Thank you @suntiger, @jussie, @Sal, @Indigoprint, @Kyle, @Jaime, @Brooklyn! Your positive reaction and compliments will help me to find more ways to wear new wide leg jeans .

@Angie - I thought about the alterations you've suggested but not sure my sensitive stomach will be feeling good with slightly higher rise ( 9" is a higher rise on me ). Any pressure on that soft pouch makes me miserable enough to change the outfit completely. The only pair of jeans that was close to suggested style was Express slim-straight jeans with lower rise on the front ( almost a V shape ) and noticeably higher on the back that I've had years ago in Seattle - I wore them until I've got a hole in the back.

They look wonderful on you!

Slim Cat, thanks for the reply! If you DO decide to experiment, try a soft fabric like Ponte, cotton, or something stretchier and softer than denim. It's good to have another option on your radar - just in case!

Or...carry on with your fab swishy skirts because we love those too

So impressive! They look great on you!

Love everything about this outfit! Those jeans are super-flattering on you and you styled them perfectly.

You look fab and are rocking these low-rise jeans!
