I desperately need new jeans but I really can't work out what style/fit/length I need.
I'm in my 60's, dress fairly classically but think I manage to look 'up-to-date' . 5'7", generally a size 12, hour glass (much smaller waist than hips, so trousers always a bit of a problem).
I like a high waist, and definitely not skinny jeans, as my thighs are a bit chunky. I would wear them with flat brown leather ankle boots or black suede ones with a small heel.
So, clever and stylish people - should I go straight legs? slim? mum jeans? and what length should they be? In the good old days, they had to cover your shoes (or your flares had to sweep the ground 
) but I know that's not the look nowadays. Any recommendations of brands would be good too. Although I don't normally like M&S, I have got jeans there in the past because the waists seem to suit me, but I couldn't find anything in my local one the other day.
