    I’m waiting for bellbottoms/flares to come back around. They were in when I was formativing and despite them never being in again since, and thus really hard to find, I never stopped wearing them because everything else sucks to me. Skinny jeans make my lower legs feel like they can’t breathe (have the exact same sensory problem with turtleneck and crew neck), and straight leg/boot cut bunch up in horribly uncomfortable ways, especially behind the knee.

    Give me tight to the knee, and then big enough to cover my shoes without touching my legs ever again, please and thank you.

    At 39, think I’m gonna stick with baggy. I order the ones with drawstrings and little ankle cuffs. They’re my hammer pants.

    My high school son dresses pretty much exactly like I did at his age. The other day it was 90’s themed day at school and he was stopped in the hall to take pictures becuase his outfit was so spot on. He had completely forgotten it was 90’s day and just wore his usual attire — a nirvana t-shirt over a thermal long sleeve and a pair of jnco jeans. Kid shops for himself (summer job $$) and I crack a smile every time I see him come home with another thing that could have come from my 90’s wardrobe (except I never could afford name brands).

    I default to regular jeans, but also wear skinny. The problem with skinny jeans is my calves are big enough they can be uncomfortable. But yeah, it’s important to show off my killer ass at every opportunity
