The perfect jegging/stretch jeans!?

    I am always searching for the perfect pair of jeggings or stretch jeans..
    I'm a size 8 with a little bit of a muffin top.. so size 10 is too baggy on the thigh and leg and bum and size 8 fits but is a little too tight.
    I'm wearing Penney's old jeggings at the mo and they're ok but not great.
    The new jeggings they have in Penney's are higher waisted and aren't as nice..

    I'm willing to pay any amount of money to buy a nice pair!!

    My favourite skinny jeans are from Tesco, much better fit than Penney's, New Look etc IMO!

    I second the RI Molly's.

    Along the same lines... how did you all keep your black jeggings from fading in the wash? I now have a DP's, RI and warehouse pair that are grey originally black.
    I use washing liquid for blacks but still the same result. Any advice? :confused:

    You should dye them black again :)

    Wash them inside out, and at 30 or 40 degrees unless they're actually stained... As for dying them again, works well, Dylon machine dye is excellent for faded black jeans

    The best skinny jeans I have ever bought are out of Forever 21. I love the material. They are so comfortable!

    These ones are pretty good and cost €30:

    I have a couple of pairs and read about them here first:

    They suit me as my legs are quite short!

    The navy ones do transfer colour though so be careful if you've a light coloured handbag.

    I like the jeggings from Gap, they are a lot more comfortable than other brands I've tried.

    Just bought a pair FINALLY!
    They are great! My dream jegging I think :)
    Thanks so much.
    Just one thing.. did you find the dye transferred, should I wash them on their own before wearing.. I had a bad incident with navy denim jeggings where I had smurf legs for the day!

    Thanks :)

    They're amazing, so flattering.. My ass has never looked so pert in my life!
    How can something so light and flimsy hold everything in!

    Great, I'll throw them in on a cold wash (inside out!) when I get home.

    THanks again :)

    Vero Moda Wonder Jeggings are fab. I have a pair on right now that I got in December, wear them every week and they are perfect, no stretching at all.
