Ugh, I'm glad that wide legs might be "out." I have very short legs, and I'm relatively short as it is....and i have small feet (size 6) so, wide leg jeans make me look like all the "gangster" boys did a few years ago.....
They all had those horrible Jnco jeans and they were all competing against each other to get the widest leg possible. Those stupid wide legs eat up my entire foot. Looking down and not seeing your foot? Not a good thing, imo.
Anyway, I stick to straight leg (not skinny, they make my hips/thighs look huge) or bootcut.
Let me take a moment to SHOUT OUT that the new William Rast jeans (Justin Timberlake's) are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! I have the belle style, which is the pockets that protrude out of the back, and they fit so well, and look SO NICE.
They just became my new favorite pair of jeans (and they were half off with Blue Roof Denim!).
