On her it looks great, on anyone else heavier or significantly shorter, and it would be a disaster.

I do not think she looks good in them.

I'm thin (111 lbs) but 5'4".  I pinned it.  But sewing when I get time this weekend)  It's pretty low.  Most of my jeans are high, but these newer ones are low rise. I got this at Nordstrom.

I rocked some jeans that looked just like these in the 70's. But, alas, I was a mere 115 lbs back then. Nice memory, though. I loved them.

Do you think it showed up from cookies when you ordered.  
I love these jeans. What is the style name? I couldn't find them when I just looked. Thanks 

 I'm tired of super high waist skinny jeans. I'm smaller than you but I don't think have to be thin to wear these though.

I love them but my DD can wear them this time around. I had my chance back in the day and looked good if I do say so, I was tall and thin.  I should have saved them!  Enjoy

I wore that exact same style of jeans back in 1974 with a black leotard. Been there done that. I will let the next generation of women wear them and pass the baton...everything old is new again, it seems.

I was thinking circa 1969.  Yeah, I wore them back in the day, too, but I weighed about 100 lb. soaking wet lol.  I think I'll let them for the younger folks this time around.

Today, I wore jeans very similar to these but high-waisted. I also wore these back in the 70's but can still rock them now at 65. I always get compliments when I wear these to work. I have the same jeans in a darker wash too. Today, a young girl shouted out that she liked my pants when I was walked past her, on the street. 🙂
