I love those New Look hula jeans! They last for ages and are sooo flattering on the hips, tum and bum! Also I find they don't go baggy after a few washes, but they do sort of mold to fit your shape more so after a few washes they are really comfy without going saggy at all. Also I find after the 1st wash you can even wash them in with light colour clothes as the colour doesn't tend to run. Also you can get them in different leg lengths at larger stores, which is really handy but even in the Oxford St store they often don't have enough of the shorter lengths out which can be annoying.
Beware of dorothy perkins jeans, I've had some for about 3 months now and the colour still runs everytime I wash them. I once wore an across the body fabric bag and where the bag was rubbing on my hip as I walked the dye from the jeans transfered onto the bag!!!0 -
I've got 3 pairs of Hula jeans, bought about 4 years ago when jeans were my work clothes.....they've been washed to death & are only now starting to get a bit shabby.
I bought a pair of black bootcut jeans for Tesco today - bargain at £8......have got them on & will be taking them away at the weekend so will keep you posted!
Also, if you want to / can afford to pay a bit more, Next do some really nice higher-waisted bootcut jeans, quite thick denim in a dark wash......think they are only about £20, and they wash & wash well too, and hold the old muffin-top in a bit too!2021 Decluttering Awards: ⭐⭐🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇 2022 Decluttering Awards: 🥇

New Look 'Hula' jeans are good but quite high cut on the waist. Brilliant for the price though!
And was waiting for someone to mention the tesco ones, for £8 they are great. The denim fabric as quite thin but I prefer that especially in the summer.
I bought some in the bootcut, dark blue and they were great, really flattering - untill I went out, had a few too many vodkas, fell off my heels and ripped them... :-l

I am wearing some M&S jeans which are really comfy, high waisted, dark indigo and cost £19.50.
I can never find anything my size for jeans in Tesco. I actually think their clothing range has gone down the pan. There's more variety at Sainsburys now.I have a gift for enraging people, but if I ever bore you it'll be with a knifeLouise Brooks

Yes my sister rates Sainsbury's clothing range, she has a lovely mac from there and she bought my girls (aged 7)loads of summer tshirts and shorts and they wash fantastically and don't need ironingNo Unapproved or Personal links in signatures please - FT30

I love m and s jeans at the moment. They sit on the waist and are boot cut also good length. Even though i am only 5ft 4 i need 31 inch length. I need jeans that sit on th waist as i am curvy. No muffintop.LOL. Must admit i have never shopped at m and s before but i am pleasantly suprised.Think they were only £12.00 a pair and the dark colours are very flattering. Even got my very fussy daughter a pair and she loves them.

I like new look hula too - and occasionally new look do 20% off vouchers, so I tend to stock up on a few pairs at once at £8 a pair!!!0

I really need some low cut boot leg, dark blue jeans. I have quite a squarish hips/bum area and low rise jeans just make this look better.
Any reccommendations?I have realised I will never play the Dane!
