I think I've just bought the same jeans! I tried on a few other pairs, but ditched them when I saw these (and didn't bother trying on as they were the same size) - got them home and I can barely do them up

Have you thought about doing your own...?
I did, I used Make your own jeans..Google it , you need time and a tape measure but you get exactly what you want x:D

Hello you lovely, helpful ladies

Do you think with my sizes (30 top, 26 bottom) I could get away with wearing white linen trousers (the lady a few pages back showed them on a photo and she looked lovely) or do you think it will make me look bigger? I always wear black ones in the summer,

I could team them up with a coloured top as my tummy is my worst bit, I get sick of people saying "OOH, you must be nearly due" so I've to wear baggy top to hide the "bump" lol so I can't get tops that gather under my bustline, like an empire style.

I would need the trousers to be a short length and they would be so much cooler and look fresher, the lady who posted the photos looks really nice in them.

Hope you are all well, thanks

I'm a size 20/22, and recently bought a pair of white linen trousers ~ they look stylish, simple and are easy to dress up or dress down according to the situation. I used to have a wardrobe full of black trousers (I often looked like a member of the clergy..... ) but have recently decided to luxuriate in my curves rather than try and hide behind a monochrome dress code. I'd go for it ~ enjoy the summer, and enjoy dressing for it!

I'm a big fan of Joe Browns clothes ~ found via Simply Be or, as I usually do, thro' EBay ~ they go up to a size 30 + and make me feel less like a criminal for my extra pounds.

GOOD ON YOU! :T :T :T
there should be less women hiding behind dark baggy clothes, and let's be proud of who we are!

Hi Kate,
Your best bet would be to go for a white top also, wearing one colour slimmers and elongates. White is a lovely colour to wear providing you have no dogs and kids to ruin it for you! White actually lightens a person(not so solid and heavy) you can also add lots of statement jewels and bag in any colour. White shows off a little tan and brightens your complexion.. so what are you waiting for?! P.S A must..Skin colour knickers NOT white xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:cool:

I always think Dawn French has a beautiful face, but I wish she wouldn't wear so much black all the time. I don't think it's flattering.

I'm off to find some white linen trousers now.

Sorry its late in the day, those of you lucky enough to have a Tesco that does the True range nearby. Tesco has 50% off all ladies wear today 10th June & tomorrow 11th, think there were some exclusions like not underwear & nightwear, sorry can't remember, off for a look tomorrow to see what they have in as I spotted in the tesco near me that doesn't do True so will need to go to the store at the other side of time that does.

Hi

I need help with a dress for a wedding (day guest) I am a size 20 at the moment but hoping I can get to an 18 by the time the wedding comes. I was looking for a wrap top, maybe 50's style, or maxi style, I have started to tear my hair out as I can't find anything suitable! I am a young 39 years old.

Thanks x
