skinny jeans are jeans that are like reg at the top and start to get tinier and skinnier towards the bottom... in my opinion they are reall cute but on the right person i personally wouldnt wear it myself... it only looks good on peopl who wear them because they like them not because they are aloser and follow wherever the paradigm goes they are like followers if you wear them and make them your own they are really cute... but i stick w/regular jeans OH and they look really good w/chucks, flats, and heals last two for like the average person thats more preppy but yeah..
