Also, I don't care about trends: jeans/trousers with tapered legs are not flattering on pretty much every body shape I've seen wear them. If this really is a trend that's coming (I've seen more and more tragically tapered jeans walking around town), then I'm very happy to be untrendy.

Wow. No, I don't like those, but they are similar to how my new pants are. *g* I don't like them, but as mentioned, that's all they had this time. I am not a fashion person so I don't really care except for comfort. The last ones I had were flared and I hated those just as much. OTOH, back in the '80s, "leggings" and stirrup pants were popular, and everyone wore those, I hated them. *g*

One thing I also don't like is the trend for really, really long shirts again. I like reasonable length, but not something as long as a mini-dress--something that comes over my hips and onto my thighs. That is really not a flattering look for me. *g*

Yeah, I would keep shopping even if that meant more work. No way am I wearing those. Straight leg jeans are always made somehwere.

Word on the big shirts. I might as well put on a frigging muumuu.

hehe Yeah, but I don't wear regular jeans--never. *g* I only wear these stretchy ones with the elastic waist, and that's it. I suppose they are "old lady" jeans, but I like them and they are slightly better than wearing sweatpants around everywhere. *g*

LOL But the ones I tried on...they're more like those body shirts from the 70s. They are clingy and tight, so they show every bump on your hips or whatever.

I've seen a few younger girls who could pull that off, but they seem to wear two t-shirts: one longer one and one shorter one over it. It's an odd look. But what about us old ladies? *g* (And I mean me, not you. *g*) Except older shirts on clearance, I couldn't find any that weren't this long & clingy type. lyraeinne also didn't like them, even though she's thin and has a lovely figure, and she also hasn't been able to find any shirts that she likes for going-back-to-school clothes.
