Skinny Jeans with Boots

The hot look in fashion is skinny jeans with boots. This fashion was on display in a big way at the two recent events in Southern California this week. The jeans are generally dark indigo. No light and faded hues were to be found. The boots varied quite a bit from light colored cowboy styles to inky, shiny patent leather with high fashion toes and heels. Boot heights varied from short and slouchy to over-the-knee looks. The jeans wear paint-roller smooth and tight from the waist (or low on the hips) all the way down to where they disappear into the boots. The boots seem to be the key to weather or not this look works on varied body types. Short or thicker legs get a slimming effect from lower boots. Long lean legs just get longer and leaner as the boots get taller, making a slimming look appear even slimmer. I am curious to see how this style plays out in Chicago and in New York at the spring shows there.
