Thanks for the kind words.
I know the jeans are getting too loose now but I'm trying to keep them as long as possible as I've still got at least 3 sizes to go. I'm going to wash this pair and another in hot water next time and dryer on high to try and shrink them a bit.

We're going to the States in 2 weeks to visit friends for the weekend, so I want to do some shopping while I'm there - so many better deals!!! Otherwise, I really have to find a good consignment store.
