Has anyone just disposed of all their skinny jeans?

I must have 20+ pairs hogging wardrobe space. I haven’t worn a pair since the start of the pandemic but I don’t know how much is dated style versus how much is they are not the obvious choice to sit at home in! The topshop ones have earned their keep but I’m falling into the trap of handwringing over more premium pairs that I’ve only worn a handful of times. I do have other denim but no shape I love as much as the skinny Jean and struggle with styling especially in winter when I’m not a fan of a chilly gap.

am I mad and deluded to hang on to them…help me take the plunge if so!

I'm living dangerously and just bought 2 new pairs.

No it's winter soon so we'll all be back to wearing them tucked into boots seeing as we live in a country with seasons

I sometimes think I would like to move away from skinnies a bit, but I really struggle to find any other jeans that dont look awful on me. I am quite short and a size 8, high waists look awful, and for some reason a lot of jeans make me look grannyish. I am also 50 and wont be dictated by fashion (whatever that is).

Surely the point is we are all different shapes and sizes with different lifestyles and tastes - so why would we all want to wear the same jeans? Wear whatever the heck makes you feel good I say.
