Skinny jeans are over!

August 11th 2008 04:47
While the look on the streets of Sydney right now is skinny jeans tucked into knee-high boots, don't expect this style to stay trendy for much longer. Right now in Hollywood, stars are embracing the baggy, 'boyfriend' style of jeans, which are not only far more comfortable than their skinny counterparts, they're much more flattering for those of us without perfect figures.




Faded denim is also making a comeback, so if you can combine these two trends, then so much the better. Baggy jeans look best when worn with a fitted top - wear a loose one and you'll risk looking too grungy. And remember to keep your footwear flat and relaxed: toss the boots back into your wardrobe and go for sneakers or thongs.



If you've just bought yourself some skinny jeans, then don't fret: they are still a very popular style in Australia and you've got some time before they're last season's news. Here are some photos of celebs who are embracing the comeback of baggy jeans.

Ah, I've been wearing baggy jeans since I was eleven. Can't stand the skinny ones. Glad to see I'm in-style (for once in my life).

I think Stacy and Clinton of "What Not to Wear" said it best: skinny jeans flatter no one. Not even skinny people.

Oh my god..! Even if you hate skinnys, how can you turn to that. Just look at Victoria Beckham; she looks like the dirtiest ho-bag ever... Is it just me or does she just scream "ice addict". This Bilson woman; what the fuck is going on there...
All of them just look trashy, like they were picked up on a street corner for less than five, the night before.

Oh, wait. Katie Holmes, if you're going to wear Aladdin pants, please for gods sake, wear the shiny satin ones... not dirty ol' jeans.

Paris. Out of all of them I thought she would be the biggest offender, but no, her bell flairs aren't that bad at all. Why? Because their Bell Flair's. Not trashy, too big, "i work the streets at night" jeans that look like you stole them from your drug dealing boyfriend as revenge for him giving you herpes!!

Gotta admit, Katie Holmes's alladdin pair is pretty dreadful. But Gwen wears it best. Then again, she was the lead in No Doubt. Of course she can wear rugged!
