I think only a few people can pull them off. I personally do not wear them... I've never tried them on before :P

My body doesn't seem like the type that would look good in the, though.

idk. they aren't very flattering, probably on me. i'm short. ;o

but, i've never really seen anyone wearing them unless it's in magazines or something.

what i don't like is when bigger girls wear "skinny" jeans. aah! not flattering. if you're bigger go for a straight leg.. jeez.

I think they look odd. More for tall people.

Nope, no wide legs or high waisters. I prefer skinny jeans, which I think I pull off okay.

I like 7 for All Mankind Dojos. I wear them with tigher fitted tops and flats. When I first pulled them on I thought my thighs looked HUGE but it was because the leg was wide through the knee... I've grown used to them and quite like them now.

I also like the J Brand Lovestory jeans but haven't gotten a pair. I think one pair of wide legs is plenty.

i am too short for wide-leg jeans, but i think they look amazing on tall and somewhat skinny figures. if i could actually wear wide-leg jeans, i would probably pair it with a fitted top and shoes that peek out, so it's not terribly overwhelming.

For some reason, they only look good in..magazines. I haven't seen anybody wearing wide leg out in the streets/school yet, but it will probably become a trend. (Which it is already one)
But of course, tall & skinny people can totally pull it off. I guess petite girls could too..but you would just need a top to balance it out.

I really don't like them. Maybe its cause I dislike flares to begin with so wide leg just reminds me of supersuper flare. I'm too short to pull the look off anyway. I've never seen anyone wear it near where I live. But I guess the tall can pull it off well.

i likee them. of course some people can't pull it off; there are always people who can't pull off the trends.

i've tried them on and they fit my body type, but it's just a trend - i'm not spending $30 on a trend.

I'd be worried they'd make my legs look fat. Plus, I don't want people to think I'm wearing bellbottoms.

So I am sorta-kinda wearing wide-legged pants right now. Kinda'. Actually, they're my brother's super huge Dickies that only fit me at the waist but is super loose everywhere else and I must say - they definitely resemble wide-leg jeans. Imo, they're better than flares. But srsly - the tall and skinny should wear them. I'm not, but I have no choice (it's a long story). Pair them with a fitted top and heels, and if the difference seems too severe from the wide-legged and the fitted, just throw on a semi-fitted jacket. Just don't zip or button up. :]
