Damn jeans don't look good any more

[Denverdoll]

I am 66 this year and am currently struggling with jeans. They just don't flatter me anymore. I live in the counryside and need practical but comfy and i would love to look cool as well. I like the look of wide leg trousers on me but i feel they do not look so good when stomping about in hiking boots. I am now wearing cotton traders bootcut jeggings. They are ok but do give me a mono bum shape. HELP ME! ifeel old and frumpy instead of cool and edgy!Getting older is making me despondant about all my clothes. I have slim hips and legs but a bit of a tum and i hate it.

I really like these and have a couple of pairs

OP, I think you might try changing brand of jeans. Have you tried different cuts, because that will make a huge difference.

Toast have some very stylish Japanese denim blue barrel leg jeans @£225 or the ecru, same style @£165.

Tu at Sainsbury's also have great barrel legs @£25. They're a great shape.

Cos have slight barrel jeans @£85 I think they call them Arch tapered jeans.

Cos also do a straight leg which I really like in dark denim and a lighter blue. I sometimes either roll these up or have one deep roll up hem. I'm not sure of the price but around £90.

If you like the straight jeans look, which may be the way to go for a classic look, Levi high waist ribcage straight are also really good. Around £85 I think.
