Millie Mackintosh's ‘comfiest jeans ever’ hail from Kate Middleton’s go-to denim brand

Trying to find a pair of jeans that are comfortable, well-fitting and look great can be one of the biggest struggles when it comes to shopping. After countless hours spent sweating in changing rooms trying to find a pair that make you feel great, it’s no surprise many of us find shopping for denim one of our least favourite jobs.

However Millie Mackintosh might have cracked the code, as she posed in a pair of & Other Stories’ High-Waist Flared Jeans on Instagram last week. She praised them as “The comfiest jeans ever”, and it seems the brand might be a winner when it comes to denim as they’re also the go-to for Kate Middleton.

Princess Kate is a known fan of & Other Stories’ Slim Jeans (formerly known as the Favourite Jeans), which are notoriously tricky to get your hands on. The closest style available on the website right now is the Cropped Slim Leg Jeans (£77) which have a similar slim fit that The Princess of Wales favours.

Millie’s pair, thankfully, are much easier to get your hands on. Her High-Waist Flared Jeans are currently available directly from the & Other Stories website, over at ASOS, and at H&M, where they’re priced at £87.

The jeans have a classic 70s-inspired fit, with a high waist and flared bootcut leg, and the addition of two patch pockets on the front seals the deal on the retro design. The high waist keeps them comfortable and helps elongate your legs, and the wider legs makes them perfect for wearing with anything from sandals to boots, so you can wear them in every season.

They’re also made with plenty of stretch, which is what makes them so comfortable that Millie can’t stop raving about them. You can pick them up in dark blue, as well as a light ecru colour, which is currently on sale at ASOS down from £87 to £69, and several other colours ways if you shop them at H&M.

Other brands have also launched their own version of the 70s-style jeans, with White Stuff’s Frankie Flare Jean now on sale for £52, down from £65 and available in sizes six to 24. Marks & Spencer also has the ultra-affordable Patch Pocket Flare High Waisted Jeans for £39.50, with a choice of three different colours and sizes six to 24.

For a slimmer fit that keeps the same shape and style, New Look’s Blue Patch Pocket Flared Denim Jeans are £39.99 and have a tighter fit around the hips and thighs, before flaring out from the knee. They come in sizes six to 18, with all sizes currently still in stock.
