What style and brand of jeans

Im well out of the loop as to whats in, whats not, Ive spent the past few years in a deep depression, hiding away , living in leggings and baggie tees getting fat and frumpy

So now I've pulled myself out of that hole, lost a shed load of weight and have a new job where jeans are to be worn

Now Ive been making do with old skinnies and jeggings that I have had forever. I like skinnies

Now my problem is, the skinnies are now hanging off my legs and the bums are sagging down to my knees. Im a size 10, with room, but cant fit an 8. An 8 fit lovely on the legs, but my days of lying down to squeeze into a pair are long gone. I have really skinny arms and legs

So what style of jean would give me some bum and suit the skinny bottom of me? What brands should I be looking at? I also prefer high waist, Im nearly sixty and tend not to like any muffin tops to be showing

Oh, Im in the sticks of Northern Ireland , where I am theres not the shops to go in and try on loads of pairs to find "the jean" In my youth we used to go to dickie dirts on the kings Road and come out blue from trying up to 30 pairs to get the fit :)
