Skinny jeans with a big arse?

I am average weight for my height (11 stone, 5ft 10, size 12) so can get away with most styles. However I have always kept away from skinny jeans or trousers as I have a big arse - not Kardashian proportions but definitely out of proportion with the rest of me.

Anyway I went shopping with a friend and her teen dd yesterday and the dd said skinnies would be perfect on me as 'bums are in' Hmm

So it got me thinking - after I'd mentally given her a good slap - should I get it out a bit more? I wear tight-ish jeans if i'm wearing long loose tops, but I would never think my big sticky outy bum was something I should show off. Is that just be being old and out of touch?

I do get bored with the same 'look' all the time, would a big bum in tight jeans look awful when the rest of me is quite a bit slimmer?

Thanks for that link Tycho, really interesting, although I fear I may have to chuck out most of my jeans now as on having a quick look they all seem to have big high wide apart pockets :/

Does anybody know any brands with lower, close together ones?
