Size 16 jeans help:)

So I've lost 3 stone - and I am looking for some new jeans but I've massively overwhelmed :)
I have a short body from my waist up so need high waisted styles as my legs and lower body are longer and I often get camel toe with lower waist styles
I like a stiffer but not too stiff denim so they look smart ish - I like the wide leg / barrel leg shape
And would love recommendations for the cheaper and mid price range (up to £100 ish) to get something that washes and wears well

Thank you xxxx

Sainsburys, I buy most of my jeans from there now.
I have paid up to £100 for jeans before but my Sainsbos ones for around £20 are the best ones I have ever had.
I am a 16 too

I'm massively overwhelmed not I've.

I'm looking at Baujken, Aline, And /or and other stories, mango, new look and Abercrombie but would really welcome suggestions and recommendations

M&S is worth a shot. P

I have jeans from Baukjen and Hush that were in the £100 region BUT my Sainers ones are still better

I'm a 16-18 and these from GAP are my current favourites:

I don’t know if they do wide leg but the M&S magic jeans are great.

I got some from Asda they're really comfy

Matalan jeans the best for me. Comfy, great for curvy hips and generous sizing. Best I've tried

So flipping generous I can step in and out of a zipped size 8 and as a 60 year old woman with middle aged spread , whilst flattered, its vanity sizing gone mad

M&S stretch skinny are great
