Same. I like how I look in skinny jeans, and the fact that there are so many to choose from in the sale means I’m not the only one! (Bootcut and flares will also require hemming unless I specifically get a petite brand because not as many of those are ankle-length styles…I have learned I never hem…and I prefer brands that don’t come in petite like Mother and Frame.)

My solution to the hemming issue in general is to wear platform shoes, which not coincidentally, have been on trend with flares and bootcuts...I think Y2K is back in force. Being taller and elongating legs w/o alterations isn't too bad. You can wear espadrilles in warm weather and platform boots in cold. Much more comfy than high heels too.

For those of you who like the skinny’s, want to look more up to date and don’t want the length issues that arise with the flares/bootcuts a good option is the boyfriend. I recently bought Frames le Garson. They are a bit more relaxed and modern than the skinny but the silhouette is still similar. I find them versatile, they look great with flip flops and a tee or more dressy with a nice summer blazer... for reference with these particular jeans I had to size down as they were stretchy and big around the waistline. They also sit on the hip rather than the waist.

Good suggestion for in btwn skinny and non. I have them and would also recommend ladies to try them.

Oh mannnn I’m bummed, this was my most wanted too and I can’t shop until Wednesday because I’m an Ambassador. I just checked my wishlist, and was very surprised to see some of the sell outs: a Monica Vinader bracelet, a basic tee, a random CeCe fast fashion-y sweater, and the only pair of jeans I wanted (Hudson Jeans Barbara straight leg…my first foray out of skinny jeans in a decade). I wouldn’t have pegged any of these as early sell outs because none of them were being really talked about anywhere other than the Reiss coat!

Just realized I own way too many jeans bc I have the Barbara and they are awesome. The pair I own are black coated (on sale at saks for 50% off now). They look a bit like leather pants so bonus for versatility.

Based on my wishlist, besides the Keds platform sneakers that I mentioned earlier that sold out within minutes of the sale, the Nike crewneck in dark red is also sold out in most sizes besides XXL. I bought the black, grey, and ivory versions last year that I love and wear often, so wanted to get a color version this year. I sent my SA those items for him to keep an eye out for me, as some stuff is still arriving.

I still love wearing my skinny jeans and will continue to wear them. Maybe because I’m so used to me in them that I think that style works best on my body. I used to have bootcut and flare jeans about a decade ago, but I never really wore them often. I have a couple boyfriend jeans from a few years ago somewhat in the rotation. I tend to wear more dresses than I do pants and jeans, so the only pair I bought during the sale this year is the Kut from the Kloth boyfriend ones.

I agree too.. I love a flare jean. The boyfriend or the slim straight categories work well for me. My fiance' hates jeans that are too high waisted but I love a good 9/10/11 inch rise. I'm over 40 there are no more low-rise jeans in my future. I have the rag n bone boyfriend slim on my wish list

Hi

I agree with Erin and would not invest in skinny jeans. I live in Europe and the shift away from skinny’s is visible. Wear the ones you already own but I wouldn’t buy more. I don’t follow influencers but I have seen Erin through this forum. She seams to be good . I have young nieces and when I bought baggy jeans last Christmas they loved them. They don’t were skinny any more.

I am not buying more as I own a ton. But I already lived through the 90's and have no desire to wear those crazy jeans again.

 

[lovemyrescues]

I am SO bummed out. The item I wanted the most is now completely sold out in every size.. come on!!! I hope I can catch a restock.

I know they are having issues getting stock right now (shipping from overseas) and I bet a lot of sold out items will pop up at the end of the month.

I have my appt with my SA today at noon, but she already bought me many items online that were not in our store. She did this through the style board. Sadly those OnCloudflow tennies are indeed sold out already on the morning of day 1!

Have you tried Revitalash/Revitabrow? Do you think Neulash worked better than Revita?

Personally I liked revita more than neu. I didn’t get as good of results w neu and it kinda irritated my skin.

Thanks for the info, I'm really leaning towards this version!

I love the sorel wedges!! My mom loves her black zippered Joan’s. You can’t go wrong w these

East coast time will never not be rough. Didn’t think I was getting up, but oddly enough I woke up at 2:55am to my husband’s snoring So I added my wishlist to cart at 3am and went back to bed. Considering the site crashes last year when they launched later in the day, this was definitely preferable.

Only thing that is sold out on my list thus far is the On Cloudflow. I got the rock/rose colorway in my usual size, hoping these fit normally. I did in store pickup, so I’m a little nervous I won’t get them because of SAs trying to set aside inventory. If I don’t get them or they don’t fit, they’re just not meant to be!

Your usual sneaker shoe size should be good. I didn’t size up in mine. Love the Ons!

I agree, however I think that it really doesn't matter as jeans style come and go I'm going to wear what I have.

Skinnys are supposed to be out, however I still enjoy them and will wear what I have. I think they look the best tucked in boots.

I’m not one to follow trends—I wear what I like, which is a mix of vintage and new items that resemble pieces from the 60s-90s. (I went to high school and college in the 90s and still kind of dress the same.) Think skinny jeans are flattering on most people, especially petites. Think they will get a pass and can be worn for forever. Rock stars haven’t given them up.

Think trends like “mom” or “boyfriend” or “your weird neighbor” jeans are more likely to look dated whenever people tire of them!

Yes, wear what you like and feel best in. Don't only listen to trends. Those keds platforms are very cute. Will go great with the KftK bf jeans.

I missed the Nike crewneck last year since I got the Alo and Zella amazing ones. Do not get the Alo's bc it looked great, but pilled horribly after 2 or 3 washes.

Aww, sad to hear about the Alo ones. I loved that pink color from last year, though it didn’t look flattering on me so I passed. The Nike ones have held up nicely and no piling.

As a petite person, thank you. At 5'1 and at 107 lbs I look horrid in flared, bootcut or boyfriend jeans.

The Moonlight pj’s I was planning to get are already selling out. Can’t shop until Wednesday. Hoping there is a restock later and this is just an inventory issue!

I usually purchase a good chunk on the first shopping day of the sale. Wonder if enough stock will be available to warrant using a double points day? If inventory really is coming in later this month, that’ll be good for non-cardmembers, at least. They can finally enjoy the sale!

Which style are you looking at? I’m a 7.5/8 and last year got the Short packable boots in a 7 and they are perfect. I am usually a 7 in the taller styles but go up to an 8 in the Chelsea styles. Hope that helps!

They are the black short version with the gray adjustable bit at the back. It did say to size down if you're a half size, but I feel like shoes that only come in whole sizes can be all over the place. Thank you for the info!
