Are Skinny Jeans Over Already?

12/07/2006 at 06:00 AM ET

Well, that was quick! Apparently our readers aren’t the only ones ready to retire the skinny jeans trend. Former drainpipe devotees Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton have come out in flared jeans in the past few weeks, and Rachel Bilson, who we thought looked adorable in her skinny jeans, has also moved onto wider straight leg jeans. We’re not chucking our skinny jeans yet — they are still the easiest cut to tuck into boots — but it looks like this trend is winding down. Do we hear a collective sigh of relief? Let us know.

Sknny jeans are the classiest jeans, they are not for everyone esp if you have Jlo butt. Skinny jeans are perfect with everything! Oversize sweaters, coats, long boots. Ofcourse u cant wear them if you dont have the body for it. People who are hating on them are juz jealous coz they cant wear them!

I think Skinny Jeans are ugly. I wore them when I was little, lol.

Skinny jeans are the worst trend probably ever. They really just don’t look good on anyone, unless they’re tucked into boots. It’s time for a more flattering trend.

Skinny jeans are really cute, but they get old!
They are so cute tucked into boots and Ok with heels.

I am a size 6-8 and I LOVE MY SKINNY JEANS! They key to skinny jeans for people above a size 0? Longer shirts/sweaters (in style) and cute shoes (baleet flats, heels or boots). I have a little “junk in the trunk”, and it only accentuates these assets– which, yes is an asset. You just got to get used to it ladies, but I am telling you– they are great!

Skinny jeans? They are straight leg jeans — they’ve been around for years and will continue to be available. You just have to know the right terminology so you can find them.
