Wide leg jeans - yay or ney (with photos!)

Hello, I need some advice about jeans. I’ve been wearing skinnies since I went to university well over a decade ago and I fancy a change. Plus, I’ve recently had a baby so I’m not quite the same shape as I was...
I’d like something wide leg and casual, but I’m 5ft11 tall and I’m always afraid of looking bulky.

I want to love these (because they were a bargain and they’ve got cracking pockets!) but I’m just not sure. What do you think? Should I keep them? Or stick with my trusty old skinnies (in the last photo)?

I agree with you about the bra... I’m breastfeeding and not used to having anything more than a C cup. I swear I look ok in the mirror, but looking at myself from a different angle has made me rethink!

I’m going to keep the wranglers. I’m tempted by the dark cropped ones too - I know they’re less flattering, but I like that they’re lovely thick, non stretchy denim and that they’re a fancy ‘Levi’s engineered’ pair, so I feel good in them (even if they are a bit daggy!)

They just look too big for you.

I agree with pp- keep the wranglers, turn them up another one, tuck your t shirt in a bit. They look lovely on you. I have similar ones- I love them, wear them all the time and have been my easy switch out of skinnies

I actually like the widelegs on you but the ones you have on are too big at top. Think all the others look fine. I think that the slim jeans that you posted last really flatter your figure but you need them rolled up more for a relaxed skinny look. You suit those the most.

The wranglers are the best. Coudnt remember the name you posted.
