I love skinny jeans, but as many have said before – long shirts or tunics make the world of difference. My legs are my asset yet my midsection is my downfall. So I say emphasize your strengths and hide your weaknesses. Okay, maybe we should strengthen our weaknesses, I just prefer to hide them. It’s easier that way.

Some days, I think mine are okay…others not so much!

And, I blame my kids for the mid-section.

HA! Yes the skinny jeans I bought do not fit me, but I figured – maybe someday they WILL! Hey for $5. I do not have the “skinny jean” build either. Who does? 7-foot-tall super models? Because I think the term “skinny jeans” is somewhat of a misnomer. They do not make one look skinnier. I think that sneaky marketing ploy was deliberate.

Ugh. I’m so with you. I’m sure boot cut are considered “out” but that’s my jeans of choice. No low rise either after 3 C-secs. My belly needs to be contained! :) Uh oh. I just realized I could totally be in SNL’s “Mom Jeans” spoof!

Honey, I’m on the hill going to 30 yet and I do not look good in skinny jeans! I’m not sure most people do.

I am so there! I love me some skinny jeans, but I’m like Robin and have to wear tunics, or long sweaters, and high boots. Hopefully I don’t look like I’m trying too hard…

I feel ya, I have no hips or booty. Skinny jeans are ug-a-ly on me. I have 2 brands that are good enough but I really should invest in a tailor.

Skinny jeans have *never* looked good on me. I’m very wide-hipped, something no amount of diet/exercise will ever cure (it was there even during my super-skinny teen years), and I end up looking like an odd V shape from the waist down.

Though for $5, the tunic/boot idea might work…and that’s totally in fashion now!

In reply to robin. Yes, please--go run and get some!! It was a shame to put all of those jeans back on the rack. I really, really wanted to take advantage of the deal. I hope you can find them at your Target. The deal has been confirmed at two Targets.
