Okay, I've been a boot leg girl for a while now. Having seen the skinny leg jeans being worn so well by various coworkers I decided to switch things up a bit. If you notice I mention denim a lot it's because I wear jeans everyday and they help me pay my rent (I work for a denim company).
Fast forward 3 months and I have had to resign myself to the fact that most skinny jeans are just too severe for my body type (I'm 5 '3 " with a healthy appetite). However, I am happy to report that straight leg jeans are a slightly more forgiving silhouette that lends itself to a similar aesthetic of a "skinny" jean. With a slightly wider knee and leg opening you can wear them, eat a meal, and not look crazy afterwards. I purchased 2 pairs --see pic at inset--from the Gap (their regular jeans don't even fit me...go figure!) and have received such comments as "Have you lost some weight" and "Nice jeans". So maybe getting rid of some of that excess fabric at the bottom can actually have a slimming effect....hmmm.
