I'm an apple-shape and have been really happy with Wallis Demi jeans. But they have changed them, and they're not as good as they were.
What I need is a lot of ease in the waist and snugness on the hips. My hips and waist measure nearly the same, so unless there is a lot of ease in the waist so that I can size for my hips it looks as though I'm wearing jodhpurs. I slightly prefer a bit of stretch, but not if it means they will go baggy. I like slim fit legs, but skinny fit could be ok too. I wear a 14 in Wallis, or 16 in Dorothy Perkins Eden (which are a bit too loose on the hips and a bit too tight on the ankles), or a L in Uniqlo legging trousers (I might need to go down to a M in those).
I really don't like shopping very much, so online would be my preference, and I'm in Ireland so some of the UK shops might not have a physical presence here.
Thanks to all you fashionistas.
