@Shanus I know what you mean....I try to find pants that don't need to be hemmed.  Not always easy but the Q does have a lot of petites!

@haddon9   Unfortunately for  me, the rise in petites is too short. I am able to find some stores that carry jeans in "short", not petite. Levis also come in various lengths.

I wear all three... it just depends on how I feel and what top I am wearing.

In order of preference: bootcut, skinny, straight.

Number one--skinny, number two--straight.

 

I have given up on bootcut because the style looks a little dated to me, and I like to tuck my pants into my boots!

I have skinnies and a few straight legs, but just can't go back the bootcut jeans.

 

Which do you prefer?


@Shanus All.  I only buy classic jeans.  No fad jeans ever. No decoration, no already aged (I do that better myself), no studs or stuff, embroidery, fancy ribbons.

 

I grew up a cowgirl and only wear classic jeans and understand what cowboy boots look like as apposed to cowboy/drugstoreWoman Surprised cowboy boots!  

 

I got a pair of boot cut jeans from Talbots that are 2 inches too long, so am thinking about having them hemmed to more straight leg style or simply cutting them off for the ragged edge.  REAL ones are ragged in the back from you walking on them.

Re: SKINNY, STRAIGHT OR BOOTCUT (JEANS)?

I wear straight and slim-straight.

Don't like anything tight against my legs.

Skinny because I can't stand fabric flapping around my ankles.

Re: SKINNY, STRAIGHT OR BOOTCUT (JEANS)?

I don't think I own a pair of boot cut or wide leg jeans.  I think those with a slender, straight leg are by far the most flattering on me.
