Jeans are such a wardrobe staple that we assume it’s easy to get a good pair. It’s not always the case so here are our favourites from the Marisota denim collection.

Bootcut Jeans

Finding a good, basic pair of jeans is a lot trickier than you would expect, there are so many shapes, colours and styles that it can be difficult to decide where to start. A pair of bootcut jeans is always a good starting point, this style suits every body shape and will balance out a multitude of sins. Plus they’re easy to pair with any kind of shoes.  This stylish pair of bootcut jeans is ideal for everyday wear; they’re just £24.00 – £26.00 so a total bargain. They come in a wide range of colours, including bleach wash, blue/black, indigo, true black, vintage wash and white, so you can choose your favourite shade!

Going Out Jeans

It’s nice to have a pair of jeans that are reserved for nights out, and we’ve got a couple of choices for you. We love these “Wow” jeans if you prefer a bootcut style. They’re made to make you feel fantastic and have special features like specially shaped back pockets and a slimming control panel to the stomach. You can get them in short length (28″ here) and longer lengths (34″ here) too!

If you prefer to wear skinny jeans on a night out, then these zip hem jeans are ideal! Just add heels and your favourite tunic top for perfect night out glamour!

Wide Leg Jeans

Sometimes what you really need is a good pair of comfortable jeans, and they can still look just as stylish.  There are two types of wide leg jeans to choose from, simple wide-leg or a more casual slouch style.
These slouch leg jeans are perfect for summer. They feature a comfortable knitted waistband and relaxed style, so just add your favourite sandals for perfect casual style.

Alternatively, if you prefer a smarter, wide leg style then these gorgeous Farrah wide leg jeans are just the thing. They’re perfect for wearing with wedges and a smart top for summer nights out! These come in a choice of black, charcoal or indigo, and in a range of lengths.

That’s just a taster of our jeans range, if you want to see even more choice then take a look at our jeans shop. The perfect place to find you new “favourite pair” of jeans!

Jeans are always a trusty wardrobe staple in the cooler months. That’s why I’ve put together a guide to my favourite styles from the Marisota autumn/ winter collection.

Top versatile jeans – for any occasion!

These gorgeous bootcut jeans by Changes boutique are the perfect pair of versatile jeans. The boot cut shape means they look as good with trainers as they do with heels and the butterfly detail to the back makes them perfect for smarter wear. They’re available in sizes 14 – 32, in a choice of black or grey and are just £45.00.

Instant bum lift jeans for a smarter look

Now, a style that is brand new to Marisota has recently surfaced and we’re loving it! They’re called WoW jeans (and they really are WOW!)

They feature a tummy smoothing front panel – without the stretch that’s perfect for holding you in, hidden elastic that’s adjustable so there’s no gaping at the back, shaped seams, darts and pockets to make your bum look perkier and a gorgeous boot cut shape so they suit any body shape. Perfect! They’re available in sizes 12 -32 and a range of lengths including 28 inch leg length jeans, 31 inch leg length and tall 34 inch leg length jeans and prices start at just £40 – bargain!

Cheat jeans – jeggings – a casual must have!

If you’re having one of those days and just feel like relaxing then plus size jeggings (denim effect leggings) are a great way to go – a similar look to skinny jeans but supremely comfortable just add a stylish tunic top or casual dress to finish off.

Marisota’s comfortable pull on jeans start at just £16.00 – a serious bargain and come in a choice of 5 colours and sizes 14 – 32.

So those are my top tips for surviving the colder weather with the assistance of some trusty denim!

Hi,

My name’s Jenny and I’m one of the Marisota girls (click here for more info about me!) , I love all things fashion (particularly shoes – and even more particularly stylish wide fitting ones). I’m here to give you a quick update on one of this season’s hottest trends. With spring and summer well on their way we need to prepare for the months of garden parties, barbeques and drinks on the patio. So these are a few of my quick tips for dressing to impress this season

These stylish spot hem pedal pushers are a perfect choice for spring; the ¾ leg is flattering whilst the spot hem is a great element of detail – a must this season. These would look particularly fabulous with this white cutwork gypsy top from Joanna Hope. It’s floaty and feminine but comfortable at the same time. The ¾ length sleeves are effortlessly flattering and perfect for if you burn easily, or to keep off the chill as the evening draws to a close.

Another fantastic option is this stylish sequin trim print skirt from Joanna Hope, wear it with one of Marisota’s simple camis (and a waist belt if you prefer) to get a simple, stylish look.

If you want to get the full on summer feeling then this maxi dress is ideal. It’s comfortable, flattering and comes in a choice of lengths so you’ll get your perfect look and fit!

Now as you know (or you will soon) shoes are my weakness, so where would my post be without some recommendations!

These Caryn Franklin gladiator wedges are some of my absolute favourites, these wedges are comfortable but still have a heel and have strap detail, plus they come in a variety of widths!

If you favour a flatter style then these Emotion sandals are perfect. They’re just strappy enough for smart occasions but are still great for regular wear, plus with their great range of sizes and widths you know you’ll be exquisitely comfortable.

Let me know what you think of my choices, or if there’s anything else you want to know. (PS. the mystery blogger last week was me!)

Bye for now

I can’t believe the chaos the snow is causing. They’ve sent Joanne home from school… and I’ve had patients cancelling on me left right and centre! So I’ve decided to spend some time with Jo and get out in the snow. I’ve got virtually no sensible clothes for the this kind of weather though. I was just thinking about putting together a nice new wardrobe for spring when this blizzard hits!

A little ensemble from the Marisota plus size fashion collection like this one would be perfect:

As it is I’ll just stick with my old jeans and coat for today… but maybe I’ll get prepared for next time the snow comes bucketing down!

Ah well – I don’t suppose it’ll matter today as the only eligible batchellor I’m likely to meet in the back garden is a snowman!

Marisota’s having a fabulous sale at the moment – you can pick up some real plus size fashion bargains!

How about this little outfit – you can buy the whole lot from as little as £37.50 + P&P.

This pretty plus size black beaded top would be so useful as you can dress it up or down and it’s from only £10.

These wide leg plus size jeans have a glitter finish making them gorgeous for going out in. They are from £17.50.

Finish your outfit with some fashionable wide fitting shoes like these black patent court shoes from only £10. Again these are great all-round shoes, perfect for day or night.

So there you have it – a complete plus size outfit including shoes for less than £40!

Are you sick of hearing about the credit crunch? Things have gone up and I do have to watch my pennies, but I wish they didn’t go on about it all the time. Well I’m going to use my Marisota blog to tell you all about plus size fashion I love and it’s great value!

It’s the time of year when you need a good pair of plus size jeans, and of course they have to fit well. Not just around the waist, but the leg length too. Have you ever tried to take a pair of jeans up? I have and I can tell you it’s no fun at all. This autumn I got short length jeans from Marisota. They had my leg length so I could wear them straight away, and they were such a good price! So even with the credit crunch I get great value clothes at Marisota, so I can still afford to treat myself, even when I’m on a budget!
