Skinny jeans are a small trade for having a great kid! You are a smart mama.<BR/><BR/>Beck--Matt is many things, but I don't think anyone could accuse him of being "fashiony", so tell him not to worry. Rocking the old man shades will cancel out any accidental trendiness, anyway.<BR/><BR/>Kate--you skinny minnie, you can totally pull of skinny jeans. Not I! Trinny and Susannah would materialize to confront me if I ever put a pair on.<BR/><BR/>David--hi and welcome!!

And I must admit that they do make me feel sooo wonderfully feminine. But the key word there is feminine. As in, only cute cause they go with girl curves, not boy-nonexistent-curves.

Unlike the guy in the top one, you just don't expect this guy to be rocking those skinny brown (!) jeans. From the waist up, he looks like a totally regular dude who you would expect to be wearing the same Gap khakis three days in a row. But then, below the waist, the story changes. I am so confused!<BR/><BR/>Of course, as you know, Matt is the polar opposite of those guys, and whenEVER I buy him a new pair of jeans, he complains that I'm trying to put him in a "new" cut that is "all fashiony." Like, yeah hon, Lands End is now taking men's jeans in a really edgy direction.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06517252487552392654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897882981515430685.post-22979954073537634522009-03-03T03:56:00.000+11:002009-03-03T03:56:00.000+11:00Preach it, sistah!

That is just wrong. I am not offended -- my 11 yr. old son wears skinny jeans. And skater shoes and skater t-shirts. And he can actually do skateboarder tricks. I prefer "regular" jeans like my other two sons prefer. I gotta pick my battles. He has longish hair but he is also the most respectful, sweet, adorable, straight A, popular student so I keep washing them for him to wear every week.Michele Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17030846420862437581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897882981515430685.post-81405566257791711972009-03-03T00:56:00.000+11:002009-03-03T00:56:00.000+11:00although i'll have to admit that my own jeans have...although i'll have to admit that my own jeans have gotten skinnier since this all started, i realized that the trend had gone too far when i tried on a pair of skinny jeans for fun once and they were TOO TIGHT FOR ME! anyone who has ever seen my legs will find this hard to comprehend. <BR/><BR/>at least these guys sag their jeans at the crotch and save us from a complete form fit.melondonkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02818146576436658055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897882981515430685.post-24081561552767545122009-03-03T00:24:00.000+11:002009-03-03T00:24:00.000+11:00I stand in agreement with you!
