Designer clothes - Worth it or not?...

...Not worth it!!
The eagerly-awaited  Lee Cooper Jeans arrived a few days ago - They don't fit!
The belt fits great that came with the jeans, I can get the jeans on but I don't like the cut.
They hang too low at the back and it makes them feel very uncomfortable, frankly, If I wore them out anywhere I would spend every 5 minutes pulling them up at the back. The fitting is very poor for a pair of designer jeans - I would not recommend Lee Cooper fitted jeans to anyone with a bigger-than-average bottom!
It's so disappointing because I have absolutely fallen in love with the style of them - the are a combination of Vintage-modern - and I absolutely adore that classique style that seems to be really in vogue this year!
Anyway when stop sounding like a fashion magazine critic I take them back, I will ask if they have anything similar, I don't want to go bigger because I already bought the bigger size (Remember, I am an Inbetweenie), If not, I will just swap them for something else.

It's really strange, the best pair of Jeans I ever bought were skinny jeans from the TU range at Sainsbury's in the sale at half price - just £8 and I wish I had bought half a dozen pairs now because I absolutely love them and they are so comfortable.
Designer doesn't always mean better (In my experience, it never has - well, except for the Joe Browns range which gets me drooling heart racing, their stuff is uniquely beautiful!) - they are incredibly over rated and poorly fitted.
I think I will stick with TU at Sainsbury's for my Jeans and Leggings - I have never had any problems with their clothes at all, in fact quite often I have to buy a smaller size, which really makes me smile - then I see the price and I smile even more - they are incredible for value and quality.

Lee Cooper Jeans - See the Vintage look - and the belt just finishes the Vintage look? 
You can see they don't fit well - and don't look right here either.

I'd like a Multi-Use Coat (Something like the Tresspass/Regatta 3 in 1 type) - So I will probably swap it out for one of those if they have them in stock and/or in my size, if not, I will just see what they have in store.
