Spent years searching: gap, next, m&s blah blah ....
I am size 10-12; small waist but big ole cycling legs.... nothing has ever fitted properly. Any pair that has looked half decent I have had to use a belt to gather up the excess and constantly hoik up.
But I have found Good American jeans (by one of the Kardashians) oh my bloody good- soft; comfortable; so so wonderfully flattering. Thank you - my search is over
