Honestly, If I Didn’t Know Any Better, I’d Say These £39 Marks and Spencer Jeans Were Designer

If you've spent anytime around me at all then you'll know that I'm obsessed with jeans. Nine times out ten, if I'm leaving the house, I'm wearing a pair. Having accumulated a few styles that I truly love, I still remain on the lookout for the next excellent option to add to the collection that I love so dearly.

As a bit of a jeans obsessive it takes something really special to wow me and, as such, I was incredibly surprised to stumble across my new favourite pair by accident when browsing through Marks & Spencer. Impressed by the dramatic silhouette and supple finish of the fabric, Marks & Spencer's horseshoe jeans (£39) jumped out at me immediately.

Quickly set on trying them on, I found that these jeans sat just above my hip bones, comfortable grazing my legs before tapering out into a voluminous horseshoe silhouette. At sub £40 I was really impressed by the quality of the soft denim. Available in both blue and black, these jeans were structural, soft and supremely comfortable and rivalled some of the designers styles in my collection.

A fresh silhouette for the new season, the horseshoe denim trend has been growing in popularity over the past few months, egged on by the popularity of Alaïa's barrel-leg designs. The trend offers a new denim shape that fashion people have welcomed into their wardrobes after so many seasons of styling straight-leg jeans and baggy pairs.

Whilst I styled mine with red ballet flats, these elegant jeans would also look great with a sleek kitten heel or a lug sole boot. Eager to spread the word about to my new favourite piece of denim, read on the discover the Marks & Spencer's Horseshoe Jeans here, and shop our edit of the other best horseshoe jeans below.
