The endless search for jeans that fit

[Thighsaplenty]

Hi all,

I cannot find jeans that fit and look nice.

I can't do skinny as my thighs are far bigger than my calves and they look ridiculous.

I'm short (5"1) and I find bootcut/wide leg make me look bigger than I am.

I'm currently wearing a stained pair of Levi Demi-curve slim fits but they've been washed so many times they've lost their shape. These were the only jeans that have ever fitted!

So I'm looking for a nice pair of jeans, slim fitting (sort of look skinny fit without them actually being skinny, if you see where I'm coming from). What fits the thighs will be huge at the waist and what fits on the waist looks like I'm encasing my legs in cling film. It is not attractive.

Any suggestions? I'm going shopping on Saturday and could really do with some shops to try.

Size 10 up top, 12 on the bottom (all thighs and hips)

Have you looked at Gap Girlfriend jeans? They're a not skinny but not boyfriend fit either.

I'm same shape and nearly same size & I find the Corey boyfriend jeans from Dorothy Perkins are a nice fit. In fact, I find their jeans in general good for us pair shapes.

*pear shapes, that should be!
