So I've ALWAYS had an obsession with jeans. I think I have more jeans than anything else in my closet as we speak. It is actually kind of starting to get pretty rediculous. But lately, I've become especially obsessed with skinny jeans. I've been just about devoted to skinny jeans ever since they first came out two years ago. I also just love the fact that they come out with so many different types such as long, short ones that are cut off at the ankles, colored ones, and super tight ones. Although, I'm not much of a fan for the colored ones, so the only skinny jeans close to color that I have are black. The possibilites are just endless and I think it is absolutely great that they make your legs look longer and leaner.
"What do I wear them with?", you ask. Well this is where I can help you. Lately I've been seeing so many people wearing them with a top that is just very unflattering. I see them in person and even in the magazines by some of the celebrities. REDICULOUS. Now first let's remember that no one wants saggy skinnies....no, no, no. So make sure that when you go out to buy yourself a pair, they snug well to your legs. Next, I say we balance the slim of the leg with a cute, flowy top. Now by flowy top, I don't mean super baggy, almost look like your drowning in your shirt, kinda top. I mean a cute, well-fit top. For example, if you look to your left, this top, from Anthropologie what I think a perfect example of a cute top that would look FABULOUS with any skinny jeans. I would prefer wearing this top with dark skinnies, or black skinnies and a really cute pear of black heels or even flats. To find tops to dress up your skinnies with, I prefer to check out Anthropologie, Forever 21, and Nordstrom. Those are just some of my favorites.
Now, if you choose to dress-down, I would prefer to dress down your skinnies with a cute loose hoodie like the "Boyfriend Hoodie" that Victoria's Secret sells. Or you can dress it down with a cute baby doll tank from Abercrombie & Fitch, which i know they have tooons of. You can also dress it down with layered wife-beater tanks and throw in a cute little blazer. Now for shoes, I reccomend flip flops or cute casual flats.
Now if you're looking for a good pear of skinny jeans, I reccomend for you to try out 7 For all Mankind, True Religion Jeans, and Abercrombie & Fitch. Those are my absolute favorites. But right now, I'm deffinately feeling the Abercrombie skinnies. The super dark wash, matches with EVERYTHING I have, and they can deffinately do the same for you.
Now that I shared with you my secret to wearing skinny jeans, I hope you try it out and I hope your outcome turns out as great as you want!!

I am also obssessed with jeans! And I clearly do not have enough of them. I do, however, have two pairs of skinny jeans and I love them. I do like your idea about pairing them with a a cute, flowy top and not with one that absorbs your entire body into its fabric. I also am really into the wide-legged pants now although I don't have any! It looks like I need a trip to the mall..Anyway, enjoyed your post and I hope you keep up with more jean fashion news!
So i love jeans too, but the only problem is I don't love any of the jeans I own!!! I can never find any that I like for a decent price...But I know that this season I am going to head over to Abercrombie to pick up a pair!!! hopefully skinny jeans to wear with all my cute flats! And I completely agree with the flowy tops, you definitely need to balance out the tightness of the jeans with a loose top. I have seen sooo many people wearing tight shirts with skinny jeans and i think that this is a huge no-no! So unflattering! I think that balance is definitely key for any outfit...like mini skirts for example...I at least try to wear a loose top with them too, or at least a shirt with more coverage to compensate for all the leg that is showing. But if you know of any jeans that you like that aren't so expensive, keep me updated!
