Chickendoodle Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I had to share as I think I have found the perfect jeans. They are called NYDJ (Not Your Daughter's Jeans) and I just wanted to cry when I tried them on yesterday in John Lewis. They actually fit on the waist (no more muffin top!!), they are stretchy and well, just amazing. You also buy a size smaller than usual which makes you feel good. Don't know where else they are stocked but here is the John Lewis link http://www.johnlewis.com/Search/Search.aspx?SearchTerm=not+your+daughters+jeans They have loads more styles in the range in the store - not cheap but oh so worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurpleTree Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I usually buy my jeans in the charity shop for a couple of pounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerryegg Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 What a price! I'll stick with the Next and New Look ones off the Hospice shop £1 rail and be proud of my muffin top! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aunty e Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I'm going after work. I need something to control the wretched mummy tummy, I hate my muffin top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladyjulian Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 They're how much?? You can get organic fairtrade jeans for less than that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Great in principal, but I will stick with the higher waisted M&S Portfolio range. They are not full high waist like in the good old 80's but they do control the muffin a bit. I also bought some crop length Per Una ones yesterday which sit pretty well on my waist. I couldn't stomach that cost, if you will excuse the pun. I felt bad yesterday for spending £109 on 4 items of clothing, and it was birthday money given to me to spend on clothes.

The Dogmother Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Great idea, but at that price, I will stick to my Gap and Fat Face jeans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicken bark Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I feel chuffed with my £10 jeans from New Look. But one day I might get a pair... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greyhoundgirl Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Personally I think they sound fantastic! I spend most of my life in jeans and am always disappointed when the imagined and actual images don't match somehow! Some things might be worthy of the money, even if it's just to make you feel 21 and a size 10 again. oh how I wish! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJuff Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Blimey I thought my White Stuff jeans at £50 were ridiculously expensive!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickendoodle Posted May 6, 2010 Author Share Posted May 6, 2010 Ah yes they may be expensive but when I add up the number of pairs of jeans that I have bought, never been happy with the fit and therefore hardly worn it makes them a bargain - thats what I told my OH anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJuff Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Fair point. It's good to wear what fits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I agree that the new M&S range are quite good, but I do need to buy a size bigger than I usually am which always upsets me Although at that price for those Jeans I would rather sick with my M&S, although next time I am in John Lewis I will have to try them on, just for research purposes you understand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Went to M&S the other day - I had a bit of a fit and had to get out - so cheesed off was I. So all the way I was ranting I hate this shop! I have to get a long leg and everything is so muddled, no colour cues so have to look at each label separately in the end I couldn't be bothered - life's too short. Jeans that fit, sighhhhhhhhhhhh!
