Anyone know about jeans styles for women? 13:38 - Mar 28 with 5233 views | giant_stow | Mrs ullas needs some and its her birthday, so I'm getting her some, the lucky little thing. She's no longer keen on the figure hugging styles, so what's the name of the looser ones? Do I want straight, loose or bootcut? And if there any women reading this, what's the best high street shop for jeans for shorties? [Post edited 28 Mar 2017 13:38]

Anyone know about jeans styles for women? on 13:53 - Mar 28 with 1611 views | Ryorry | There's no substitute for trying on, so if you do buy, make sure they can be easily returned. I prefer loose-fitting cargo pants to jeans these days - more comfortable - does she definitely want denim? Just go into M&S (or whereever) and have a wander round to understand the different styles (and lengths). Or look at online companies like Cotton Traders, who usually have some good stuff & have been going a long time. http://www.cottontraders.com/uk/women/trousers+shorts/icat/womens-trousers-short | |

Surely the best way is to take her out to try various styles on, to see what she likes, what feels comfortable and which suit her best to get the right ones for her? Or are you not really allowed to be seen out together? | |

Thanks mrs - much appreciated. I'll have a look at MandS and Cotten traders. I can't really ask her to go shopping with me as she'll deny she needs them and then say we're too skint to buy anything but the usual street market plop. I have to buy them for her so its a done deal. top tip on returns - I'll go to physical shop in the nearby mall. Now, do I buy size 10 or 12?! gawd.... [Post edited 28 Mar 2017 14:00]

This has to be done without her, as per my reply to Rrory. | |

if M&S go for 10, or you could risk "so you think I am putting on weight" comment on opening them. | | | |

I'm 5'7" and slim, vary between a 12 & 14 if that's any help! Waistbands at least part-elasticated are a boon ... | |

Not a lot, only from doing the washing when I lived with my ex. Not to discourage you, but she always used to moan that she struggled to find jeans that fitted her well. | |

I wouldn't go and buy KJ any jeans without her trying them first. Jeans are far too personal and need to be right, probably more so than any dress/top/skirt etc. Unless you know exactly what would be spot on (which to be fair, it doesn't sound as though you do) I wouldn't take the risk. | |

I find that Gap are 'flattering' with sizes (at least in men's trousers) so you can safely buy on the smaller end of the expected size range. But make sure you use the UK sizes cos they will show US sizes too. | | | |

Anyone know about jeans styles for women? on 14:51 - Mar 28 with 1406 views | vapour_trail | No offence to Ryorry but don't go to m&s or cotton traders or Mrs ulla will leave you. Get yourself down diesel and they'll sort you out. If in doubt buy a size too small and she can change them. Better than going the other way. Finally, please wish your mum a happy birthday from all of us. | |

I didn't say go to M&S to buy, I said go there to sus out styles & length! Same with Cotton Traders, tho I'd be more likely to buy from them - best pair of trousers I ever bought was from there - lined cotton cargo pants for about £20, with numerous pockets, elasticated waist & zip out legs to shorts - still wear them regularly 10 years later. | |
