These are my favorite pair of jeans that I don’t wear. I love that they’re black, and they’re flared, and that they’re not too wideleg, but I never have worn them very often. Maybe because they’re black? Somehow I’ve always had a problem with black jeans, but lately, that’s all I want.
They’re a little long on me now, and a bit big – they gap a lot in the waist, but those are all things I can fix. The denim is super-comfortable, and not very stretchy (which I like). Speaking of stretchy, I tried on several pairs of jeans yesterday at Barney’s Co-Op – just to try – and they were all horrible! I guess I’m old school and like 90% or higher cotton content generally. But everything now seems to have more lycra than I’m used to…or want.
Do you like super-stretchy, body-hugging denim? or styles with a higher percentage of cotton?
Love these J Brands on you!
I love it – especially the low-slung bag. Great for everyday.
I have these in a blue denim – they are great.
I prefer more fitted jeans, in my last post there are three and all of them are skinnies with polyester and elastane. I find them more comfortable to wear and they keep better the shape. I love black jeans, those look great on you. I really want a pair of flare jeans, but as usual it’s really hard to find what I want.
Fantastic look! In theory, I love all cotton jeans, but with my wide waist (or no waist, more like it…), I have to have some stretch so that they’re comfy. I HATE when jeans have too much stretch–then they feel like “disco jeans.”
