Have lost a bit of weight - need advice on what kind of jeans to buy now!

[MrsPhilipGlenister]

I've managed to lose quite a bit of weight recently - am now somewhere around size 10 in skirts/trousers - am wearing size 12 Gap skinny jeans today but they are really too big for me now.

Question - what kind of jeans should I get in order to make the most of this? (It doesn't happen very often.) I am 5ft 6 ins but have short legs so I think that even when I am slim, I look a bit silly in skinny jeans unless I wear heels with them, which isn't all that practical most of the time!

well the guardian style thing said skinny jeans are over and bootcut with a high waist are back - the ones featured were over £100, but i'm sure there's more reasonable ones out there.

Gap Bootcut are nice, dark wash th emost flattering.
If ou have more money to spend then I recommend Seven for all mankind bottcut, you can get them in JOhn Lewis, fab jeans, super flattering to most body shapes.

Ooh, thank you, both of you - that's very helpful. About how much do the Seven ones cost? Think Gap might be more my budget!

They are about £140 ish new (you can get them on ebay but I wouldnt as there are loads of fakes around).
Having worn them and Gap jeans you can tell the difference. But Gap are pretty good for the money....

Try River Island I love their jeans are around £45 is for the nice ones

I see your dh most mornings btw

You can sometimes pick up seven jeans from TK Maxx. Not long ago I got about four pairs for about seven pound each.

But they are Seven, not Seven for all mankind, there is a difference

I have both. The seven for all mankind are the best jeans I have ever had (pity they don't fit me after ds)

Thanks, all, for the suggestions!

CD, I wish you wouldn't tell me things like that [panting emoticon].

Oh sorry!
