[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know skinny jeans are out but I don’t care!

Skinny jeans, structured boots, oversize sweater and a nice scarf. I love dressing in fall - it’s the best season for fashion IMO.[/quote]

Yes! I hate it when people declare something out in unison, like vocal lemmings. Multiple Jean fashions can coexist or be in style simultaneously because there are so many different body types and no one style flatters all. [/quote]

I mean, this is how fashion works. Things go in and out of style. You can keep wearing skinny jeans if you want, but that doesn’t make them in.[/quote]

Things go in and out of style, and whether they are "in" has literally ZERO correlation to how flattering they tend to be.  That overall skinny jeans look sounds dated and out of style (it's often more about the shoes and accessories than the denim).  But that doesn't mean it's unflattering...wear what you want.[/quote]

I think this is an antiquated picture of how "in style" is defined. This may have been the case previously, when there were few voices determining trends. Now that there are so many fashion influencers or just people creating / trying trends, multiple trends can coexist simultaneously. I think this article in the NYT addresses the topic well. I think there are others but I don't feel like looking.

Sort of.. but not exactly. It is true that multiple trends can coexist, but the fact that some people are still wearing the exact outfits they wore 10 years ago doesn’t mean that those are fashionable. Of course wear whatever you want… but this is the fashion forum so when people ask about what to wear this season, I don’t think they are asking what someone who pays zero attention to current trends is wearing. [/quote]

+1 when I see someone now wearing skinny jeans, I don’t think “what an independent and original thinker!” I think [b]“they must not have the time/money/inclination to keep their wardrobe current.” [/b]To be clear, I don’t judge people for that - to each their own, truly. But let’s not pretend that trends don’t still exist and that certain looks don’t look dated. [/quote]

Or they know what looks good on them and prefer to stick with flattering over trendy.  Having a sense of personal style is, to me, really appealing.[/quote]

OK… though at a certain point it does just look completely dated. And again.. not the point of the FASHION forum. [/quote]

When did the fashion forum become about group think? I feel like the posters who adhere so strictly to what is deemed in fashion are 40+ / middle age. 
 I wear skinny, slim, and wide jeans because all look good on my slim frame. [/quote]
