Skinny jeans - YouLookFab Forum

It doesn't feel like I'm wearing skinny jeans all the time, but I made a run through my current collection and that sure as heck is what it looks like. I think it's because I wear the black and blue Citizens Charlotte a lot. My two widest pairs aren't in finds (a split hem boot cut and a baggy light acid wash pair (that I will be consigning by summer.)

You always have great clothes , Lisa. And your jeans are no exception . Glad to see I’m not the only slim jeans lover .

Great denim collection. Slim/skinny/straight leg suit you so well.

What a beautiful collection, Lisa. You look excellent in slim/skinny jeans so no reason to stop wearing them.

I don't wear jeans as much as before, but still have a decent sized collection. Most of mine are also some variation of slim: tailored skinnies (not skintight), cropped real straights and cropped kick flares (that I have developed a sugar eye for very since they showed up a couple of years back).

I think this all make sense as for most people slimmer cuts are easier to wear compared to baggy or fashion forward styles, or even to full length bootcuts/flares which require the correct weather.

I am a fan of slim jeans and will not give them up even as I dabble with wider fits. The COH Charlottes are my ideal jeans shape - at least as they fit the model. Agree that you always look chic!

Well if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. You’ve got a great collection. Nice range of colours and prints. I like the striped versions in particular.

Beautiful jeans - feeling a bit jealous .
I think the right footwear is my biggest problem when I'm trying for more fashion forward look - still looking for cool sneakers for 2021.

A good collection!

Great collection!

Style Fan

Great collection of jeans! You always look fantastic in your denim.

nemosmom

Love your collection! Agree these are not the skinny jeans of old, but a more updated version (slim/straight?).

Helena

If it ain't broke, don't fix it ... I always think of Jennifer Aniston; she kept on wearing her slim bootcuts and boyfriend jeans right through skinny jeans most ascendant moments - and she is the queen of jeans. I personally love a slim jean and will stick with them!

Fwiw, I agree with Nemosmom too, these are current looking and not one bit dated.

What Brooklyn said!

Skinny jeans are less in the front row fashion wise but with so many people wearing leggings they seem pretty current!

Ummlila - you have such amazing taste in clothes! Super collection of jeans. I personally love skinny jeans. I do buy them a size up so they are very skimming but not at all tight. Currently the Paige Transcend in skyline, and I duplicated in a different wash, are my favorites. I have the bootcut version but I wear that much less often. I also love the Madewell 9" skinnies although I feel like the rise is closer to 10" They are high rise on me. Madewell has great washes.

The other silhouette I enjoy is the COH slim boyfriend. Being 5'3" and slim, wide jeans just make me feel fat and frumpy. Also a 9" to 9 3/4" rise is my sweet spot. It gives me that long torso to go with my long legs/height. Also skinnies look great with blazers and that's my jam. For me it's all about flattery and creating the proportions that look best. But you have an incredible eye and wardrobe!! Kudos!!
