Where to buy girls jeans (not skinny, not jeggings)

balletshoes

Tesco usually have loads of normal T-shirts for girls that age. My DD doesn't like jeans of any description, I think she was probably about 6 the last time she had a pair she liked (and they were 3/4 length). She lives in leggings and long T-shirts, and she definitely looks like a little girl in them .

I've got nice tops from Primark/Tesco for my lot too... when you say t-shirts do you just mean like the type men wear? And straight leg jeans, like men wear? Boy is your DD going to get bullied when she's older if she has to dress like a boy!

Next have nice jeans (bootcut not skinny)
Primark also do nice bootcut jeans
Tesco can be very hit and miss (and some of it isn't very tasteful I'll admit - but it's not all snakeprint leggings)
Sainsburys has a more 'conservative' market and therefore the clothes are less showy than some of what you get in Tesco.

If you have the money go to Next, none of that is trollop-y that I've seen.

I bought my dd who is 7, tshirts from debenhams, they are lovely and arent tight. She sometimes wears them with jeggings. I dont think she looks like a trollop :-/. What about Next or BHS? I do think its harder to find jeans that aren't skinny or jegging type, I do prefer them on my DD, she always looks lovely ;-)

H&M have some nice girls jeans - they do skinny ones but also bootcut/wide leg ones.

I would like to add though that girls wearing skinny jeans or jeggins doesnt make them look like a trollope. What a bizarre idea which says more about you than it does about them.

Hmmm for me it's about making my DD dress her age. She's 3 and the only jeans I can find are skinny or jeggings. However I'd rather she wasn't dressed as a mini me (not that I wear skinny jeans but you see my point) and as a little girl, not a fashion doll.
Perhaps that's was the OP meant but phrased it rather poorly?

Possibly, but describing children who wear jeggings or skinny jeans and fitted tops as trollops is bound to cause offence! Not all jeggings are snake/leopard print, and not all tops that form fit are revealing or trampy!

I love my girls to look like little girls, now they are getting older it's more difficult, but for my youngest daughter (8), sometimes the pretty floral dresses she has aren't practical, yet jeggings and tees are (for comfort and practicality).

Just a quick search of next reveals alot of jeans in their range you'd find suitable :

Next, gap, H&M, Tesco, Marks and Spencer.

FFIW My 4 yo looks adorable and not at all trollop like in her skinny jeans - she wears them with a rainbow stripe t shirt and hoody - perfect from climbing trees, bike rides, blackberry picking and all sorts of other wholesome fun. In fact they are very practical as they tuck into wellies perfectly!

Not sure of what it is a 'little girl' should look like....no one complains when little boys are dressed in 'mini me' checked shirts like grown men wear ....

I dont think the OP was saying skinny jeans and jeggings make girls look like trollops, just that' in general' she doesnt want clothes that make her daughter look like a trollop?
OP Another vote for Asda and Tesco Value/smartprice jeans, they're plain bootcut jeans with a subtle pink stitching. (instead of the orangey stitching you get on boys jeans)

When I was a kid, I used to wear Gap Kids jeans. I was a bit of a tomboy and they had plenty of girls' jeans which weren't tight or attention seeking (ie with patches, glitter and stuff)...plus they ALWAYS have reduced rails so you can get a bargain if you wait.

You could try Boden or Monsoon possibly, I like Gap too but I tend to go more for cords than jeans for my girls, not sure if you would consider those.
