I had a lot of reservations, too, but am loving them now. I duplicated my Mia skinnies from Express today. They are just sooo comfortable, and it's nice to have something else to wear with boots than skirts </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-br-skinny-jeans-has-anyone-tried-them#post-32709 Thu, 30 Oct 2008 02:51:08 +0000 Laura 32709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ana, I know what you mean - can't believe how hooked I am on skinny jeans when just months ago I swore they were awful on me (and that I looked like a turkey drumstick from the side!). Now it is scary to think that if have done a complete 180 on skinnies, pleated pants or worse could work their way back into my wardrobe too someday </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-br-skinny-jeans-has-anyone-tried-them#post-32692 Thu, 30 Oct 2008 01:55:51 +0000 Ana 32692@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm on the look out for the COH Elson as well. I was going to get the Amber because I loved how it fit, but when Shiny said the Elsons were the same, only skinny, I made up my mind. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-br-skinny-jeans-has-anyone-tried-them#post-32684 Thu, 30 Oct 2008 01:47:14 +0000 Laura 32684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nordstrom does - in the tbd department. They are about the same as DK, $165. If I get as much wear out of them as I did out of my DKs, they'll be a good investment. It seems to me that Shiny is a big COH fan? Let me know what you think! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-br-skinny-jeans-has-anyone-tried-them#post-32681 Thu, 30 Oct 2008 01:42:01 +0000 susan 32681@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Does Nordstom sell the CoH Elson? I will try them next week if they do! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-br-skinny-jeans-has-anyone-tried-them#post-32680 Thu, 30 Oct 2008 01:40:46 +0000 Laura 32680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Susan, yes, I am an hourglass. (That's why we both love DK!) I was surprised to find out how well COH fit too, though. Of all the skinnies (Joe's Cigarette, Seven Roxanne and something by Hudson), they were by far the best on me. Too bad that DK doesn't make a true skinny (yet). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-br-skinny-jeans-has-anyone-tried-them#post-32676 Thu, 30 Oct 2008 01:38:54 +0000 Laura 32676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>After contemplating my options, I bought a pair of COH Elson jeans today - whew! - and they are true skinnies. Now I am on a clothing fast for a while So these jeans are in my back pocket, maybe late in the season, to buy as a second pair of skinnies. I asked in BR today and they didn't have them in-store. Maya, I am glad to hear that you like yours - they do look really nice. A while ago I tried a pair of straight legs on in the store and was impressed with the fit. The price is definitely easier to stomach than premium denim! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-br-skinny-jeans-has-anyone-tried-them#post-32672 Thu, 30 Oct 2008 01:30:52 +0000 susan 32672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Laura,<br /> If you try these, please give a report! I'm thinking you are an hourglass too. Am I right? So, maybe if these work for you, they'll also work for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-br-skinny-jeans-has-anyone-tried-them#post-32657 Thu, 30 Oct 2008 00:17:20 +0000 Maya 32657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Laura, I don't have those specific jeans but I have a pair of skinnies from about 2 years ago from BR. They are definitely a straight leg jean and one of my favorite jeans. Those seem straight to me too. They also have it in the straight leg category. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-br-skinny-jeans-has-anyone-tried-them#post-32562 Wed, 29 Oct 2008 14:42:56 +0000 Laura 32562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just saw these on BR:</p> <p><a href="http://www.bananarepublic.com/browse/product.do?cid=40651&#038;pid=606478" rel="nofollow">http://www.bananarepublic.com/.....pid=606478</a></p> <p>Has anyone tried them? I am curious about them - in the photo (on a model who is no doubt very slim) they don't look like a true skinny, especially in the calf. They look more straight-legged, don't they? </p>
