I have big hips and thighs and even skinnies 2 sizes up from my regular size are still tight in those areas (while being huge in the waist). But if you have slimmer thighs it would probably work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversized-skinnies-as-boyfriend-jeans#post-690039 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 14:13:23 +0000 Transcona Shannon 690039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This can definitely work - I think there are a few members who have bought the J Crew matchstick jeans and sized up for a boyfriend look.</p> <p>Welcome and congrats on the weight loss! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversized-skinnies-as-boyfriend-jeans#post-690037 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 14:12:00 +0000 july3feb2 690037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for all the replys. Rae your outfit looks wonderful...very similar to what I have been thinking. I will figure out a way to take and post pics soon. I'm actually looking forward to trying the oversized skinny jean look...I figure if all the hipster boys are wearing skinny jeans than a baggy pair of skinnies could actually be my boyfriend's jeans (although not sure how my non-hipster DH would feel about that lol). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversized-skinnies-as-boyfriend-jeans#post-690011 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 13:14:24 +0000 Suz 690011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I definitely think this could work.

Personally I am thinking of doing the same so I like your thinking:). Try them and let us have a look:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversized-skinnies-as-boyfriend-jeans#post-689812 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 03:52:59 +0000 rae 689812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have done this and like the effect a lot. Gives a nice roomy look without the exaggerated crotch. Here's how mine look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversized-skinnies-as-boyfriend-jeans#post-689808 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 03:48:10 +0000 goldenpig 689808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome to YLF july3feb2! Congrats on the weight loss! That sounds like a great plan for your repurposing your too-big skinnies into boyfriend jeans--very creative! Feel free to post a pic if you want to! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversized-skinnies-as-boyfriend-jeans#post-689792 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 03:31:53 +0000 july3feb2 689792@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi everybody! I've been following this site for a few months and really love the "vibe" here so hoping to get some feedback for this question:<br /> I've recently lost weight (30#) and have some oversized skinny jeans that I was going to give away but tried them on and actually think they look kind of cute but is this a no-no? </p> <p>They are baggy in the bum and must be worn with a belt around hips or they will fall off but they are pretty tapered past the knee and have stretch in them unlike so many of the true bf jeans I've seen on here. I read Angie's post re using oversized straight leg jeans but no mention of skinnies...so what does the ylf community say? </p>
