I've been wearing them for years, I'm very curvy and a borderline midget, seriously I'm 4'11". Its just a trend that will be gone by next year, now if we all want to focus on bad fashion here I suggest we all stop the return of the bubble skirt, now THAT is a piece of clothing that should never see the light of day.

A-friggin-men!!!!!!!


Thank goodness someone else thinks they are REDONKULOUS.

I love them, but im really tiny with so called " stick legs"
I dont think they look good on women with really curvy hips, or big feet. And I have shape and look good in them.

So stick legs are not "real" legs? Ouchie

I have stick legs

As long as clothing compaines don't start to limit their production of flare and boot cut jeans in favor of skinny ones, it's all good!

I agree. I love my Tsubi's and J Brands...the ones with fading or the "emo" look with them is over done. I like the way Nicole wears them.

If you have "knock knees" they look really bad. I prefer just the straight boot cut style the look better on my legs.

 

[Sabrunka]

I adore them. My legs are already super long, but they make my legs look longer. I am 5'11 or so, so I'm pretty tall for a girl, and I'm 118 pounds, so they suit me well. They look nice with a nice low cut pair of boots or sneakers.

 

[Pink_minx]

I like them..I dont own one yet but it looks good on some people, especially those with long legs thats for sure. I think as long as you put it on right with the right type of shoes and a cute top it would look nice.

OMG I agree! I have the sliiiiiightest knock knee, and skinny jeans make me look like both my legs are broken!
Though I do love this trend, it's not for me

 

[sarzio]

I have a pair of almost skinny jeans... Like they aren't super skinny but have a slight taper at the bottom so they look good with flats and such... However only CERTAIN frames can pull them off...

 

[lovalotz]

Eww
Hate, hate them!
Why buy something that will emphasize your thighs??
Since when was showing off the biggest part of your leg flattering??
Someone please tell me

 

[vivaciousv1114]

i only wear them when i'm wearing boots over them. otherwise they just look really stupid on me.

 

[aeni]

can't wear them. i got saddle bags and hips so only flares can even them out.

I live in MD, too, and I think I bought my first pair of skinny jeans in September/October last year, and now EVERYONE has them.
They don't look good on everyone, but I do love them, especially with heels!
The upper leg parts fit me better than most jeans (I have oddly shaped upper legs), and I like them with a little stretch.
I have the Joe's Cigarette leg, which wear long (and a little loose) on me and look great with heels; I have 2 pair of People's Liberation jeans in Bella, which are very slightly pegged, they look best with sandals or flats; I have a pair of Abercrombie Kids skinny jeans that are really comfy and strechy and look good with any shoe; I have a pair of Hollister Laguna skinny jeans in a lighter wash to wear with my pointy toe flats--I got these in a shorter length.

I think they all look pretty decent on me, but then again, I could be wrong.

I'm kind of little--not especially skinny or toned, just little. I'm 20, and about 5'4" and 110 lbs. with teeny tiny feet and no boobs and kind of wide hips for my size. But skinny jeans make my legs look miles long and make my butt look good (I have a no-butt). I think the jeans look ok on me because I kind of look like a pre-pubescent 13-year old and I'm into the big top-skinny bottoms thing.

Skinny jeans look best on almost anyone if you are going to wear a tunic/shirt dress/long shirt, especially since leggings are even less forgiving than the skinny jeans.

I guess I'd have to say skinny jeans are my fave type, but I still love my Old Navy boot cuts that I've had forever.
But...to each her own!

 

[Simply Elegant]

I love them but only if they're dark wash and not really tight on the leg at the bottom. I like for them to be really plain.

 

[Beauty Mark]

Skinny jeans if you're skinny enough and have good legs. Otherwise, they look bad. I know I'm not thin enough to pull them off.
