    How heavy is too heavy for skinny jeans

    Right this maybe a bit of a stupid question but how heavy would you say is too heavy for skinny jeans?
    I saw a lot of girls wearing them at the mumford and sons gigs and I don't think I was bigger than all of them. I haven't even tried any on ever as I

    I find the pale colours are the ones to avoid as they show every lump and bump - the lilac yellow pale pink etc.

    I have the bright teal ones dark green grey and normal denim!

    Mine are all a 16 and now too big x

    I think skinny jeans are a funny thing. I've got some and I wear them but I will say that I think they should only be worn if you don't have a muffin top over the top. Skinny jeans with muffin top defeats the object entirely. In which case a nicer pair of slim boot cut jeans that fit properly will have a more slimming effect than skinnies

    Don t forget though try on the different shapes they have. They have some good ones. That's why I like their slim boot cut. I hate boot cut jeans but the slim boot cut are fairly straight with only a slight taper out at the foot but that difference balanced out the top half
    Sorry Lexie I didn't think you'd be offended I have a muffin top in anything less than a 16. In fact in my next skinnies I still do and they're an 18. Yet my George and H and M skinnie 16's I don't.
    It does depend on the make though. I think with jeans weve generally got to accept that we'll be a bigger size and with jeans they've got to fit properly to be flattering.and I have to say m and s ones are really comfy as well as fitting properly
