It’s not you, it’s the jeans! Aww yes this is true! Mummy Ask has quite a few pairs of jeans in her closet. You can see her model front and back for your amusement and so that you can see – it’s not your body, it’s the jeans. I think seeing the pics lets you see how different you can look in different jeans

If you’ve been paying any attention at all, it’s about working with what you have. Don’t be down on yourself if you haven’t reached your own unreasonable ideal. This is all about doing the best thing for you and not hankering after something that will never be. Mummy Ask rocks a skinny leg in a way I will never! I love my super high waist skinnies, even though I’m big. Never let fashion dictate to you but if you want to optimize, these pics send a very clear message. One body. Eight pics. Eight looks.
And just for comparative purposes, here is a pic of me wearing my beloved high waist skinnies-
How not to crumple in a heap buying jeans –
- Change rooms are brutal. Put on a good made up face for you
- Wear you’re ordinary knickers
- Do your hair in a style that can be messed with
- Wear a top you love
- Bring or wear the shoes you mean to wear the jeans with
- Bring a brutal but kind friend
- Make friends with sales staff – they know their product
- Leave with style number, color and size, just in case you want another pair
- Can you sit down comfortably?
- Are you happy with the fit?
