The Skinny Jean Scene #1

[GlissadeJete]

i've always thought curvy girls looked great in skinny jeans. i also feel like bootcut jeans are not flattering to a lot of curvy (and more girls)... they create a straight line from knee to ground. for a bigger girl that means you basically have one line from hips to ground. they erase the feminine beauty from the feminine form.

to me curvy, equals a victoria secret, shape and i think that would look great. then their is the kate moss shape, which looks great, jessica alba, rachel bilson, beyonce, all have curves at different degrees.

Is it just me, or do skinnies run a size to small?

Normally I fit in a size 2, but I could barely fit into some size 2 skinny jeans the other day. They fit my legs perfectly but then got very tight in the waist. I didn't want to upgrade up a size because I didnt think i would get the same fit on the legs.

I'm not sure, but maybe. I tried some skinny jeans on about 2 weeks ago and I had a similar problem with the fit as well. But then again, I own other pairs and they fit perfectly and comfortably. (The jeans I tried on were the proper size as well, and I'm positive I haven't gained or loss any weight, as far as my body goes.)

I guess that depends on the brand. I e.g. had to go down a size.

i can't ever imagine wearing any other type of jeans
just bought a pair of sass&bide misfits today and they're pretty amazing

I personally love my skinny jeans, they're pretty much the only pants I wear when I have the chance, lol. I really wish that more guys in my area wore skinny jeans as well, I've only seen one other guy wearing them, besides me. I woudl agree that it's easier for men to pull of skinny jeans than women, but only if they are thin men, otherwise it's just terrible. And also, men, there's a limit to how skinny the normal man can go. I mean, I have a pair of Ksubi's that are amazingly tight, almost as tight as I'd imagine leggings would be, but I only wear them with certain outfits, there's a certain balance you need to have to rock them well, and I've seen the ones without the balance as well, and it looks horrendous. I just wish that men would try out skinny jeans, but also know when to stop/how to wear them and when to. New Year's resolutions, men?

Thats great that you are a guy wear skinny jeans! I definately agree that more guys should wear them, they look really hot on guys! Even when they are like leggings tight..Definately certain balance is good for guys, too. I like when guys wear "baggier" shirts with skinny jeans. Also the right shoes are very important for guys and girls! I live in a quite small city and people still give odd looks to guys with skinny jeans. Everyone is just wearing those loose fit jeans here..but its very refreshing to see more guys pulling off skinnys these days.

Lostinemotion, if you wear tight boxers there wont be any lumps on the guy's crotch area, lol.. I think most guys who wear skinny jeans know how to sort of "tuck it in there", so that nothing is showing..

 

[lostinemotion]

^ sounds painful

 

[Crakk]

KI KI, I wear briefs and make sure they fit completely, so no bulge.

 

[toddiot]

I recently bought two pairs of skinny jeans, well one jeans one 'cords anyway. I've worn boxers forever but they're TERRIBLE when it comes to skinny jeans so I may have to switch to briefs... =/

oh, the tucking in/dudes in skinny jeans mini discussion reminded me--when i was in nyc earlier this year this oooold rocker dude (eye shadow, jewelery, etc) cut me off while i was walking and at first i didn't pay any attention but my eyes were downcast and then i suddenly noticed it--plumber's crack (or butt crack)! and then when i was side by side with the dude there was some serious bulge + camel-toe-ing going on. HAHAHA.

at this point i'm not too fond of ultra tapered, tight, and/or super low slung jeans on adult men (regardless of shape)...let alone 50+ year olds. but at the same time i had respect for a guy who has the...uh...confidence to do such a thing.



toddiot--have you tried the tight boxers miss6o mentioned earlier?





anyway, i just got a WHYRED Unwashed Dee for 50+% off...woo! :] the fit and quality of the denim are very good! The Dee is really a standard slim/skinny--not seriously tapered, no fuss, and a classic silhouette.

^ i think they are called boxer briefs, right? normal briefs are not so sexy on men, but i guess if they are more comfortable with skinnies, men could go for those too.

Yeah I think I prefer boxer briefs to just briefs. What about you? I actually think I have some of those laying around at the bottom of my underwear drawer.

Funny how a conversation can get so off topic so fast.

 

[lostinemotion]

i don't think it's off topic at all.
it has to do with finding the right undergarments to wear with skinnies to make skinnies look their best.

 

[ecman2wst]

In the 80's they were in and GUYS were wearing them. Girls didnt wear skinny then. It is funny how WOMEN think men arent wearing them. guyss

 

[ecman2wst]

Skinny jeans were for men in 80s. Rock bands started it.

 

[chel4mdavali]

my ex-boyfriend wears boxer-briefs with his skinny jeans without any problems

 

[ecman2wst]

I have not worn them yet but U used to have my old bootcuts in 80s with basketball shoes. YOu could wear with low cut boot shoes. I will update this later when I wear it. I probably will wear with a slim shirt or long sleeve mid weaight tshirt. Like Billabong long sleeve skateboarder shirt with it. Maybe Emu short boots (like Uggs). I own them too. I will try it with it soon.

Hhah yeah..

Me? Well Im a girl so I wear usually thong with skinnies. lol. I hate when underwear lines show from tight jeans..and skinny jeans are tight.

they are lasting even longer than flares did 5 years ago..they look better dressed imo..not all frayed n stuf, but then agen, that suited some ppl too.
