Where can one get decent fitting jeans for under £20?

I wear out jeans quite easily (through the knees and at the bottom as I'm quite short) because of my job/kids, and I struggle getting ones that fit. I usually get them from Next, size 10 petite never quite fit right they seem for someone my height but shorter in the body, and 10 regular ones are the right body shape but a bit too long. But still, they fit okay.

I need around 3 -4 pairs but on not much money - where's the best place? I'd get them off ebay but nine times out of ten they really don't fit. I've got a bit of a baby belly still, no bum, and short legs (sigh)

Any ideas?

peacocks do nice jeans sometimes for £10 or less,I have a pait and everyone comments on them,they do a short fitting aswell.
Also sainsbury's apparently.

primark

Primark are no good if you're short. I have a pair from there that I ADORE, fit better than any designer jeans I've had, but they are so bloody long they are all frayed at the bottom.

I've had a few pairs from Dorothy Perkins, recently, some were certainly less than £20. Their short leg length fit me fine, I'm 5'3".

Well I walked past new look and they had a huge sale on and I got 3 pairs for £5 each They look okay although apparently they're all low rise and I don't think they are sitting where they supposed to lol but they don't look bad!

Nothing at the bootsale today, primark is a train ride away, and I'm not keen on DPs

Cool, I never think of New Look. Only for the reason it's on the top floor of the shopping centre and I always forget it's there...
Do they do shorter leg lengths then?

Another New Look vote. I have the most perfect pair of jeans ever from there and they only cost 12 squids. Loads of styles all in different leg lengths. I love the Hula ones, not stupidly low slung but not too high waisted .

newgirl · 29/04/2007 21:00

yes new look do dif leg lengths

  • hope they have lots left for you!
newgirl · 29/04/2007 21:01
