Or something with a more refined element, along the lines of the trouser jeans mentioned

A very dark wash will also make this style more wearable

These three are the only cute jeans that have been posted on this whole thread. Man, threads like this always make me feel sad for the dc fashion scene.

Whereas I find them pretty dated. The ones that are fitted in the hips/thighs are more flattering maybe but they're not on trend.

This is the style that works best for me, too. I tried a recent Wirecutter recommendation and bought a pair of the straight leg Gap 90s jeans they said looked great on everyone. I'm short and they look awful on me. I feel like I'm ready to work the farm in them. They have now become my walking-the-dog jeans.

Does this shift to wide leg jeans mean we’re not going to be wearing them at or above the ankle anymore?

Just buy boot cut and be done with it.

I'm not wearing that. I'm 47 and 5'5 and 130 lbs. I wear actual straight leg jeans, which are not glorified skinny jeans, but true straight. I'm not wearing giant legged pants. I have a few mini boot, but mostly straight, and they are fine.

I like these looks a lot.

Careful - they look good on her - she has a fabulous figure so anything is going look good. But, just seem sloppy/lazy to me.

I just bought light blue high waisted flared jeans and they look great on. They have some stretch to them but extremely flattering.

I saw a mid40s (I think) woman wearing the baggy jeans at a museum today and it looked so so unflattering. Dress for your body type!

I like both of these two looks (Evereve) for women over 40.

I’m not wearing wide ridiculous pants that
make me look 10 lbs heavier. No thanks.

Check out 9 to 5 Chic. She doesn’t wear jeans often but has good style.

I think that these wide jeans are not great with sneakers so you may want to try them with different footwear. I think something with a more feminine aesthetic is best, but even Chelsea boots, loafers may be better than sneakers.

I also think a fitted base shirt tucked in with a blazer, light jacket or cardigan looks good
