When I'm not wearing skinny jeans...





Forever 21 button-up; American Eagle jeans; Fossil watch; Giant Tiger mocassins

The days I don't wear skinny jeans I feel different. My body feels a different shape; it's as if I have to pay more attention to what I wear with my pants. I don't know, it's just ... different.

I remember when skinny jeans were becoming popular amongst the average woman... 7-8 years ago I guess. I went into Old Navy and saw a pair on a mannequin. I thought about my fav cousin who had already bought her first pair and was rocking them. When I finally got the courage to try them on, I felt like my hips were HUGE. I bought them anyway, probably in an effort to be kind of cool.

Now, if I count all of my pants I would say 80% are skinny. I guess I got over the hip issue and decided they were rockin' enough to become the most popular style in my wardrobe.

In an effort to keep my wardrobe versatile, I do have a boot-cut style (as seen here), a flared style and a pair of boyfriend jeans. They round out the skinnies for when I'm looking for something a little different. But they just don't feel the same...

What is your favourite style of jean?

  1. I used to despise skinny jeans because I hated anything that would be tight on me. somewhere along the lines I got over my fear and now one of them (my black skinnies) are my favorite pair that I have to remind myself to NOT wear some times. Though I definitely still love some oversized, destroyed jeans. Comfy city.

  2. All my jeans are skinny too! It's more easy to wear your boots with this type of jeans :) BUT! Last week I bought a pair of bootcuts... Or wide legged jeans anyway. The pipes are HUGE and I still have to get over my 90ies trauma a bit before I can wear them in public, haha. I love these bootcuts on you! x

  3. The skinnies are my fav too. I still have some straight leg, boot cut, and flared jeans in my closet from seasons past but I don't really wear them anymore.

  6. I actually prefer flared jeans like the ones you're wearing as they make me feel taller and they are easier to dress up. Wait a second, GT sells moccassins? Now that's GT chic! :)

  8. I'm definitely a skinny-jean girl! Boot cut or straight leg always makes my petite frame feel even shorter. But they look really flattering on you!

  9. LOL I did the same exact thing when they came out (I'm a curvier girl too so I was pretty resistant to the skinny jean era) now I love them too! Flares can be great though, especially a nice tailored pair. You look beautiful.
