The Oasis jeggings have made my life happier

I hated jeggings. Gave the pair I bought from Next last year away after 1 try. But then I saw a lots of positive comments about the Oasis jeggings and feeling very uncomfortable in my skinnies with serious muffinage I decided to try some. I bought a second pair the next day and have worn them every day! They fit perfectly, are high enough to cover the muffin, wash fine and keep their shape all day. I love them.

Might give them a try. I'v avoided jeggings /leggings for ages but now I'm begining to think I might dabble!

Hmm, have been searching today (none in the sale). Are they really that good? Have resisted so far but my mum bought me some really tight boots, too tight for jeans.

Oasis or Urban outfitters? Oasis's are £35 but have 20% off, Urban outfitters £25 in the sale. Will I regret it? How's oasis for sizing? Am a generous 12.

I'm 40. Am i too old for jeggings...mutton dressed as lamb an all that?

Don't think so Nikita, mentioned that I might get some to my mum (49) who said 'Oh yeah, I've got a few pairs' . Jeez my mum is more fashion conscious than me!

Got some Oasis ones in my basket with discount code, but have yet to press 'buy' yet.

are they denim look leggings or really tight jeans?

TrinityReindeer · 25/12/2009 20:28

what are jeggings?

MerlinsBeard · 25/12/2009 20:46

jeggings = jean leggings

I have some of these too - I think they're good

Another vote for the Oasis jeggings - I've got them in black denim. Size wise I think they come up small - I had to get a size bigger.
Am going to get another pair for "best" though as mine already gone a bit grey at the knees (but that is coz I am always on them clearing up after the dd's - happens to all my trousers/jeans.....ggrrrrr - don't think it's the fault of the jegmeisters)

I am thinking of buying a pair of jeggings, but i do wonder if they are flattering. Do they make your thighs look bigger.?

monkeysmama · 28/12/2009 08:29

I don't have big legs but they make mine look slimmer. The Oasis ones that is. The Next ones made me look like a sausage.

Do they slip down? I'm thinking of buying some today but i'm worried i'll have to keep pulling them up.

monkeysmama · 28/12/2009 09:50

Nope. Nice & high too. I finally decided to give them a chance after my skinnies drove me mad needing yanking up every 5 minutes.

I'll have to give them a go then, thanks.I'm heading to Oasis for a dress anyway.
