MOTOCROSS: Skintight and biker-esque

WHAT YOU NEED: "A simple, clean, and structured top—you can't go wrong with solid tanks and cropped jackets."

HOW THEY SHOULD FIT: "Make sure they're snug from top to bottom, and they don't sit too high or too low on the waist."

    MISS MARIE WHY ARE YOU YELLING???

    Malena- lmfao!! I loved your comment. As I try not to judge people, because its absolutely an ignorant thing to do (as we all have our own taste in style), I have to admit that I have shaken my head a few times when I seen the 'muffin tops'.

    to be safe, put the waist of the jeans around your neck if you have a little space left "Their Perfect!"

    Jacque,

    One would think a Vegas street-walker would be more "effeciency conscious" when putting together an outfit.

    I will say- I do not like how all of the models are super skinny and all of the jeans are snug for the most part. I as well am a 5', curvy, 22 year old. I know for a fact that I do not look good in skinny jeans because they weren't made for women with curves.

    (Honestly, I think skinny jeans are unflattering and make girls look like boys and vise versa. Why would someone want that?)

    I agree-- boot cut is a favorite cut of mine too. I find medium and low-rise jeans flattering than high-waisted jeans too 70s/80s. For women with tummies, I'd go for high-waisted without pleats.

    I really do want skinny jeans to go out of style because men, women, teenagers, no one for that matter looks good in them. Usually their butt area is saggy and empty or when it's filled, they get plumber's crack, which is also unattractive.

    And to note on the "blue jeans" comment- there is no problem with a man dressed in nice, fitted blue jeans, cowboy style in my eyes. ;)

    My boyfriend would pull them off nicely! (He's got a really cute butt.)
