Do these jeans exist? Where?

Hi

I really need new jeans after my current favourite pair (Diesel Livier I think) wore through at the knee. I'd ideally just replace them like-for-like but they were a TKMaxx bargain and I can't justify regular Diesel prices.

In an ideal world I want them to be slim (not skinny), with stretch, long enough to turn up and with a low-mid rise (I am tall but short-waisted, so high-rise jeans practically come up to my boobs and are so uncomfortable!)

I would rather pay high street prices...

Any suggestions?

Next have some good slim cut jeans, and I have recently bought some slim jeans from Mint Velvet that fit like a slightly loose skinny.

ebay?

Topshop Lucas could fit the bill & about £40.

I'm not confident enough about sizing to use eBay and can't be bothered selling stuff on if it doesn't fit!

I'll check out Topshop. All the Next jeans I have tried have been too high on the waist!

It should be ok if you are going for a named brand and style and known size. I have done it.

Dorothy perkins! They're thin don't last but oh my they fit well.

I wasn't sure whether the ones I got from TKMaxx were sized correctly (I always assume they sell 'second' stuff in there - or is it just end of season??) and I can't find a size guide on the Diesel website.

My local DP only had skinny jegging type jeans in. Will have to look further afield! Will also check Oasis too. Thank you!

I would try Gap in an Outlet shop. Be prepared to try lots of pairs and different sizes.

I like and recommend Dorothy Perkins, too. Really comfy and flattering considering I look like a cart horse in other brands. 😊
