Just that really, I’m sick of skinny jeans. Have tried mom jeans in the past but they just look awful.
I’m a size 12, I’m 38 and I honestly think my body shape is the worst. Would love to know any recent successes.
TIA

@Chrysanthemum5 they are more like a chino type trouser but very stretchy and very flattering. The bottom is not cuffed so I wear mine rolled up or just tucked up depending on if I want them to be smart or casual. The navy look great with my denim shirt or my white boyfriend style shirt - and you can tuck in, for some reason they just hide your tummy, flatter your legs and are so comfy - I suppose that’s why they’re called magic 🙂. I wear them with trainers, boots, loafers and sliders last summer. I’m such a fan I buy them for people for birthdays!

I am definitely getting some!

@rina66 can i ask what is the sizing like on them x

Rina66 · 13/03/2021 15:17

I think they will fit easily up to a 16 due to the almost 4 way stretch - I’m a 12-14 with a tummy and they fit me well, not tight, not baggy, a comfortable sort of tailored fit. I’m 5ft 6 and rolled down they hit my ankle, I generally tuck them up to crop them to wear with boots/ loafers or roll them up for trainers.

Im struggling to dress myself too. Find dresses more flattering but not so practical for the many muddy walks or playground trips with a three year old.

Lee jeans are brilliant. I have Nelly ones and Marion ones. A Marks and Spencer size 10 ( I've just ordered a few pairs from M and S and sent every pair back) , I wear Lee 28 or 29 waist and 31 length. They wash well and last longer than other makes I have bought.
