Skinny Jeans: What's So Skinny About Them?

You're going to hate me for this, but I must say that nothing about the skinny jeans appeal to me. Everywhere I go jeans shopping, I hear other women asking about skinny jeans.

Well, duh! Isn't it obvious that if you are twenty pounds overweight, no pair of skinny jeans can save you unless you work out those extra pounds away? Enough with all the optical illusion thing. The hype is just not going to work for everyone.

Sadly, some women easily fall prey into the fashion trap. Most women are easily deceived into embracing the 'IN' thing even if it makes them look ten times worse than they already do. I'm not saying that women should ignore the recent fashion trends, but I'm urging women to have a little more sense on what they wear. It's not just about what's 'IN'. It's more on what fits your physique and what's comfortable on you.

Women should realize that there's more to fashion than meets the eye. I mean if something obviously will only make you look ten times desperate would you wear it? That's exactly what I'm saying. If it fits well wear it baby. If it doesn't, set your own trend. Set your own trend with some good fashion sense. Rather than looking desperate and stupid, why not wear something chic and confident. Be yourself. Express yourself the way you want to. Just don't go overboard. It's not what you wear. It's how you wear it.

Imagine yourself looking so cocooned in a pair of skinny jeans that does nothing to hide your humongous hip area and your bow-legged structure. Can you say, you'll be comfortable enough to flaunt your constricted figure? I guess not.

I can honestly say that skinny jeans will look fine on me and I can wear it on any day, but I like the regular casual feel of the flared jeans better. Well, we have different tastes when it comes to fashion, but who are you kidding when you look for skinny jeans and you look like you could use the gym for some help?

My fashion sense does not conform to what the current media propagates. I set my own trend in consonance with how I feel I should be perceived based on what I wear.

To all women out there, try it yourself. Be free to express yourself with what you feel is right for you. If it makes you feel good go for it. If it makes you feel like you're just another fashion victim, just forget about it.

It matters when someone looks at you and can genuinely say that you're in your element. There's an aura that shows through. It's not enough to be in fashion. You also need to wear a good fashion sense. A woman that projects strength and confidence with an aura of femininity is irresistibly attractive. That you can always count on. Trust me.
