I swear by per Una Roma jeans. They sit nice on the waist and I don't get the baggy waist at the back I get from so many other jeans.:j I love bargains:jI love MSE0

I'd never tried them before but bought a pair on Saturday (and they were from M&S outlet so only £11.50) and found they fitted really well on my waist.
And people may think they're unflattering but I got them in bootcut because I really can't bear jeans which are tight on my calves and always feel like I look more 'balanced' in them than straight/skinny jeans.0 -
another vote for Gap curvy here - I had to buy some jeans last year on a weekend break in New York as I got soaked and didn't want to spend the plane journey home in wet clothes. I wouldn't normally have looked in Gap as I am a Next Tall/Long Tall Sally shopper but they have been great. I am 5'11" with size 14 bum and size 12 waist/top half.I’m a Senior Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Pensions, Annuities & Retirement Planning, Loans

I am pretty much the same size and height as you and I swear by my skinnies, baggy jeans, boot cut etc make me look huge!
I buy all my jeans from primark, they are pretty much all I buy in there.
The key to skinny jeans is the amount of elastene in them, the more the better, and cheap jeans have the most.
I recently bought a pair of 'push up, pull in' jeans from primark, they were £13 and they are uber comfortable, they are stretchy but feel supportive and have a higher waist than normal so no muffin top.
I have had tried and bought umpteen pairs of jeans cisting from £5 to £100 and I always go back to primark.
However, seven for all mankind are particularly flattering and comfortable but very pricey.I don't get nearly enough credit for not being a violent psychopath.0 -
