Skinny jeans wearers? WDYT of them?

I think they are gaddamn uncomfortable! I'm wearing a pair today and they are so tight. It's uncomfortable to me to have a pair of stiff pants like jeans clinging to my calves - I'm squirming. But they look so cute with flats and a long top.

Granted, these jeans are just too tight...I think I need to hop on the bandwagon...

Re: Skinny jeans wearers? WDYT of them?

  • I think you can only get away with them if you have a very slim frame (which from your pics Amie you do!!).  Even if I lost every extra pound I could find, I still couldn't get away with them because these Italian hips can't be erased.  :)  Plus I like boot-leg jeans anyway and they have a lot more room at the bottom.

  • Nope, nope. I have "child bearing hips/thighs" so they are not for me. More power to those who can wear them though!
  • skinny jeans do look very cute on slim girls - Amie, I'm sure that you pull them off very well!

    Just the thought of myself in skinny jeans makes me gag/laugh at the same time. 

  • I could never wear them. I'm too curvy. I'm sure you look great in them Amie. :)

  • I'm sure you look fab in them.

    For myself, they remind me of 6th grade, which was not a pleasant time for me since I had the same haircut as my mom, whether I had cool jeans or not.

    LOL Duff. All I need are some scrunch-socks, hi-tops, and a killer scrunchie for my high-ponytail and I could go right back to elementary school...

  • I love the look of skinny jeans with flats and a long top!  I wish I could pull it off but I am a little too chubby.  I am jealous of those who can though!
  • yeah not something I could pull off pg or not...

    but power to you!

     

  • God bless you for being able to wear them. And, I bet you look fab! I on the other hand have no business in skinny anything. No thanks to genetics - and my appetite - it just won't ever happen. However, I not-so-secretly wish I could pull off that look.

  • btw, thank you all for your super-sweet comments. I swear I wasn't compliment-fishing and I'm humbled! Embarrassed
  • I wish I had the option to wear them but I'm "bootylicious"( lol ) I would look very silly in them. Embarrassed
  • I'm not a fan of them on anyone.  It's a flash back to the 80's and I'd rather not go there!
  • I LOVE THEM!  Always have and was thrilled to finally fit back in them after being pg.  I also think having long legs is one of the major keys though.
