Where do you all buy your skinnies?

I desperately need some new jeans, skinnies I think, but don't know where to start & would like some recommendations.
The last pair I bought were from white stuff but I found they sagged quickly & have a hole in the knee. I'm not very good at shopping & tend to stick to the same things & have bought white stuff or fat face jeans for the last 10+ years & feel I need to try something else!
Thank you

I like the indigo ones.

Really want a grey pair too but they are out of stock online.

Dancergirl, I'm your height and go for the 30 leg length in Jamie and as they're ankle grazers they're the perfect length. I think it depends more on your stomach/hip measurement rather than leg. I'd try a 30 waist but they are quite stretchy.

If they're not quite right try Molly from River Island.

Thank you vanilla Will try a 30/30.

Do you know how Leigh jeans compare with Jamie?

VanillaSpiceCandle · 16/11/2016 15:51

No problem! I've never bought the Leigh as the denim is too thin/stretchy for me. I like it to hold everything in a bit! However because of the Lycra I'd think the sizing is a bit more forgiving and would be really good for tucking into boots.

Tried Jamie and Leigh in a 30/30. Both going back. The ankle graze length is a bit too short for me, I suppose I could have tried a 32 but the main problem was they fitted on the waist but still not skinny enough. I suppose I want a legging look but in a jean.
