What style of jeans?

I'm trying to update my skinny jeans (but I do love them), and I'm not sure where to start.

I'm 53, 5ft 4" and size 16. Also pear shaped. I prefer high waisted to try and contain my stomach a bit.

I really want to update my look and have something different for a change.

Thank you!

Straight leg / mom jeans would be an easy transition from skinnys.
If you wear a small heel/ platform trainers bootcut would also work.

Go to M&S and try some on... keep us posted how you get on

I'm a short pear and like straight jeans or a kick flare (balances out my thighs). I know a lot of people hate them but surprisingly some barrel jeans work for me (hides thighs and shows ankles). Agree that you should go somewhere with a range of styles to see what works on your proportions - m&s, John Lewis, next etc.
