As for BFs, as the others have said there are so many ways to do them. I have KUT BFs in blue and white and I actually size down because I can't stand to have a baggy butt. But they are still looser than skinnies (a lot) and SO comfy! My DD has the "skinny BFs" and to my eye they look like skinnies only with a tiny bit more room all over, which makes them look casual and chic, especially rolled. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/forever-wondering-if-i-can-do-skinny-jeans#post-1266183 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 05:36:31 +0000 deb 1266183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in all of these jeans.

I do prefer the one in #2 though, but nonetheless you carry off all 3 styles wonderfully! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/forever-wondering-if-i-can-do-skinny-jeans#post-1266129 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 03:18:05 +0000 Beth Ann 1266129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Greetings, AE!&nbsp; Welcome to the forum.&nbsp; </p> <p>You look terrific!&nbsp; I have a slight preference for #2, but all the cuts look good.&nbsp; I agree that you should at least try BF jeans, since denim is so central in your style.&nbsp; Remember, there are lots of variations.&nbsp; I have a pair that are quite baggy, and I love them.&nbsp; I think they are flattering enough when paired with the right tops and they are so uber-comfy.&nbsp; I'm looking for a pair of what we call "skinny boyfriends."&nbsp; These will be in a darker wash, with a wider cuff. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/forever-wondering-if-i-can-do-skinny-jeans#post-1266114 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 02:51:41 +0000 Diana 1266114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These look great on you! I'm shaped a lot like you and I love both my skinnies and my BFs so definitely give the BFs a try too. </p> <p>And welcome! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/forever-wondering-if-i-can-do-skinny-jeans#post-1266109 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 02:49:13 +0000 danskogirl 1266109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great.

Thanks for the great tips! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/forever-wondering-if-i-can-do-skinny-jeans#post-1266025 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 01:03:29 +0000 Angie 1266025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>More thumbs up from me. You look fabulous in these skinnies.&nbsp;</p> <p>I was with pear shaped clients yesterday. BF jeans are BRILLIANT on pear shapes. Truly. Wear a belt and faux tuck.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/forever-wondering-if-i-can-do-skinny-jeans#post-1266021 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 01:00:49 +0000 abc 1266021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It takes a while to warm up to new silhouettes and seeing them on ourselves. For me first it was skinny jeans (conquered a few years ago) and most recently boyfriend jeans (a few months). Fwiw I'm a pear/hourglass firmly in the 12-14 size range. Just go easy on yourself and see what grows on you. Enjoy the site. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/forever-wondering-if-i-can-do-skinny-jeans#post-1266015 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 00:53:20 +0000 ameelizabeth 1266015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>thanks for the votes of confidence, I will definitely feel better about wearing them out of the house! <br />Joy, it's funny you mentioned the boyfriend jeans, because I was just reading a post about them in the forums, and was thinking to myself, "wow, those would really look bad on me!" I just feel like there would be all this bulk without any definition...of anything, no? I'm getting more comfortable with my pear-shape, but I have this weird thing where I feel like being larger on the bottom makes my head look too small.&nbsp; I know, this is totally neurotic and crazy sounding!&nbsp; It's just one of those things, I guess.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/forever-wondering-if-i-can-do-skinny-jeans#post-1266011 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 00:40:49 +0000 Anonymous 1266011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in all these but have you tried the looser boyfriend style that is popular right now? ( or size up in the skinnies so that they are a bit baggy. You will probably need a belt). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/forever-wondering-if-i-can-do-skinny-jeans#post-1266003 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 00:34:03 +0000 Anonymous 1266003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in these skinnies. Please wear them in utter confidence! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/forever-wondering-if-i-can-do-skinny-jeans#post-1265985 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 00:07:37 +0000 Suz 1265985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look terrific in every one of these silhouettes. I wouldn't worry about that at all. Wear and enjoy!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/forever-wondering-if-i-can-do-skinny-jeans#post-1265962 Sat, 31 May 2014 23:34:47 +0000 ameelizabeth 1265962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello! I'm newish to the website/app, and I've enjoyed browsing around. I love the idea of being able to anonymously solicit fashion feedback, so I thought I'd go ahead and ask for some honest opinions. I added a few pairs of skinny jeans to my wardrobe over the last year, but I am always going back and forth between "I think these are kind of hot" to "I look ridiculous and should never leave the house in these." Pic 1 are "actual" skinny jeans, pic 2 are jeans that are labeled straight leg. Added pic 3 with the 'ol bootcuts I'm used to wearing.</p> <p>I'm 33, would call myself pear shaped, fluctuate between pants size 8 and 12, and am 5'6". I get more hourglassy when I put on a few pounds. I am a quite casual, but do enjoy dressing myself to look/feel good (although I usually feel "too fancy" when I make an effort beyond jeans and sandals/sneakers). </p> <p>Sorry for the long post, but thought I'd just include a little intro too. Thank you for any honest feedback! I like the idea of embracing and showing my curves, but don't want to look ridiculous! </p>
