do you have a link ?

Are you talking about the Limited Collection ones?

I tried those on and thought they were good - they made me look amazingly slim and not at all penguin-like.

(Generally, I have a slight skinnies-phobia as a result of early-life trauma; I grew up in the post-punk era and can remember squeeeeeezing myself into jeans I then sowed myself into. Not a good look.)

I was a bit doubtful about the colour of the denim. What did you think?

sowed yerself??

Did you scatter handfuls of seed liberally up your thighs??

cherryblossoms · 06/03/2009 22:05

Ho ho Moondog - well spotted. Your proofreading skills are truly impressive!

Actually, I think scattering seeds, watering and waiting to grow would have been way preferable. And I might have actually grown into a shape that fitted the jeans.

Groan - horrible memories are now flashing before me; I had pink, yellow and orange jeans too. Oh yuk!

moondog · 06/03/2009 22:08

I remeember sewing myself into jeans too, with big rough stitches.
Oh, and sitting in a cold bath with them on.

Madness.

Moondog -

But where has cocolepew gone, with her news of non-trauma-inducing M and S skinnies? And hopefully, a link?

mrsmaidamess · 07/03/2009 13:20

is it these?

Goodness, they go up to a size 24.

cocolepew · 08/03/2009 10:25

That's the ones. They aren't too low on the waist and not too tight around the ankles. I got the lightish blue.
