Where do you buy your jeans from?

My size 16s (UK) are now getting a bit baggy around the bum, so I think I may have to size down (woo hoo!). I have been buying my jeans in Next (bootleg or slim fit - don't like skinny fit) but would like to try from elsewhere. Any recommendations?

    My friend buys from there, but she is 6 ft where as I am only 5 ft 10 ". Not too keen on their cut.

    Hennes & Dorothy Perkins do nice jeans, their cuts tend to be a bot more generous so if you're not a perfect 14 this might work, their lengths are long too. Another place I found did reasonable priced jeans was Uni Qlo. I have the nicest pair of skinnies which fit me 18 months ago & in about 10 lbs time will fit me again. lol

    oh, also go to Debenhams, alot of their designers ranges do jeans & people like John Rocha & Jasper Conran make really nice jeans, although a bit pricier (but not much)

    I love Jasper Conran, so will definately try out Debenhams. I buy quite a lot of jumpers from Uniqlo, never thought about them for jeans, so will look there as well. Ta.

    uni qlo jeans do tend to be on the smaller cut so you might find a 16 better but i really like their design. got some lovely slim leg cords from there too (which also do not fit again yet!!) but their prices are reasonable too.

    River Island's reliable for me. But I don't need extra long jeans/trousers - my extra height is in my torso (Honestly... what's the good of being tall if you don't have long legs...)

    I go to all of the high end independent retail shops and specialty shops in my area. My fav brand is Kasil, but it is kinda hard to find around here so I usually settle for paige or dry aged denim.
