Well, they look like the kind of thing I might wear if I was going on a long plane journey too - useful pockets.

gardening? Don't they have handy pockets?

The most I do is nip round the shop..

Craghoppers are clothes for wearing when you are striding up mountains or running the fells.

I can't understand why any of you have even mentioned ripped jeans. They certainly aren't meant for anyone over about 30. And the number of fat women I've seen wearing cold shoulder tops - ugh.
Also think leggings look better on young SLIM people. But then a lot of people don't care as long as they're comfortable. Each to his own.

I agree with MOnica, I don't look right in shapeless craghoppers, so not for me. I wear jeggins/leggins in all sorts of colours with long johns underneath in the winter...sooooooooooo comfortable. I also like to wear cheerful bright jumpers and shirts on the top, as I hate dull green, grey, black and brown look of winter.

I wear jeggings, but always have to chop the legs as I am vertically challenged!

Yes I've realised my legs are under my bottom not on top.

All those who wear skinny jeans-please advise me.
How the hell do you get them on???!! Obviously I'm missing a trick here because although I'm a size 8 I have never, never managed to get the bloody things up my legs. Yesterday saw me having yet another failed attempt. I can see that they will fit me on my waist and bottom but the legs ??? I do not have great giant legs on top of a small arse. Help!!!

Well ladies, if I could I'd write this in green ink I would! I'm quite slim but I have "sturdy" legs. I would love to wear slim fitting jeans/jeggings/leggings, especially with boots or flat shoes, but I just don't have the courage. Good luck to you all!

I am still thankful that jeans are now cut so they fit around the waist. I don't wear them myself, but I hated seeing people wearing them flashing their thongs as they walked along, and showing most of their bums when bending over, not to mention the rolls of fat hanging over at the top.

I'm all for skinny jeans, jeggings etc. but what I can't stand is the close fitting type of covering (usually grey or white) worn with no knickers or a thong. Walking behind a jelly bottom (whatever the age or size) is not a good experience.

I love cold shoulder tops. I’m menopausal so they help me to wear a warmish jumper and still be able not to overheat.

I wear jeggings or skinny trousers. I am tall and slim ( now) so really enjoy wearing things I could not before I lost weight.
What are craghoppers, they sound froggy?

I wear Craghoppers for walking as they are practical and quick drying, but wouldn't wear them any other time, too frumpy. I wear slim jeans, jeggings and leggings other times, I think they are very flattering if you're slim and have decent legs. I'm not a slave to fashion, but I like to look modern

I love my skinny jeans and jeggings and have them in an array of colours - and I also wear leggings with a long top/short dress and knee boots. I am 72 and would not dream of wearing baggy (old dear) trousers, so unflattering.....

Each to their own, and each to their own budget too......
I have experienced a severe downturn in income over the last 20 years - and I mean severe.
I have not been in a clothes shop in all that time, all my clothes are from charity shops or ebay, and I have to make the most of what I can afford, and that is what I do!!
I like my own style, and to be honest, only see fashions on TV as I live in a fairly remote area......

From what I see out and about, I’ve come to the conclusion that many women who wear tight jeans/jeggings/leggings have never seen their rear view in a long mirror. Ogden Nash got it right (best read in an American accent):

Sure, deck your lower limbs in pants,
Yours are the limbs, my sweeting.
You look divine as you advance;
Have you seen yourself retreating?

Tight tee shirts on less than perfect figures (male ot female) are a dislike of mine, as well. You don't even need a long mirror to check what they look like.

Well sandelf, I see you've appointed yourself the dictator of what is acceptable and what isn't where trouser fashions are concerned. I never used to wear trousers at all until I lost weight & dropped from a size 16 to a size 12 and I have to say that I enjoy showing my legs off and wear both skinny jeans & jeggings with knee high boots on a regular basis. They make me feel feminine & attractive, my husband loves them & if you've got it, flaunt it! You can keep your Craghoppers - serviceable, boring & no doubt extremely good in bad weather but how drab!! I'll wear what I want thanks , even if I am one of the 90% !! Surely that's a bit high....!! I'm with you on the ripped trousers though....

I can't wear very tight jeans as I have thunder thighs and would look hideous. However I have found a couple of pairs of jeggings which I wear with long tops or tunics and find that comfortable. Absolutely can't tolerate ripped knees on anyone over 30! As for the tops with holes at the shoulders, someone told me they were designed for people to show off their tattoos. Don't get me started on that!

I wear slim fit jeans with ankle boots, but so far have shied away from jeggings and very tight jeans, although last year I tried on a pair of very slim cotton trousers with turnups and decided they weren’t for me. I tried them again this year, bought them and absolutely love them. I have to come round to things being a good idea gradually! Perhaps next year will be the year of the very tight jeans. Who knows! They’ll probably have gone out of fashion by then - I have been way behind the curve most of my life!

I wear what I find comfortable/warm and that is not jeans or leggings. I prefer to wear skirts and dresses anyway so I think I'm in the minority lol

Nothing wrong with jeggings, leggings or skinny jeans! I've been wearing them all for years, it's mainly leggings or jeggings now though. At the moment, I'm wearing blue jean leggings from Primark, a Salt Rock t-shirt and an electric pink boucle zip up cardi that I've had for so long that I've forgotten where I got it from.

Jeggings and leggings for me every time, with tunics or long jumpers. I mainly love them as they are so easy to move in and so versatile. For Gardening I throw on an old pair of cords over the top which gives a warm and practicle combination. I'm 71 and still happy wearing my jeggings out and about though allways with long tops.

My legs are too chunky and short to wear l/jeggings. I wear straight leg jeans or joggers with long tops.
One item of clothing that I wouldn't wear is the fleece jacket with giant animal prints. I think they are hideous! They seem to be very popular in my area for wearing to the supermarket.
