We all tend to bloat throughout the day, which can make wearing your favourite jeans a struggle.

But body positive influencer, Lottie Drynan, from the UK, has revealed the simple hack that will make even the least comfiest jeans fit comfortably.

In an she told fans about the quick trick, writing: "The Beyoncé of bloated-girl tutorials: how to make your favourite jeans (or skirt or shorts!) elasticated so they’re super comfy even when your body changes and bloats."

In the video she explained how, saying to buy your jeans in a size up and to get a piece of elastic and measure it a few inches longer than your actual waist measurement.

"Then you want to cut a slit in either side of your jeans, going through the first inside layer only.

"Next take a hair grip and slide it onto the elastic as we're going to use this as our needle," Lottie adds.

Then slide it through the first slit of the jeans and thread it through, Lottie says if you come across a label in the way simply cut it out and keep going until you get to the other slit.

Finally, once that's done simply put your jeans on and pull the elastic tight enough so that there is still room to breath when you bloat.
