Do you wear something that covers the tops of your thighs when you wear skinny jeans, and if so, what?

[MrTumblesBum]

My thighs are ok but I like to hide the very tops of them in skinny jeans as they just feel BIG.

Tend to wear a longline vest under whatever else I'm wearing, or a dress. Anyone have any other suggestions.

How do you weare your skinnies, out of interest, are you mostly out and proud thigh-wise?

I think if you're going to try and pull off skinnies, you have to just go for it, and not swamp them under layers. You can't have a bad figure if you can squeeze yourself into them, so embrace it!

I never wear anything that goes past the arse pockets of the jeans as a rule. If I am going to wear anything longer, like a tunic, then I will wear leggings underneath instead of jeans as I end up feeling like I am wearing too much if that makes sense?

Yep, I know exactly what you mean about too many clothes bangtastic - it all starts to feel a little bit 90s dresses over trousers for me too.

Ok, maybe I'll take the plunge. As I say, my things aren't too bad, they are just chunkier than the rest of my leg )obviously) My skinnies are all in a dark indigo wash too which I think highlights them less (hope)

I do the same, I find that long tops over skinniest make me look bigger because the pockets and fabric all seem to add bulk. For skinnies I wear tops that finish belt height and for longer tops I wear leggings.

IF your thighs are big its surely pretty unlikely that skinny jeans are a good look, whether or not you are wearing something over the top of them, surely?

IMO 85% of folk who wear skinnies are wearing a look that flatters them NOT AT ALL

I said they feel big, not that they are big. I'm 3 stone lighter than I was 18 months ago and it takes a bit of getting used to.

But thanks for the kind words Efa

I LIKE dresses over jeans! but I suspect that I generally dress like the 90s never died

Sometimes I go for shorter length tops but there's nowt wrong with a longer one IMO. I'd recommend avoiding anything with pockets for reasons others have mentioned, and I personally don't wear anything too tight ? I think loose relaxed-fitting tops and tunics look better.

If you don't think your thighs look good in skinnies don't wear them. They are very obvious. Wearing skinnies highlights your thighs, even if you cover the thighs. The skinny legs make you see/look at the hip and thigh area.

If you are just nervous but know they look fine stand for ages in front of a mirror and repeat over and over 'I look great'
