Thanks to all of you guys, I have recently invested in a pair of skinny/straight jeans and a pair of the Gap legging jeans. Woohoo!

The problem comes when I try to figure out what to wear with them. My shoulders are definitely the widest part of me, and I don't have much in the hip/rear/leg department. So, this weekend I tried on many different cardigans, mostly "boyfiriend" style since I need something longish to go with these bottoms. The problem I keep running into is that the cardigans end up making me looking really wide, like a wide rectangle, especially when left open. When buttoned they make my shoulders look huge. Not having much luck with tunics either.

Does anyone have any advice, or do I need to buy a few things and take photos so you all can see what I mean?

Please help! Thanks everyone!
