I have big feet so, I feel like they look dumb on me unless I'm wearing boots (which I don't very often). I also don't like them on my lo because they are SO hard to get on and off. Plus, her feet look huge in shoes when she's wearing them. Just give me a regular pair of boot-cut jeans any day for me and my daughter and I'm happy.
Thankfully, my husband isn't into them because I *really* don't like them on men/boys...

I loathe skinny jeans on men, which is all I saw in Europe! PUHLEESE! I also don't like them on my son, but I think that's more a case of he's not a hipster...he just can't pull that look off.
I like them for myself, but only in certain scenarios, such as with boots and only with a pull on waist...that sounds attractive, lol.

I still haven't found a pair that I really like. The skinniest jeans I have are actually strait leg, and I got them in 2006. I am afraid I will never find another pair like those. But, I freaking love skinny jeans on P. It's like the slightly fancier version of leggings, and I love putting her in leggings! lol.

Oh, and skinny jeans on grown men = no. I can't in a million years imagine how incredibly ridiculous DH would look in skinny jeans.
hahahahahhaah. I am laughing just picturing it.

Me!
I don't care for close fitting clothing in general. Plus, a pair of boot-cut jeans actually flatter my figure. Skinny, not so much.

I don't like them. I don't like to shimmy into my clothes.

I can't stand skinny jeans! I don't mind them on some people, but not for me. I have hips and I need something on the bottom to balance them out 
For M I love the old navy jeggings, but as far as more structured jeans, boot-cut all the way!

I love this quote from Blake Shelton ""Grown men who wear skinny jeans may as well wear a t-shirt that says 'Even though I don't have to, I pee sitting down...'"
I don't like men or boys in skinny jeans!
I put my daughter in stretchy jeggings but I'm not a huge fan of actual denim skinny jeans on her because they definitely are a pain to get on and off.
I used to hate them for me too but I just recently found a great pair at the gap that actually looks really good on me so I was psyched about that.

When I was thinner I LOVED them on me. That was like... 50 pounds ago though! Haha

I don't like skinny jeans. They don't look right on me. I don't think they're for everyone. I think they look so cute on LO. I've seen some men who look cute in skinny jeans--those boys are usually extremely petite and feminine
ETA: When skinny jeans first came out, I was said, "Aren't these just those classic fit aka tapered Mom jeans from the Gap?"

I don't like them, either. My husband would look ridiculous in them! lol!

@MrsF: Same! I have hips and skinny jeans just highlight how WIDE they are! I never buy pants where the leg is thinner than the thigh part!

I refused to wear them at first, but now I don't mind them. I do feel weird if I'm not wearing boots with them. And I prefer a bit of a longer shirt with them, too. I'm tall and a bit of a string bean, though.

They look terrible on me. I have big hips + thighs; I look much better in wide leg or boot cut jeans.

My body doesn't like skinny jeans lol I wish I could find a pair that looked right on me so I could wear cute boots

I hate them! I definitely have hips so they aren't flattering. I also don't like the way they feel on me. I usually wear boot cut jeans.

Me! I still haven't even tried on a pair! I know they would look horrible on me, I'm short (5'2") and I have really wide hips and a big butt! I would probably laugh at myself in the mirror...

I only like then on me with knee high boots over then as a longer looser top. The problem is if we go someplace where I have to take my shoes off, especially in winter with snow and stuff. Without the boots I think they make my hips look wide and I just look dumpy.
I definitely don't think they are a trend that works on everyone. But people seem to think it does..,
And yeah skinny jeans on men- no. On LOs I prefer jeggings! C had an outfit that came with pink jeggings and they pretty much kill me they are so cute!

I will only wear them with boots, but I'm not a huge fan of jeans in general. I'd rather wear a pair of comfy skinny pants and boots, especially if they stretch!
wonderful cherry / 21504 posts
@sarbear: you need to try them on with the right outfit. I have a pair that def don't look great with socks but with boots over them its fine. I actually brought the boots into the fitting room.

@Foodnerd81: I really need a stylist haha. I'm the most untrendy, not stylish at all person haha

i finally got a pair last year that i wear with boots. i'm not comfortable wearing them with flats though.

I am not a fan. I can't wear them since I have big thighs, I need to balance out on the bottom.
I HATE HATE them on men.

He doesn't wear them a lot, but the only man who gets a pass from me is Adam Levine. (Not that anyone asked, but he should totally be with Anne V!)
