Ignore the fit of the tee, I don't own a white t-shirt (!) so I had to borrow one from my husband's closet.<br />I think it looks a lot&nbsp;better!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-jeans-help--do-these-qualify#post-1331895 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 18:09:09 +0000 Aziraphale 1331895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sure, it counts. They look cute.&nbsp;That's how I wear my BF jeans. Some of them, anyway! I call them "slim boyfriends" or "slouchy skinnies". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-jeans-help--do-these-qualify#post-1331891 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 18:05:39 +0000 CocoLion 1331891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For the above outfit with blazer, I'd go back to your white sneakers and wear a white tee to pick up the color of the footwear.</p> <p>With the booties, I crave seeing a peek of skin. &nbsp;Which may mean you need to go with a shorter vamp boot. &nbsp;My higher ankle boots don't work as well with boyfriends as they do with skinnies for some reason. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-jeans-help--do-these-qualify#post-1331890 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 18:03:48 +0000 N-Marie 1331890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>amiable</b>- thanks!<br /><b><br />Kristen-SF</b>- many thanks for the great list of suggestions! &nbsp;I am indeed only 5'1 (5'2 if I round up ;)).

I think they will work well with a fluid fit top. </p> <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/create/extension/"></a><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/create/extension/"></a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-jeans-help--do-these-qualify#post-1331884 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 17:55:24 +0000 Kristin SF 1331884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look great! I think we're a similar height....5'2"ish? I've found that - as amiable says - slim boyfriends or relaxed skinnies work best for petites. Also, straight legs are great for creating the boyfriend look without overwhelming petites.</p> <p>Some styles that work well:<br />AG Nikki (relaxed skinny - similar to what you are wearing in the pics)</p> <p>Citizens Emerson (slim fit boyfriend)<br /><a href="http://www.citizensofhumanity.com/product/women/1503d-372-pollock" rel="nofollow">http://www.citizensofhumanity......72-pollock</a></p> <p>This is one of my faves - it's basically a straight leg, and it looks great cuffed, and the inseam is perfect for petites:<br />AG Tomboy Crop<br /><a href="http://www.agjeans.com/the-tomboy-crop-10-years-santa-ana/d/8806" rel="nofollow">http://www.agjeans.com/the-tom.....ana/d/8806</a><br />or<br /><a href="http://www.agjeans.com/the-tomboy-crop-6-years-compass/d/8852" rel="nofollow">http://www.agjeans.com/the-tom.....ass/d/8852</a></p> <p>Good luck! </p> <p>ETA: <br />You might have to size down with true BF jeans, depending on level of bagginess you want or do not want.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-jeans-help--do-these-qualify#post-1331873 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 17:42:52 +0000 amiable 1331873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they qualify as "slim boyfriends" and look terrific! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-jeans-help--do-these-qualify#post-1331851 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 17:10:46 +0000 Emily 1331851@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a pair with a similar fit that I refer to as "boyfriend-ish". &nbsp;I wore them into fall last year with a long-sleeved blouse, cardigan and oxfords:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-one-last-fling">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....last-fling</a></p> <p>I think a jacket + scarf would make your outfit perfectly fall appropriate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boyfriend-jeans-help--do-these-qualify#post-1331847 Fri, 15 Aug 2014 17:00:38 +0000 N-Marie 1331847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll admit that I sat out the boyfriend jean trend while pregnant and post-partum because I felt schlumpy enough without adding extra bagginess. So I'm a total novice to the boyfriend jean look and I have no idea what I'm doing.&nbsp;But it seems like an ideal MOTG formula so I'm giving it a go. &nbsp;Any advice or suggestions would be much appreciated!</p> <p>I've tried buying several pair online and they all looked ridiculous on me (massively baggy, ballooning at the hip)&nbsp;and I sent them all back. Maybe it's because I'm an IT? &nbsp;<br />I pulled out these stretched out old&nbsp;skinnies that I already owned&nbsp;and rolled them up. They still seem a bit tight. But are they baggy enough to work for experimenting with the "boyfriend jean" look? </p> <p>And finally,&nbsp;how do you transition this look to fall?</p>
