If you're one of the people that can never find jeans to fit because they're always gaping at the back of the waistband, boy do we have a find for you: an elastic belt that costs less than a tenner but will legit be one of the most useful things in your wardrobe.

I first discovered the belt when a fellow Cosmo staffer wore it to work, and myself and the team literally crowded around to get a closer look. As someone who has never managed to find perfect-fitting jeans, this is something of a game-changer - so I ordered one immediately. Obvs.

It actually looks really cool, too.

My colleague was wearing it with bleach denim jeans and a t-shirt tucked in, and at first glance the belt just looks like a part of the denim design, pretty much like something you'd buy in Topshop or H&M.

My co-worker was singing the belt's praises, and she isn't the only one; there's over 200 5-star reviews on Amazon.

"No more issues, the belt is simple and the person/people who designed it are definitely on to a winner!" one shopper wrote. "I threaded it through my jeans and adjusted it whilst wearing. You don't have to undo it when going to the loo, simply undo your jeans/trousers etc. as normal."

Another praised the belt for its ease of use, writing: "I have arthritis in my thumb joints and struggle with buttons and zips etc... it makes wearing jeans one bit easier."

Honestly, what a find.

Go forth and shop, and may you never have to turn down a pair of gape-y jeans again.
