What jeans are we wearing?

[Ka1978]

Just that, really!

I have broken the skinny jean habit that I’ve had for years, and have been wearing White Stuff Freya jeans, but think I need something slightly wider at the bottom to wear with trainers / boots over the winter.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

Not sure if it’s important, but I’m mid 40s, size 12-14 and about 5’ 8, with a bit of a tummy!

Thank you

Still firmly skinny jeans!

I wear all sorts. Skinnies, wide leg, boot cut. The only ones I can’t get on with are barrel leg…make me look like a bandy legged idiot 🤣🤣

High waisted wide leg, mainly. Skinny jeans were so short people friendly, though!

I think it sounds like you’d suit a barrel leg, actually! They’re really practical for avoiding puddles. The guardian recommended the Whistles ones at the weekend. I’ve got those in black, via Vinted.

I wish I suited a barrel leg/mom cut - I look like an escaped toddler 😒

Levis rib cage wide leg.

You are a nice height so could pull off lots of styles. If you have a long body and short legs always wear high waisted jeans. Wide legs are very in at the moment. If you are more in proportion or have a shorter torso go for mid rise. I love M&S carrot jeans. I also have a pair of barrel leg from river island that are great

Skinny, boot leg and wide leg. Next, Guess and Holland Cooper. Guess mega comfy.

High-waisted wide-leg or a wonderful "slouch" pair (not that slouchy) from River Island—they're actually not v different from boot-cut

Never skinny as always seem to be problematic around the knees. Love Zara jeans

I have so many and all different including high waist barrel, men’s sraight leg, Levi’s kick flare sand skinnies , but haven’t bought anything new for years so not up to date! I love Mango jeans and also used to buy from Jigsaw, they both seem to cut to my shape (slim hip and flat bum )just bought a Mango mid rise straight leg on EBay waiting for them to arrive

Personally I love any type of wide, barrel or baggy jeans. Anything skinny or slim cut just doesn't suit me.
All time fav though are New Look Adalae wide legged jeans. They are very flattering with a nice high waist, i have them in dark blue, black, brown and leopard print (mostly from Vinted).

but think I need something slightly wider at the bottom to wear with trainers / boots over the winter.

I tend not to wear wide leg trousers in winter if I am outside because we usually get a lot of rain.

I have these M and S wide leg jeans and have had a lot of compliments

These are my first foray into wide leg jeans and I love them - the dark colour. They look smart .

Levi 501 & straight leg

I've worn barrel leg a lot for quite a while but this summer I've mostly preferred flares or wide legs. I still like a straight, narrow-ish leg sometimes but not skinny - I lost interest in them years ago and it's yet to come back.

Edited because I forgot to say which makes. Mainly Uniqlo, Levi, M&S. I don't have a lasting loyalty to any brand or, come to that, any style

I like M&S Mom and Boyfriend jeans. Not sure whether they are the most flattering, but I don’t think any jeans particularly are 🤷🏼‍♀️.

im mid 40’s, 5ft 7 and size 20

I’m currently wearing straight leg for everyday kicking about, wide leg or bootleg for a bit smarter, all M&S - I can’t go past them for jeans, tried other brands but always go back to them. Also have a pile of skinny jeans/jeggings in the wardrobe that I won’t ditch because they will come back into fashion (not sure they’ve ever really gone out)

Tu/Sainsburys are my go-to...a good selection and not too expensive.

I have loads of pairs from American Eagle's UK website - flared, barrel, wide and skinny. They have tons of styles and often go on sale - and have a cut just for people with big bums/hips but smaller waists, like me.

High waist relaxed barrel, carpenter flared, flared, straight - all Tu

I’m in Abercrombie barrel legs or slouchy mid-rise, and Damson Madder Felix jeans which are a straighter barrel cut. I have two pairs of Cos “drawstring denim trousers” which are very wide that I really like too - one navy and one in a more denim blue shade.

Barrel and wide with a heeled boot to keep them out of puddles. I always see people on here claiming they're still in skinnies but i haven't seen any of my friends or colleagues wearing them in literally years. i wonder if it's an area thing?

I’m your shape ish and barrel legs suit me. Even my mother says so… 😶

Yes - forever until the bitter end!

I’m short with hourglass figure and they’re the only style that don’t make me look shorter, are figure flattering and go with pretty much any top e.g, T-shirt, baggy jumper or fitted blouse 🙂
