Please someone help me locate a pair of jeans.
I can't spend silly money (nothing over 50 quid)

I am tall, but height is in my body not my legs.
I'm size 10-12 on top, size 14 on bottom.

I have two hernias one just under my rib cage, one of the side of my belly button (both caused by surgeries - my body has been ripped apart in various ways. Only saying this because it means tight tops are no longer possible for me because they are very noticeable / and I hate hate hate / ashamed and embarrassed of what my stomach looks likes.

I don't want skinny jeans.
I want something comfy, and trendy (ish). But also, being swamped by a pair of big baggy trousers is probably going to do me no favours as I have to wear baggy tops because of the hernias

Help? what kind of 'style' jean am I looking for here? Where's good? (normally Asos/New look is my go to)

Mum jeans - especially if you're bottom heavy

M&S Harper cigarette jeans would probably work. They are very high waisted so good for a long body. Plenty of stretch for comfort

Flared jeans, Mango Sienna.

I'm tall (5'10''), with the length in my body rather than stubby legs. My bottom half is a size larger than my top half.

I am living in M&S boyfriend ankle grazer at the moment - £39.

I've just got some M&S Eva bootcut, I'm impressed. Nicest jeans I've tried on for a long time.

@AnotherFuckingUsername oooh thank you. These look nice. I am similar shape to you, tall but all in my body and bottom half larger than top. Love an ankle grazer as well
