does anyone know where i can get some decent pairs of leggings for longer legs .... i can't find any that are decent quality .. i don't want them going baggy on the knees :rolleyes:

I got mine from Dorothy Perkins. They have regular and long length and mine do not go baggy on the knees. They are £12. They may have longer ones in their tall range but I didnt look as the long ones were long enough for me.

If you're willing to pay, then these are the best in the business...

Oh! What a shame!

If you check the website, they're all sold out, except for the cheap ones.

Like I said though, IF you're willing to pay.

If you're a 'big' leggings wearer, then it makes sense to pay extra. You could buy 20 pairs of cruddy £10 leggings, and find each time that they wrinkle, go baggy round the knee, etc etc etc...

OR, you could save up, and buy 1 pair, that you know are going to keep their shape, fit you like a glove, and last you for many many years to come. THAT is moneysaving.

I have several pairs of New Look's £8 ones. I'm not sure how tall you are but I'm 5'10" and they're plenty long enough for me. After wearing at times they do stretch a bit and go baggier but I tend to bunch them up at the ankles which doesn't look odd like it does at the knees.

Ive got the 'simple' pvc leggings... I know theyre expensive, but as I said earlier, you couold 'try and fail' with a couple of pairs of ten quid leggings, OR, buy one pair of REALLY good quality ones, which will last and never loose their shape.
I wear mine at least once a week, so although the outlay is expensive, they will last and last. Thus making them very moneysaving!

I have leggings from marks and spencer, H&M, new look and top shop, but my best ones are actually from primark believe it or not. They have not gone at all saggy, have very strong lycra so 'hold you in', haven't gone bobbly or washed out in colour, however I have had them a year now and they have started to go a bit thin on the inner thigh so need new ones. The length was fine for me (ankle length) and I am 5'8, I have found most others too short TBH, more like pedal pushers.

My primark leggings were £1.50 and I have 2 pairs, so £3 a year on leggings is not too much to pay, however I must admit the thought of paying £400+ on leggings make me nauseous! Obviously I'm not into my designer stuff (I make and customise my own things, or buy on the high street or in charity shops) but I really am in shock over that! MSE???
