your approach is the right one
I discovered some time ago what looks best on my shape and now I stick to it. which is why I wear flares all the time.

Flares are awesome
They're the best kind of jeans, but since shitty stupid skinny jeans came in fashion, hardly anywhere sells them.

I can't wait until I can fit into my WIDE flares again.
(they start narrow at the waist).
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Wed 19 Jan 2011, 13:25, Reply)

it's even harder for men believe me
fortunately, top man have for the last couple of years done a good line in flares, so I'm well equipped now.

Even my smart black work trousers are flared.

If I don't wear at least bootcut then I look ridiculous. Probably less so now I've lost a load of weight admittedly.

Lee cooper used to do awesome ones
I've still got ones from about 5 years ago. Then they closed down, so I moved onto GAP, and then they only did them in the outlet store, and now not even there.

most of my work trousers are lee cooper cords
try top shop. the men's jeans are pretty good, so the women's might be as well.

Monty is correct
I hate it. Hate it hate it hate it.
I occasionally buy earrings in top man though.

I don't generally wear trousers
My legs are reasonably shapely.

I find jeggings really attractive on a woman
(sorry Monty)- but I rarely see them get anything but rubbished.

I don't find them that offensive on the right woman.
It's the stupid fucking name that gets me.

WELL GET TO IT, OLD BOY.
EDIT I suggest you also start smoking a briar pipe and join a folk-singing club at your local real ale hostelry.

well, given where I am on secondment, it would be totally appropriate.
I'm on it.

I haven't gone that far yet
usually a thin jumper with a bit of a v-neck

although today I'm wearing the high neck partial zip style

I have some flared cords somewhere
And some 'boarder' type trousers which are quite baggy in the leg.

Aha,
I read your name as Lampito and then had great difficulty trying to picture her in mosher trousers.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Wed 19 Jan 2011, 13:35, Reply)

I'm struggling to picture that too
I don't wear them often at all, mostly just stick to jeans as they show off my amazing arse better.
