with the advent of summer i am looking to spend my spare student loan on some new clothes... particularily some new jeans. I want CHEAP ones. anyone know where I can get any nice ones?

also anything else nice and cheap you've seen around I could get? (PRIMARK baby.. :lol: )

I also want some red stilettos and a red belt to go with a dress I'm wearing out Friday night. Again cheap! Anyone seen any?

    Not my fave place but for jeans and shoes i do reckon New Looks pretty good. The jeans are about the only ones i can find that fit my shape and they're around £15-23 i think. They've got red shoes in at the mo as well.

    I get my jeans from New Look too, they are the only shop that do my size, and just plain jeans with no chavvy bits, tassles, zips, holes and stuff.

    Yeh i like Asda jeans too... especially the wider legs ones which i get a size bigger and so they go all baggy. I get a lot of compliments on them :) people are shocked when i say they were from asda lol

    TK Maxx, though you need to be in the mood for a good rake. ;)
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    yeh i was gonna say tk maxx. i got a gorgeous pair of an american brand jeans for £14 instead of £60. like briggi said you need to be prepared to have a good root around!

    i got a really nice pair of jeans from tesco the other day for about £12
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I often pick up pretty trendy pairs in primark for around £10-£12 normally a bit more occasionally, sometimes less ;)

    I never find jeans that fit me in TKmaxx. They tend to only have really awkwards sizes in my local one, with 36inch inside legs

    new look jeans always seem to be really low on me, even if there not low-rise ones. i do have a really long body tho

    Peacocks is another one for cheap and cheerful :)

    I like jeans from New look.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I always have problems with jeans. I have wide hips so size 10 jeans come up quite tight around the hips but size 12 almost fall down and sag around the ass/thighs! So in-between sizes would be good. I'm still considering whether I can get away with the skinny jeans trend.. I don't have much of a bootay :p but I have a tummy and largish breasticles so I don't want to look top heavy.

    sounds odd, but if you can fit into childrens size jeans then i suggest that!! :yes:
    i went shopping yesterday and managed to find some roxy jeans (age 13-14!!) that i could fit into and were only £15!! not on sale either! childrens stuff is always cheaper.

    plus i find they always are more flared than a lot of adults ones which i like!!!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Yeah, kiddies stuff is tax free- trainers are a bargain too. Try H&M kids wear. And, if you've got a kiddie, you can wear matching outfits... How sad am I? lol
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    They're a bit more expensive but M&S per una range has good jeans.Well lots of different sizes and styles to suit. I have such a problem buying jeans coz I'm so friggin short.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Internacional

    All my best and cheapest jeans are from there.

    My last bargain was £11 and they fit me perfect
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
