I’m sorry skinny jeans, we’re giving you the boot! Seriously, how have we let this unflattering trend continue for so long! If your legs aren’t as long as a giraffe, and your tush isn’t as tight as the girls on the USA Olympic gymnastics team, then this cut of pants probably isn’t for you!
Yet, we’re all wearing them! If anyone can honestly say they’ve had an enjoyable experience trying on these sausage casing like pants without breaking a sweat and/or crashing into a wall, then you let us know!
So let’s put an end to this trend! Bell bottom and boot cut pants are probably the most flattering style on everyone! They’re also the perfect way to add a vintage flare to any outfit!!
Here are some of our favorites for FW2012! Wear them with a cute pair of booties and you’ll be set for fall! Find all the links here!

4/16: New Shoes, Vintage Look
Just like used panties, cosmetics and jock straps, vintage shoes are something I wouldn’t recommend buying on eBay. Now I’m not just saying this because I want to keep my job as a shoe designer, but because I don’t think anyone wants to wear a stranger’s stinky, sweaty, crusty old shoes.
The good news is, you can still achieve the vintage look you crave, without having to step foot in a used pair. Here are some of my favorite picks for SS (Spring Summer) 2012.
As an aside, you can buy NWT (new with tags) shoes on eBay which I do recommend. Also, I think it’s acceptable to buy vintage shoes at a vintage store because you can thoroughly inspect the crust level in person.
Enjoy :)
Enjoy :)
