Coloured Jeans

    What do you ladies think about coloured jeans? Red and Pink in particular? I've read a few articles about them The Guardian and Daily Mail (Don't judge me)

    I kinda like these ASOS

    Any opinions?

    I do like them. I like the ones you've posted a lot actually. I just don't think I'd wear them myself. I tend to stick more to neutrals and I'm always trying to wear more colour but I think pink jeans would be jumping in at the deep end for me! They're really nice though, and I think they could look great.

    I like them too but im with Novella, i wouldnt buy them for myself but they can look very funky on other girls. Go for it!

    I think the pics in the Daily Mail article look good, but I find that denim dyed bright colours often looks very cheap imo. Unless you're willing to fork out for really good ones it can go pretty badly. That's just me though, if you like them sure go for it.

    I'm a bit sorry I didn't get a pair in Uniqlo a couple of years ago, I do like them. But not red. There's something about the red is weird. I like the pink ones you posted but I have my doubts about asos in general (quality wise)

    I love them, I've been looking all over Dublin for a pair of red high waisted jeans but there are none to be found :(

    I'm really not a fan of them in general - for some reason I always think they look 'dated' (even though they're in fashion now! :D ). That said, however, some girls can really pull them off. So if you like them and they suit you, then go for it!

    I think they look great. I did buy a pair of red ones a while back but have not worn them, just kept backing out. I if you keep the rest of your outfit simple it can really work

    I've been looking for a pair of red skinnies. They have them in Penneys but not recently - so they are sparse and I haven't been able to find a 12. They are also more low rise than I'd like.
    Would love pink though, and Dunnes had turquoise ones last year I liked...

    They have nice pink ones in Zara but I just can't stand hipsters, they're so unflattering on me.

    Weird, that pretty much exactly what I was thinking! Even though they're in fashion again, I think they look dated. They remind me of the great emo trend 2006 :D

    Topshop had them in pastel shades last year and they were quite nice, summery and girly. I wouldn't wear them myself, but they can look nice if you have the figure.

    I love them! My collection includes teal, 2 shades of purple, and neon pink! I need more though! A red pair would be awesome!

    I don't think I could pull them off but I've seen them look nice on some girls. Red and teal are nice.

    +1 to this.

    I tend to stick to dark coloured jeans as they suit me best I think. Looking for a white pair, but haven't found any that aren't see through yet :(

    Hmmmm, I don't think they are very me either.... I don't think I could pull them off. Its one of those trends that I like, but know I can't rock. Ah well, maybe in another life.

    I am tempted by the ASOS ones, but am aware of the ASOS own branded clothes, not exactly the best quality,

    I love coloured jeans ... Dr Denim do great ones and are pretty reasonable ..you'll get them in BT2 . I have a couple of pairs ... pink and white are my fave ones ...be sure to try them on and not buy online , the waist sizes can differ slightly . Oh and they are not low waist .... the main reason why I adore them !!

    Depending on the type between €55 - € 80 ... not too shoddy !!
