I need new jeans!

[KatyaZamolodchikova]

I usually buy my jeans from a supermarket, usually Tesco. But I have some Christmas money and would like some nice jeans that will be flattering & will last.

I’m not particularly stylish, I am usually in jeans & jumper. I like dark blue jeans, and prefer a boot cut. I’m 5’5 and size 14. I have a budget of £40 - £50 but could have some wiggle room for the perfect pair.

I have no clue where to start looking, so thought S&B might be able to help!

Watching with interest as I am very similar, though prefer a straight or slim (but not a skinny)

Gap? They’re good for me. I bought some a few weeks ago at an Outlet locally and they’re a good fit and comfy. They don’t keep wriggling down like my Next ones and I don’t need to wear a belt which is great as I have a scar fro old surgery, which is irritated after a day wearing a belt. They also do a wide range of colours/fits.

I like Dorothy Perkins, I go for skinny ankle grazers as I'm quite short, but they do a wide range of affordable jeans.

I will be investigating Gap, particularly in the sale! Any experience of Fatface?

I was going to say sainsburys....try river island?.

If you can go a bit higher I swear by hilfiger and you could get them well within budget in their sale.

Next still sell bootcut, and they’ll be in the sale this week

Thanks! I’ve ordered some from next in the sale - £8!!

I’m off to check DP, I used to shop there all the time, can’t beleive I forgot! I’m also going to check out River Island & Hilfiger.

I’m excited at the idea of more than one pair of ‘good’ jeans!

When you get them, wash them with white vinegar as fabric softener because fab softener degrades the Lycra & they end up losing shape.

I did that with a pair of river island Amelie's I bought on eBay, sold them for the same price I paid for them as they looked brand new.

Topshop - although they don’t stock bootcuts, you can still find a great pair in a flattering style

So, I’ve ordered a pair from next, one from DP’s and two from Gap.
Fingers crossed!

The bootcut next £8 ones are mini length - is that what you wanted?

Also currently shopping online and was looking for cheap jeans so spotted it!

I’m not sure, but I’m going to give them a try!

These are my favourites - Uniqlo high waist, slim fit
