To Skinny or not Skinny, that is the question?

ecently North America has been swept with the skinny jean phenomenon. Well maybe not a phenomenon but you are noticing a lot of big celebs have been pushing the look, even rappers. It’s a great look, but needs to be done in a proper manor. Many Emo kids, punk rockers like to wear the really tight fitted styles, which are ok if you’re into that look, but personally I find it revolting. My best experience with the skinny jeans was about a year a go, standing inline waiting to get into a lounge. I saw this pretty muscular guy rocking black skinny jeans with a fitted blazer beige blazer. Now the jeans stood out because they were not overly tight and the shoes he was wearing were mid cut black leather boots which looked well together. So here are some notes to follow when trying to wear skinny jeans.
1) Again, if you have a very large build, and huge thighs
maybe hit the courts and work off some of that size before you rock them. Not everyone can wear these remember.
2) Try to go for a size or two larger. I am a size 32 and went for a size 34 which gives me room for the goods to breathe.
3) Shoes! Remember this puts the piece together; don’t wear your old busted up pair of Nikes. My tip, would be go for the mid cut leather boots (for a more night time/grown up feel) or the simple old-school retro kicks like the chuck Taylor’s.
4) Usually skinny jeans work well with fitted tee’s or fitted dress shirts. Even a nice cardigan doesn’t look to shabby. If you can rock a baggy shirt and get a way with it, you’re probably easy on the eyes with the ladies!
