Jeans to suit your genes!
0 Comments
We held a plus size fashion Twitter chat a little back, and if we didn’t know it already, it definitely confirmed that people find jeans the hardest item of clothing to shop for.
A less-than perfect fit simply won’t do when it comes to jeans, it’s got to be just right! Yet people come in all different shapes and sizes (it really is a matter of genes!) making finding that perfect fit an often frustrating experience.
So at Simply Be, as well as offering jeans in sizes 14-32 and a huge choice of lengths and colours, we’ve developed some unique lines designed to tackle specific fitting issues. We want every woman to be able to find their perfect pair of jeans!
Fit Your Calf Jeans
Our boots in a choice of wider calf fittings are very popular, so it made perfect sense to offer jeans that are a little more generous in the calf for ladies who are fuller in that part of the leg. No need to restrict yourself to bootcut or wide leg styles any more – go for a slim leg style that shows off your shapely pins to perfection!
Available in 2 colours and 3 lengths.
Fit Your Thigh Jeans
Likewise, many people find it hard to get jeans to fit well at their upper leg – be it because they find standard jeans too tight, or too baggy at the thigh. Enter our Fit Your Thigh Jeans! They’re available in slim fit, regular fit or fuller fit to get a flawless fit for your figure.
Available in 2 colours and 2 lengths.
Wow Jeans
Many ladies wish their jeans would do more than just fit though – they’d like a little extra help in certain areas. Our range of Wow jeans has something to suit everyone.
Our Wow Thigh Slimmer Jeans have cleverly curved seams and shading to make your legs looks leaner.
Our Wow Tummy Tamer Jeans have a special panel to gently hold in your tummy a touch.
And our Classic Wow Jeans have a host of special features include a non-stretch front panel to flatten your tummy, adjustable hidden elastic to pull in your back waistband and specially shaped back pockets, yoke and darts to create a perkier looking bottom.
What’s more, our classic Wow jeans are now only £20!
Wendy and Candice love our Wow jeans too:

Beat the January Blues – with Joe Browns!
0 Comments
Our Joe Browns range is one of our best-loved collections at Simply Be. All those bright colours, gorgeous prints and quirky shapes – there really is nothing else quite like it.
We think it’s the perfect antidote to the January blues – wearing something bright and beautiful really is a mood-booster. Try it!
Yellow is a warm colour – like a ray of sunshine! There’s no cheerier shade so this wrap tunic is sure to give you a sunny disposition, even on the greyest January morning.
Red is the colour of passion and excitement! It’s the colour of confidence, shouting ‘look at me!’ With skinny jeans and a shrug this Joe Browns tunic can be adapted to lift your spirits all year round – so why wait for summer?
Blue is the colour of serenity and calm – just the thing if you’re battling back to work stress! This crinkle dress is gorgeous with tights and boots now then bare legs and sandals when the weather hots up.
And if those sumptuous shades don’t boost your mood, we’re sure this little fella will. Twit twoo!

Look out next February for some of these gorgeous pieces! The denim jumpsuit and the sheer embellished jacket were a big hit.
