(Thank goodness! &nbsp;That kind of - sort of - justifies the number, doesn't it? &nbsp;:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-jeans-do-you-have/page/2#post-1478330 Wed, 22 Apr 2015 02:56:48 +0000 Jaime 1478330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I usually have about 4 I am wearing and at least a dozen others that I am considering.

I think that's a total of 12. Fewer than I thought, but more than I probably&nbsp;need. I work full time and can't wear jeans to work. I would purge the Izods&nbsp; at least&nbsp;but I plan to retire next year, so I want to wait and see about many of my casual clothes.</p> <p>ETA: I have some white jeans, too. MK brand I believe. They fit like a glove, look terrific on me IMHO, but I am scared to wear them since I might get them dirty or stained. They are really nice. I also never know what to wear with them, or it's too hot or something.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-jeans-do-you-have/page/2#post-1478310 Wed, 22 Apr 2015 02:06:07 +0000 Carla 1478310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>4. 2 straight leg, that I mostly wear rolled (they are on the short side), 1 dark wash boot cut, 1 white boyfriend. </p> <p>I also have 3 jean jackets, 1 dark wash, 1 white, and one blue and white Ikat pattern. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-jeans-do-you-have/page/2#post-1478303 Wed, 22 Apr 2015 01:55:57 +0000 frannieb 1478303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rambling Ann has me thinking I should think about what I really want in a jeans capsule - doesn't it always come back to the capsule.</p> <p>I can wear jeans in the summer because I can't wear shorts to work and am in air conditioning. With the right top jeans on bottom don't bother me.</p> <p>I love all the lists of jeans that people have and what combinations. Has me thinking.&nbsp;</p> <p>Funny how so many say now that we are going into summer that they won't be wearing jeans and I'm gearing up to have them be part of my summer capsule. And yes before YLF I had a pair of white summer capri's I wore into the ground - kinda forgot the workhorse they were and remembered because of YLF - So a white pair is part to the new jeans capsule. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-jeans-do-you-have/page/2#post-1478284 Wed, 22 Apr 2015 00:19:25 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1478284@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have at least 20 (wide color/shape variety) but since we are going into summer, my mostly white jeans wearing season, I think I'm going to take a few not much worn to consignment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-jeans-do-you-have/page/2#post-1478208 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 21:19:45 +0000 Mipfrog 1478208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My jeans cost between $15-60AUD. It's hard for me to find comfy ones for my hourglass short waisted shape- they tend to hurt when sitting down or constantly need hiking up- so I've been looking for ages to find grey jeans that will work. Plus it's impossible to find bootcut or straight grey or coloured jeans in my pricepoint right now as skinnies has taken over the world!</p> <p> -1 thick black skinnies<br /> -1 thin stretch black skinnies, I've worn them so much they have faded and frayed so I use them as 'distressed' skinnies now!<br /> -3 blue bootcuts...in 3 different sizes! But one has a whiskerred pattern at the top f the legs that I don't like<br /> -1 blue straight leg</p> <p>I much prefer pants and can't wear jeans to work except Fridays. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-jeans-do-you-have/page/2#post-1478164 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 19:36:14 +0000 Justina 1478164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this thread! &nbsp;At one point I had an embarrassing amount of denim - like seriously close to 20 pairs. &nbsp;However, I've tried to really narrow down my closet because I find for me that I get too overwhelmed when I have too many options and there are some things that I hardly ever wear. &nbsp;Anyway, sorry for rambling haha. &nbsp;Here are my answers:</p> <p>-I have one pair of dark skinny ankle-length denim<br />-One pair of dark wash flares (yes, still, even though they rarely make an appearance anymore)<br />-Three pairs of skinny colored denim (burgundy, pink, and bright blue)<br />-One pair of light wash boyfriend jeans with tears in them.<br />-One pair of black skinny jeans.</p> <p>So that's seven pairs. &nbsp;I also have a few other pants that aren't denim (like more stretchy material) and I wear a ton of tights. &nbsp;Well, that's me </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-jeans-do-you-have/page/2#post-1478146 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 18:39:41 +0000 Linda 1478146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I guess I'm at the low end of the spectrum! Four pairs total.</p> <p>White, 2:&nbsp; 1 pair of straight leg and one boyfriend <br />Blue,2: 1 pair of skinny jeans. 1 pair of ankle crop in indigo.&nbsp; I just gave away my BF jeans as I lost 10 pounds and they were swimming on me.<br />I had a pair of black straight-leg jeans but also gave them away as they were too large.&nbsp; </p> <p>I actually love jeans, but don't often wear them to work so they are reserved for weekends and vacations.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-jeans-do-you-have/page/2#post-1478116 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 16:45:33 +0000 unfrumped 1478116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think maybe 5? I am not nearly as much a jeans person as most; I will usually wear some other casual pant at home, but finally recognized jeans as very useful for smart casual.<br />I probably could do with only 3 and my goal is to focus and replace, not expand.&nbsp; The 2 most useful would be some kind of classic darkwash, straight or mini-boot, and a more soft, broken-in look, currently a slim BF style, that is as comfortable as some other lounge pants options.&nbsp; For expansion, could use the dark wash in different styles according to, not just &nbsp;the trend of the day, but footwear--bootcut for....boots and straight for loafers and oxfords.&nbsp;Then I would keep any that still&nbsp;&nbsp;fit well and re-evaluate from time to time.&nbsp; In general I find that if I'm not wearing one it's because somehow the fit has become off, or&nbsp;looks to tight or have to wear certain tops, so the most useful is the most versatile grab &amp; go.&nbsp;Then I have one white, and I have to say I could live without it, but am glad I have it and a goal would be, just one white, don't need a white jean capsule. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-jeans-do-you-have/page/2#post-1478063 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 14:35:53 +0000 Carole 1478063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Too many to count:) I wear jeans most everyday, I'd guess around 20 or so..... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-jeans-do-you-have/page/2#post-1478050 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 13:56:06 +0000 Aziraphale 1478050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can think of 13 off the top of my head, but I might be forgetting a few.

(Basically I counted everything that I would *wear* as jeans.) there is one exact duplicate in there - bought the second pair of long discontinued bootcuts when I found a new one in my size on eBay, but it turns out they wear like iron so the first pair (prob 10 yrs old by now) hasn't kicked it yet. </p> <p>I honestly thought I had more! I wear jeans a lot as my work is pretty casual. I'm hoping to add one or two more (both grey which I don't currently have since my charcoal jeggings died this winter) soon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-jeans-do-you-have/page/2#post-1478038 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 13:31:58 +0000 Anonymous 1478038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha, Frannie, I did the same thing going from no jeans to probably about 15 pair right now. Finding that jeans have some stretch and looked better than trousers on my straight hips plus a casual life style caused the numbers to explode. They are all different colors and vary a bit in shape or length. However, I envy you being able to wear jeans in summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-jeans-do-you-have/page/2#post-1478037 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 13:31:01 +0000 jackiec 1478037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>At last count last summer I was at 25.
