Jeans that fit!

Interesting thread - I have very heavy fat legs and most jeans look awful on me. I used to get some denim looser fit jeggings from George at Asda that were flattering for me but now discontinued.

Ceesnan your suggestion about the Cindy Slouch might be worth a try for me, thanks for the thought. They look looser on the leg and comfortable.

Yes carolynswalsh Asda jeans are great but I am very tall and our George no longer do the long leg. Hopeless. Come in Asda we all have different heights sizes etc x

Yes Asda and bring back the Moda denim jeggings please - hundreds of great reviews and you stop selling them!!

I agree about Asda jeans and also wish they'd do more in the longer length. Hardly any in the shops and not much choice online either. On the other hand, they seem to stock plenty of short length ones!

I bought two pairs of jeggings in Sainsbury's last weekend. I am a standard size 14 and they fit perfectly. I love them and can't understand why it has taken me so long to buy them!

Ana, it's known as Sods Law!

David Emmanuel jeans from BonMarche. These I found were a good fit - the denim ones not the black ones (they came up a bit loose and I had to down a size) They sit on the waist and have stretch. I am happily sitting in a pair right now which I bought earlier in the year. Definitely need 31" leg tho - 29 comes up a bit short.

Try Fifty Plus - on line - they have a good range - I have just bought their bootcuts - 5 different lengths - for £16 currently in their sale. They fit a treat.

I have just purchased a pair of black, straight leg, short length jeans from Bon Marche. They fit beautifully and only £18! Bargain I think. I cannot wear jeggings or skinny jeans, they wrinkle on my legs and baggy around the ankles, I am a size 12 in some shops and a size 14 in others. I tried various styles of petite size in Next and none of them fitted well at all. I have bought a pair of straight leg from Sainsbury's and they fit well, although I had to take them up a couple of inches. I am only 5ft 1in. I prefer flat or low heels now, so finding the right leg length can be difficult. I too like Asda jeans, just not always got the leg length I need.

I bought some holiday clothes yesterday in Matalan . I hate trying on clothes but I'm glad that I did ! One pair that I tried on in an 18 were too big in the waist and saggy in the bum but the same pair in a 16 wouldn't go over my knees ! The other 16's were great - really happy with all my purchases ! Nice tops in there , too !

I can never get jeans that fit without digging in but also stay up on my waist! If they are big enough not to really dig into my waist and give me a huge muffin top, then they just slide down my backside when I've taken a few steps. I hate wearing belts because if they're tight enough to keep the jeans up then they just contribute to the muffin top look . I'm 5'4" and also have rather big thigh and calf muscles due to lots of walking (but it does give you a nice tight bum lol) so often they are just too tight and / or long on the legs. I have tried every make, style and shape known to mankind, but nothing is right. Am I just too fussy? Am I destined to live the rest of my life in dresses and M&S stretchy wide leg trousers ? Help.....

I hav also bought the wonder fit asda jeans size twelve in skinny leg got them in light blue and black they fit great and look fab

I love NYDJ and they wash really well Two pairs went from me to DD (i lost weight ,she gained)Then back to me. Yes you guessed... I reckon they did 6 years (and DD works in jeans,I live in them )
I don't have much trouble with fit but find most brands fade really quickly
Am wearing Sainsburys at the moment but have promised myself some NYD when I have lost that last 10lbs

On the subject of jeans - I was out with three old school friends yesterday (all either 70 or about to be) and they were all wearing jeans. Can't imagine our mothers ever wearing them!

Jeans are my favorite outfit. Recently, I bought a pair of jeans in blue color from Forever21. I love my jeans.
Thanks!!

Nothing but NYDJ here. Expensive but fit well and keep their shape and they do last.

Against my better judgement I tried on a pair of jeggings in M&S today. Why can't their designers understand that someone with a size 16 waist is going to have size 16 legs? I could barely get the lower leg over my foot, never mind up my shin!

Lucky you Deedaa, leggings are the work of the devil, IMO of course. I have been flogged for my opinions on leggings in the past, and probably will now. Go for a good fitting pair of jeans, a ladies bum looks very sexy in jeans, IMO, of course. Leggings are fine under a short skirt, but without can display features that are best left unseen.

OK, I shall now stand against the wall and wait for things to be thrown at me.

BTW, for those few that don't know I am not a woman, so am well qualified to judge the sexiness of a ladies bum, having made a lifelong study.

I know I shouldn't try it, but some of my friends look really good in them

Actually I was watching some of the King's Troop getting ready yesterday and I thought their black breeches showed off their bums very nicely. The standard of snooker players' bums doesn't seem to be anything like as good as it was a few years ago - no reason to watch it at all.

Go on try them, you may be surprised how good you look. I don't know anything about ladies jeans (or men's for that matter) but some do look far better than others, I think it is the cut of the jeans rather than the bum contained therein. So try a few different ones. I am available for unbiased opinion.

At the moment my weight seems to be up and down like a whore's drawers, and below the waist, what will fit one day, doesn't the next!

I have dug out several pairs of jeans from the back of the wardrobe, sometimes one pair are fine, the next day I have to think again!

Interesting turn of phrase there Pheonix (would it have seemed amusing, if I had used it ?)

Sorry if it offended anyone, it's a sort of family phrase, along with "in and out like a fiddlers elbow" !

We know GT !!!
