the price I guess! I'd be happy to splurge on a pair if they met my wish list, do any of you style mavens have any tips for me?
