M&S high waist jeggings for apple shaped

13 replies

FuckOffDailyFailure · 26/12/2020 15:43

I've just treated myself to new long boots, to replace my beloved old pair which after years if frequent use, revealing and resoling have finally given up the ghost. Believe me, I checked with the cobbler; they can't be saved for anything like as cheap as buying a new pair!

Anyway, I want to wear the aforementioned boots over jeggings. What is the sizing like in M&S jeggings? I am skinny of leg, fat of tummy. I've gone for a bigger size in regular length to accommodate tummy. I usually go tall and smaller size but they then have to sit super high due to my apple shape high waist!

They are great and a good high waist. However, the sizing is very inconsistent. I have them in three different colours and there is quite a bit of difference in leg length and size between them.

Sorry, that went a bit waffley Xmas Confused.

The actalso question was, how is the sizing in M&S jeggings, considering skinny, long legs and large tummy? If anyone happens to know. Scuse ramble earlier!

Just re read your post. If you are normally a tall size I would go tall as the legs are on the short side.

And get your normal size rather than sizing up.

Thanks tiers! Damn it, I've sized up and gone regular length.

@FuckOffDailyFailure Well you might be ok. They do vary a lot in sizes from colour to colour! They are very comfy and wash really well.

Thanks! I think I'm really a bigger side on the waist. But if they come up big they might fall down. Will wait and see.

It's such an arse getting things sent and then returning at the moment. Otherwise, I'd just have bought both sizes and tried on!

I got them in a couple of different colours. Some were tighter than others.

FuckOffDailyFailure · 26/12/2020 16:39

Thanks nancy! Fingers crossed.

I got green, very tight, black and blue just normal fitting

FuckOffDailyFailure · 26/12/2020 17:21

I've ordered the navy ones. I don't need them to be a perfect fit, but don't want them digging in or falling down!
