Should You Wear Skinny Jeans?

Probably not. There. Article done. (but seriously folks...) Once this fad actually became a trend, women who knew better seemed to forget the tighter the taper the bigger the butt.
However, you SHOULD try skinny jeans if you DO want a bigger butt. I know many women who say they have a boy body, or the ailment called "noassatall." Skinny jeans are FOR YOU and you should jump on them while they're still (for whatever reason) hot.
Realize there are various versions of "skinny." First straight cut jeans with a slight taper can really create a "skinny jean" effect. Which is in essence what you should be doing now that your old enough to not make those same mistakes again. To create a feel toward trend that looks current, but doesn't take "what's hot" when it's not...on you.
I have a friend who says the only people who look good in skinny jeans are Asian boys. There is a nugget of truth here. Truth aside, I admit, I have a pair. Very skinny. Stretch skinny. Low rise, black, Dolce and Gabanna fit-me-perfect jeans, and I like my rear view.
They're not the best. But they fit and I fell for it. Proportionately they're fine. Being a 45 year old man with gray hair in skinny jeans...iffy.
Realize also: If you're knock kneed, bow legged, have very skinny legs (thighs, knees or ankles to not touch) or heavy legs and calves (they not only touch they rub) you are announcing this fact in skinny jeans.
Just for the record: I LOVE skinny jeans. On skinny gals with balanced proportions.
Leave the skinny jeans to the skinny and proportionate. Or, do what I do. Squint when you look in the mirror, imagine you look hotter than you do, then immediately have a strong martini before going out. You'll think you're fabulous. And that's really all that matters, right?

Top-level comments on this article: (3 total)Okay, this was a very entertaining article. I would hope most women know by now whether they ought to wear skinny jeans, but as it is said, "hope doth spring eternal". Anyway, great job!
what type of tops or shoes should we wear under skinny jeans
Are you saying that if you have knock knees you can't wear tights, skirts or shorts ? Psh get over yourself. I say its worse to be a man in skinny jeans than it is to 'look bad.'What I'm saying is what I wrote. If you are knock kneed and you wear skinny jeans (or tights or shorts) if someone didn't know that fact before now they do.
