Life changing jeggings

Just wanted to share my little find with you.
I wear skinny jeans a lot but I hate how the button/zip area shows through if I'm wearing a tight fitting or thin top so I decided to try some jeggings. Tried a few pairs on and bought 2 which solved the button problem. Last week I bought a pair from M&S and they have done amazing and magical things for my body. I bought my usual size which seemed a little too small but I finally wriggled into them and WOW!
I have slim legs but quite flabby thighs which are not in proportion with my lower legs so I usually wear longer length tops when I'm in skinnies to hide them. These jeggings slim my thighs down so much that I'm able to wear normal length tops/jumpers with them. They also seem to push up my ample but slightly saggy bum. I cannot believe how flattering these jeggings are. Only £15 and they do them in loads of colours and 3 lengths. I've just ordered them in charcoal and another pair in black.
I really can't recommend them highly enough. If you do buy any make sure you get your normal size, they will seem a bit too small but once they're on they are so comfy and flattering. Can't believe how excited I am about a pair of 15 quid jeggings but they are the best item of clothing I've bought in years!

They are literally selling out whilst I am trying to order them Angry

I have never found a pair of jeggings that didn't slide down my waist instantly, (apple).

The DP Edens were a disaster, I may as well have been wearing tights I had to yoink them up so much.

I'm dubious.......

They have sold out in almost all sizes!! I hope someone from M&S will post and tell us when more will be available.

I bought a black pair from Amazon after seeing this; I do neither 'style' nor 'beauty' but needed a new pair of black trousers for work.

Cor blimey, they are good. Thank you OP and Amazon link lady.

I would prefer to support our ailing department stores, rather than prop up more profit for Amazon.

ShrodingersSturdyPyjamas · 13/09/2018 10:52

Good for you. You are welcome to do that.

ShrodingersSturdyPyjamas · 13/09/2018 10:54

Presumably as they are all selling out in shops though...it would be a waste of time and money? The cost of just parking near a marks and sparks is half the cost of the pair I bought and free delivery.

Storm4star · 13/09/2018 12:03

The £15 ones are sold out in lots of sizes now, including mine unfortunately. But have gone ahead and ordered £25 pair. I've put on a lot of weight recently and was struggling to find anything in my wardrobe to fit! I like the idea of the elasticated waist and will be thrilled if it hides even half of my muffin top!

shoofly · 14/09/2018 22:09

I've already bought the blue, black and grey ones. The blue and grey are fab, the black are rubbish, saggy round the knees and calves and they get even saggier after a few hours wear. I tried the £25 ones but the waistband rolls down.
I can get into the sparks sale preview but have got right through to check out and no discount coming off at all.

@Shrodingers I agree we live 20 miles away from a M&S by the time we get there park and then find out your size isn't in stock it's the half the cost of a pair
Why wouldn't you just buy online :)

Fstar · 15/09/2018 23:10

Love m and s trousers and jeggings, so soft and easy to wear and defo suck you in a bit

YukonGold · 16/09/2018 20:02

I bought these today! They’re fab and a bargain at £15 Smile

Palmer1983 · 18/09/2018 09:38

I agree Yukon I think I'm gonna get another before there out of stock Smile

Mine have come and I'm wearing them today! Perfect fit and hides a bit of my tummy at least! They are sooo comfortable. It's like wearing my pyjamas! I'm a convert!

Mrsharrison · 19/09/2018 13:11

I've got a grey pair from last year and they're still my favourite. Think i'll stock up.

Borris · 20/09/2018 12:00

I’ve succumbed to 2 pairs and I love them. So comfy and look good too. Thanks Smile
