    I don't think your looking in the right places so! It's still pretty common, I see it all the time in Dublin city. I'll agree it's a great look!

    According to the fashion boffins the skinnies are on their last legs, he he (sorry crap joke but at least Im entertained!) and the flaired jean with a slightly high waist is coming in to take their place. Blame it all on the waif like Ms. Moss coz she introduced skinnies and was the first to be seen in flairs. Its 60's all the way for the Summer apparently, that and acid brights, metallics, big volume (dresses coats etc) and brocade...

    Yup, skinnies are out of favour now and the wide leg/flare is back in.

    Thank god too! I do not have the legs, or the confidence, for skinny jeans. While I think they look great on women with fantastic legs, there's so many heifers out there that squeezed themselves into skinny jeans, with rolls of fat everywhere... Ew.

    You still see them everywhere but I agree with Faith, I think alot of girls will be happy to see them go out of fashion

    A-wear are saying to wear smock tops over your skinny jeans so it looks like they are here to stay.

    They are on the way out.
    But many girls love them, so I think they'll be around a good while although they might be "officially" out (meaning celebs won't be seen in them any more).

    I prefer to see them gone. They only look good on really really (!!) skinny girls.

    I agree, too many girls have forced themselves to slavishly follow the skinny jean trend and all too often it wasn't right for them. Just because something is supposedly in fashion thanks to Victoria Beckham or Kate Moss wearing it doesn't mean its a good look............also look at some of the other choices these women make i.e. the men in their lives and you'll see that they aren't always the wisest of women;)

    Hrmm, do you love the look or do you just love the boots?I'm pretty sure we know the answer to that one, don't we Eo980? :D

    Regarding the look itself, still looks well on the right women and is most definately still going. I think those that it didn't suit just realised the truth of the situation and changed to something else.
