They’re like slightly looser skinny jeans but not quite mom jeans. No rips or anything

Anyone know? I dont even know what to google?!

Sounds like what I’m wearing - girlfriend jeans from H&M and Next.

M&S Sienna for me - I have them in 3 colours!

Straight leg?

GertrudeTheGreat · 02/04/2021 21:54

I think you might mean girlfriend jeans or maybe straight or slim cut

If everyone is wearing these, I am accidentally fashionable!

This cut has been my go to for years.

Relaxed skinny

DaphneBridgerton · 02/04/2021 22:24

I'd say slim/straight leg jeans

Kenshi · 02/04/2021 22:34

I've been wearing straight leg rather than skinny for a couple of years now, once I made that switch I instantly felt it looked so much cooler and more flattering.

GertrudeTheGreat · 02/04/2021 22:36

I like straight leg too. They are more comfortable and timeless I think.

PrintempsAhoy · 02/04/2021 22:42

Girlfriend jeans

idontlikealdi · 02/04/2021 23:12

Straight leg or paper bag if you want the gathered waist

ShrikeAttack · 02/04/2021 23:53

Straight leg.

Straight leg. So much more flattering that skinny.

hellcatspangle · 03/04/2021 07:24

I think you might be on about barrel leg jeans

Lockdowndramaqueen · 03/04/2021 07:47

Or paper bag jeans - tops are like a paper bag. Not as loose as barrel leg and not as tight as straight cut.

PrintempsAhoy · 03/04/2021 11:34

Paperbag trousers make one’s bottom look absolutely huge

I just can’t cope with it Grin even though big buns are fashionable now Smile

MindBodyChocolate · 03/04/2021 19:50

I was thinking barrel leg - they’re a more modern looking cut than slim or straight.

The Siena ones from m&s are a bargain.

They’re girlfriend I was thinking of! Thanks all - I was this close to stopping people and asking them where they got their jeans

Barrel leg? I get mine from Monki, they're about £40 and I LOVE them. Flattering, fitted at the waist, make your bum look good, loose leg, tapered at the ankle. I roll mine up as I'm short. Whistles do them for about £95 too.

CoffeeandCakeEqualsLove · 09/04/2021 18:34

What shoes are you all wearing with the girlfriend style? Everything I try just looks stupid to me...

Betsy88 · 09/04/2021 19:24

I just got some lovely barrel leg ones from M&S.

NicelySpicy · 09/04/2021 20:46

I’ll echo @CoffeeandCakeEqualsLove - what shoes please? Everything I wear with them looks ridiculous Confused

Squiz81 · 09/04/2021 22:16

I’ve got girlfriend jeans from Fatface, they are very comfortable. I fold the bottom up and wear them with ankle boots or trainer. I find I have to fold up or they do look odd.
