I think I will return the bootcut and feel like I've now learned a bit about jean fitting, hehe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boot-cut-or-straight-leg#post-76720 Sat, 04 Jul 2009 21:14:07 +0000 Oneirix 76720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Winnie!</p> <p>1. Straight-leg for sure. The wash in the first one is cute, but the cut is not as flattering. It bags too much at the knees. If you could find a bootcut that was tighter are your knees it would be fabulous, but I think those ones hide your nice legs too much. </p> <p>2. Angie is the authority on this, and I agree with both her and CHewyspaghetti. You seem hourglassy leaning towards rectangle. Nice!</p> <p>Welcome to YLF! ^_^ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boot-cut-or-straight-leg#post-76681 Sat, 04 Jul 2009 16:43:47 +0000 Angie 76681@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Khris, is right! We have very similar body types. Slap bang in the middle of an hourglass and a rectangle. Not very curvy, but not curveless either. </p> <p>Thanks for the pics, Winnie. The straight legged jeans are KILLER. And for that reason, you should get them :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boot-cut-or-straight-leg#post-76613 Fri, 03 Jul 2009 20:30:24 +0000 chewyspaghetti 76613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Winnie- you scored a sweet deal on jeans! They both look nice on you, but the straight leg in my favorite. I think you're probably an hourglass with rectangle tendencies like Angie. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boot-cut-or-straight-leg#post-76606 Fri, 03 Jul 2009 18:24:40 +0000 Winnie 76606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>I've never really given much thought into jeans, but through the blog and the discussions in the forums this wardrobe staple is quite a science...</p> <p>I picked up two pairs of jeans through GAP's $20 (very sweet!) sale last week --</p> <p>Lighter wash, boot cut: <a href="http://whatsinseason.wordpress.com/files/2009/07/bootcut1.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://whatsinseason.wordpress.....otcut1.jpg</a></p> <p>Dark wash, straight leg:<br /> <a href="http://whatsinseason.wordpress.com/files/2009/07/straight-leg.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://whatsinseason.wordpress.....ht-leg.jpg</a></p> <p>Here are the questions:</p> <p>1. Should I keep either of them, and why/why not?<br /> 2. While we're here... what is my body type? :o)</p> <p>Thank you so much! </p>
