voodoo_mary said:i'm a big jeans fan. but i've always stuck to boot-cut styles. recently i caved in and bought a skinny jean when i was on holiday (everyone else was wearing skinny jeans in tokyo. i was under extreme pressure to conform!) and guess wat - i love it too.
, I think I have only 1 pair of trousers which are not jeans...
I used to wear boot cut for ages and now I'm looking only for skinny jeans! Match it with any kind of boots and it will make my day! 

As like some of you said, jeans that touch the ground elongate the legs! So would skinnies stump me?
Racergirl said:My favourites are mid-wash to light (somewhere in between) straight cut, low-rise jeans.
I am very short (4'11), and also very slim (37kg)...i find straight cuts make my legs look longer. I have such a hard time finding jeans though, because even if something does fit me in the waist/hips, the thigh area is ALWAYS baggy on me!![]()
I was never into really dark denim because i got the impression it made me look even smaller than i already am (dark colours are slimming right?). However, im not into really light denim..somewhere in between.
What do u think? Do u think dark denim looks ok on short, thin girls, or slightly lighter to mid-wash looks better? I'm contemplating getting skinnies too! Not sure if they'd make me look shorter?As like some of you said, jeans that touch the ground elongate the legs! So would skinnies stump me?


citizens are nice but im having trouble finding ones long enough. i would have bought true religions ages ago but their inseams are short. i want a pair of skinny jeans for my tall boots. i actually have a couple pairs of older bebe jeans that fit nicely as well. i dont like the look of new bebe jeans. i wear my jeans with nikes, flats, boots, metallic sandals...pretty much anything.tuomas said:I'm not into giddy denim, especially not on boys. There's mostly been super-skinny jeans in my wardrobe for a looong time...I've had serious problems finding jeans small and tight enough, since I'm a guy with a 26-27#waist. The stuff I've got is from Helmut Lang, Dior Homme, APC, Raf Simons and Acne, which I resisted buying for years cause of their Scandinavian teenager status, but now the black Ramones-inspired pair from this a/w is my fave.
I also love my oilcloth ones by Dior Homme and Raf Simons' double-layered poplin pair with ripped knees. Then there's the cherished Levi's customized by Bless and some painted Margiela numbers...Almost everything's black/gray/indigo, not a big fan of funny washes.
Fade to Black said:The Raf Simons jeans sound amazing and the custom Levi's also sounds cool, always a fan of customized Levi's from the pics I see of different versions (I think it was in 10 magazine or was it V Man?)...and if you're referring to the 'Cash' model by Acne, I like those a lot...and they seem priced a lot more reasonably than Dior Homme's black gabardine jeans!
Which are the oilcloth Dior jeans you speak of? The orange overdyes?
I don't mind the long inseams (I'm 5.5) Power to the seamstress who hems them all!
