As I seem to be (years) behind the times I thought boot cut was still ok. Apparently not , so I have bitten the bullet and tried some skinny jeans. They are all AWFUL on me truly absolutely hideous ! I have parsnip legs , very long (36" inside leg ) but my thighs are huge compares to my bird like calves and ankles . They really do look stupid beyond belief on me and flipping uncomfortable too .
So what can I do ? Shall I continue to look like a sad thirty something woman in bootcuts which suit me or resemble a root vegetable but be vaguely current in style . I don't have a huge range of jeans to choose from due to my leg length either . What about straight cut are they also to be mocked? I might get away with those , maybe only carrot legs then

There has got to be a website opportunity, for finding jeans that include all the measurements & specs that Trills listed. Is it really so hard, given the prices some of them command?

I bought on epiar of these jeans in John Lewis, relased I liked them them got another pair on eBay...(I realise now I actually paid only abut £45 on eBay (with postage from US), for jeans that were £110 in John Lewis)!
