Hi! Can anyone recommend some flattering jeans? I'm 5ft 6, 36f boobs which make me look bigger than I am Confused and a bit of a tummy. Any jeans, whatever style, look terrible in my opinion. I'm 14-16 and 41 tomorrow! Wine

I really like Papaya jeans from Matalan. Everything gives me a massive gap around the waist. Also, as I've got a body 2" longer than the norm, the higher waisted ones enable me to go out without showing the top of my knickers. Not a good look at my age!

I've some that I've had for 10 years and will be buying more on a UK (shopping) trip later this year.

I've just bought some Next cigarette jeans, and not sure I understand them. They are more girlfriend jeans. Quite loose fitting round thighs, then taper to turn up.

Are they meant to be straight? Which is what cigarette would imply Hmm

M&s regular straight jeans. I think theyre either £10 or £15.
They have a bum and a waist. The straightcut are like skinnies to me cos have big calves. Im a size 16 and booby and feel good in them.

I really rate primark skinnies with the high waist, they have the three button thing too, best jeans I've had since I had a proper waist Grin

Thanks to this thread I am now the proud owner of a pair of M and S relaxed skinny jeans. I even got complimented on them by DD, who is 16 and very critical.
