Best blue skinnies for a short curvy person

37 replies

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 24/07/2017 19:31

I usually get M&S Autograph skinnies, bu they appear to have stopped doing them. I want a mid to high rise and a nice mid blue denim. Any ideas, please? £60 tops.

Or is it better to splurge on some Levis or something?

Me too.. I'm size 10 but big of bum and thigh 😬😬

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 24/07/2017 19:41

I used to get mine in Oasis, years ago. Wonder if they are still any good?

Next petite, but jeggings?

I absolutely adore M&S five pocket skinny jeans but they seem to be discontinued 😢😢😢. I am only 4'11 and they actually fit me perfectly. Sorry OP I know that's no help to you now

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 24/07/2017 19:52

Used to have loads of the M&S 5 pockets but they changed them and I didn't like them as much.

I never go in Next, but will try to brave it next time I'm passing.

Topshop Jamie's. Good quality, come in different lengths and there's usually different shades of blue to pick from. I have a straight up and down figure though - someone else might comment on how they fit curves - however they are very stretchy.

Tu at Sainsbury's. Short fit and stretchy. Love mine and worth a try at that price

Polkadot1974 · 24/07/2017 22:22

More rogue apostrophes sorry. Bloody iPhone

imjessie · 24/07/2017 22:45

I've got these which Come in short leg . They are a good fit .

Jamie's aren't made for curvies IMe . My slim in curvy dd wears them and they got her perfectly . Me not so much ! Luckily she takes after he dad !!😁

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 25/07/2017 10:24

I used to like Jamies but they did gape a bit at the back. I'm a 12/14 and used to be an hourglass but am now more of a blob.

Just stopping by to suggest Tesco f&f performance stretch skinny jeans. The ones with "Lycra beauty"GrinCome in a variety of lengths. Are amazingly stretchy yet never loose their shape. About £25.

Theycalledmethewildrose · 25/07/2017 11:18

I wear Jamies and a pair from TopShop. I like both of them equally.

Theycalledmethewildrose · 25/07/2017 11:19

I.e. Sorry a pair from Warehouse.

BumbleNova · 25/07/2017 11:52

Asos lisbon are my current faves. I'm a curvy 10 and they are fab.

GreengageJam · 25/07/2017 11:54

Gap super high waist skinnies. Most comfy jeans I've had for ages and fit my leg length really well.

Hairq · 25/07/2017 11:58

I like New Look Yazmin jeans. They're high waisted which holds everything in and have plenty of stretch for accommodating curves without ever going baggy. I'm on my 3rd pair and can't find any other jeans that I like nearly as much.

ValeBrook · 25/07/2017 12:03

I'm 4ft 11 and size 12 and I second Jamie's from TopShop

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 25/07/2017 14:48

Thanks again. Will report back!

OP posts:
SparkyBlue · 26/07/2017 22:21

@ValeBrook thanks for the recommendation. Do they sag at the knees? I am the same height and I find buying jeans a nightmare

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 27/07/2017 17:07

Tried 17 pairs of jeans on today and didn't buy anything. The Oasis Jades fit me the best, but the pair I tried were about 17 fee too long for me and they didn't have any other lengths. Am going to wait until the weather is cooler before trying again.

I'm 5ft and 14. Best for me are Gap slim or girlfriend cut. Really flattering.

taybert · 27/07/2017 17:54

Did you try the GAP ones Remus? I find the high waisted ones good. Size down.
