Slim or skinny fit Jeans that sit on your waist?

Following baby no 2 I am now the proud owner of a lovely flabby belly. As much as I have aspirations to do 3 hours of Pilates every evening and lose the tum I don't see it happening any time soon.

I am sick of said belly hanging over my jeans. Any suggestions for shops that sell slim fit jeans that will actually sit on my waist and not just above my pubes?!?

ta!

I get most of my stuff from river island.

But I've taken to wearing tunic style tops/floaty tops in t shirt fabric/ anything that's loose. Most of the time with skinny jeans.

Hides my belly and still don't feel like a frump.

The Next high waist skinnies are really nice and hold you in a treat. Got mine for £2.99 on Ebay Grin

Topshop kirstens are high waist skinnies which are pretty good. Size down tho!

Marks and Spencer Jeggings are skinnies that come up to your waist and contain the mummy muffin top nicely!

M&S £12.50 jeans. Amazingly good for the price and plenty of height to tuck your flabby belly into. Strongly recommended.

My Goldsign Virtuals sit on my waist perfectly and are so comfy I forget I'm wearing them. Bit £££ though.

Dorothy Perkins Baileys are bottom and tummy covering, without being too high rise - and very reasonable!

HM Slim leg with regular rise are brilliant. I have 4 of them.

Another vote for the Kirstens in Top Shop. I'm a size 12 and their 28 inch waist fits and holds in my waist.

Superdry high waisted rockabillys. They don't gape at your back end either. Size down though, even if you try them on and think they are tight. They stretch a bit.

Next high waist, Topshop Kristen, and New Look do some fantastic high waisted, but not in a wide range of colours unfortunately...

Next high waist skinny!! Made for reining in those tums! Have a pair of a-wear ones - not nearly as industrially strengthened

Topshop Jamie Jeans, skinny and mid rise (just under my navel). Stretchy without being shapeless and come in some nice colours Smile

Do the next ones stretch, or go baggy after a few hours?
