Do you have to be skinny to wear skinny jeans?

[Dragonbutter]

Out of interest. I see skinny jeans are very in and as i have inherited my fathers chunky legs I'm presuming skinny jeans would be a definite no-no.

I'm a size 14, 5'2" pearshape.

Skinny jeans, yes or no?

yes and preferably tall

Yes and tall and not pear shaped.
I'm size 6-8, 5'2 and I look hideous in them.
They add at least a stone to me and emphasise my thighs which I've never liked much anyway.
I feel better and slimmer in a bikini!(not that I have much chance to wear one).

Skinnies look fab on tall slim people with pert bums!

According to a 'fashion forward' mate of mine bootcut is back in and black jeans are the way to go. I've just bought some black bootcut jeans from Oasis and they make me look at least half a stone lighter!
