Angie gave lots of examples of both in these posts. <a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/2018/10/25/five-trendy-jeans-silhouettes/"><a href="https://youlookfab.com/2018/10/25/five-trendy-jeans-silhouettes/" rel="nofollow">https://youlookfab.com/2018/10.....lhouettes/</a><br /></a> <a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/2019/09/11/fall-winter-2019-jeans/"><a href="https://youlookfab.com/2019/09/11/fall-winter-2019-jeans/" rel="nofollow">https://youlookfab.com/2019/09.....019-jeans/</a></p> <p></a></div><div>I hope she'll do a "how to wear"/discussion of body shapes with each soon, or something for straight/wide legs like she just did with midis.<br /></div><div><br /></div><div>SF, please post wiws of the new (smaller sized) jeans once you've styled them. I've always thought bootcuts were most flattering, but straight-legs are slowly working on me; your post might be the final blow that gets past the sticking point. The second pic looked great!<br /></div></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062461 Fri, 20 Sep 2019 08:47:36 +0000 Style Fan 2062461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>DonnaF, I am amazed at the power of pictures.&nbsp; I read a blog post somewhere about the difference between looking in the mirror and pictures.&nbsp; It is so true.&nbsp; At least for me. &nbsp;<br />Your new jeans are excellent! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062451 Fri, 20 Sep 2019 05:03:42 +0000 DonnaF 2062451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Style Fan, the cost for alterations of my jeans above is going to cost more than I paid for the jeans! At least I will get it back in Nordstrom Notes and I got the jeans for 80% off. I should have taken pictures of both sizes before I returned the smaller one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062256 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 12:00:55 +0000 Style Fan 2062256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jess, thanks for your feedback.&nbsp; I like the jeans you posted.&nbsp; They look more like flares to me (tighter on the thighs) than wide legs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062219 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 06:33:12 +0000 Style Fan 2062219@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great!&nbsp; I will be keeping the 28s as long as they don't stretch too much. &nbsp;</p> <p>Smittie, I just bought a rib knit sweater for fall.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>I like those jeans Donna! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062194 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 02:42:59 +0000 DonnaF 2062194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, the smaller size! I'm going in tomorrow to have the jeans below taken in at the waist. I've bought Topshop jeans too small before, so maybe I made a mistake on these, but I want them loose enough to tuck in a sweater and not squish my hips. Maybe I returned the smaller size prematurely? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062189 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 02:15:20 +0000 Angie 2062189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YES. Those navy sneaks are very suitable! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062188 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 02:14:01 +0000 smittie 2062188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooohh! These look fabulous in the smaller size. I think you should wear them with a rib knit top (a bit form fitting). </p> <p>I think for the ultimate in trendiness you need white sneakers, but the blue ones are very nice too. I think they’re chunky enough to do the trick. </p> <p>Ps: your wall colour is very nice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062186 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 02:11:15 +0000 Anonymous 2062186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for the 28's as long as they are comfortable. &nbsp;And I like the idea of your navy sneakers with them ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062168 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 01:21:33 +0000 Style Fan 2062168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Angie!&nbsp; I was thinking of these sneakers.&nbsp; Blue with white soles. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062162 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 01:17:02 +0000 Bonnie 2062162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that the 28 size is perfect.

You need chunky white sneakers, or shoes with chunky high contrast soles. That's the look. VERY now.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062148 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 01:00:43 +0000 Sal 2062148@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like these on you - and definitely the smaller size.</p> <p>My only concern would be that they are too big - definitely not too small.</p> <p>This shape suits you well!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062147 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 00:59:20 +0000 Janet 2062147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely the smaller size! Can you wear them around the house a bit first to make sure they don’t stretch out too much? Just to be certain you don’t need to go down another size? </p> <p>I kinda like those myself. But I’m a little worried they would not look so good on me. I do like them very much on you. I suspect the appeal of them would be lost on someone who can’t tuck in tops, so I should probably leave well enough alone. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062143 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 00:52:34 +0000 Style Fan 2062143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone for the feedback.<br />Greycat, I would have gone for the larger size if I didn't have the picture.&nbsp; Taking pictures has been a real eye opener.&nbsp; I need to do it more often.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062140 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 00:42:33 +0000 JAileen 2062140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them! If comfy, go for smaller size. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062138 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 00:37:54 +0000 Murph11 2062138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great jean on you! Go for the 28s.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062137 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 00:34:06 +0000 Kate 2062137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute jeans! If both sizes are comfortable, I'd go with the 28s. The larger size looks a little baggy all over. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062136 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 00:33:27 +0000 greycat6 2062136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like pics 3&amp;4.&nbsp; The more tailored fit at the waist balances the volume created by the width of the leg.&nbsp; They look great!</p> <p>Looking at your pictures makes me realize that I have probably bought my wide legs jeans a size too big.&nbsp; I don't like feeling constricted so I tend to buy a bigger size than the sales associates usually recommend.&nbsp; I have never been happy with the way the jeans look on me and haven't been able to figure out why.&nbsp; Thanks for light bulb moment! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062135 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 00:33:26 +0000 Anonymous 2062135@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jeans look very baggy in the legs so you might want to try two sizes down or what you feel fits best, I think once sized down they will give the desired look. I don’t shop that brand so I can’t give feedback if they will stretch more.</p> <p>This look might help </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wide-leg-jeans-what-size#post-2062131 Thu, 19 Sep 2019 00:26:33 +0000 Style Fan 2062131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I ordered two sizes of the BR high rise wide leg jeans after trying on a pair in the store (wrong size).&nbsp; Please excuse the no make up look.&nbsp; It has been one of those days/weeks.&nbsp; And the house needs help too!</p> <p>Picture #1 and #2 Front and Rear Size 29<br />Picture #3 and #4 Front and Rear Size 28</p> <p>These jeans have some stretch in them.&nbsp; They feel very comfortable.&nbsp; I do wonder if they might stretch out.</p> <p>I would appreciate your opinion on what size works best or whether I should return the jeans and look for something else.</p> <p>I do notice that BR has styled the jeans with sneakers which gives me hope that I could wear these with my blue sneakers.</p> <p>Thanks!!!! </p>
