I'm sitting here at work wearing a brand new pair of skinny jeans. I stupidly bought them after a tiny boutique owner convincingly told me a size 29 was for me even after I asked her for a size 30. She looked at me with a straight face and said everybody looks good in
skinny jeans. I expected the ceiling to fall in the second after she
said those words, but it did not. She explained that she could give me other type of jeans to try on, but I wouldn't look fashion forward. So, due to my vanity/insecurity, I left the store with the Spanish inquisition torture-device jeans. The truth is almost no one looks good in skinny jeans except 14 year-olds and exceptionally thin college girls.
