I love dark black jeans. I have a pair from last year that I never wore that much so hopefully I’ll wear them. My other pair is faded and might never be worn again.

I have always loved very black jeans, but I’m sticking with straight-leg styles. The problem with black jeans is that you have to replace them often because they don’t stay very black for long. After a few months of washings, they are already noticeably fading, and faded black jeans don’t look good to me at all.

Yes, Julie, I hope to match black skinnies with chestnut boots and a cream or white top. Maroon sounds like it would work too.

Try a straighter leg, Paulajewelry. I have no doubt these will do the trick.

I can’t wait to hear the verdict Joy!

Angie, thank you for this post! The idea of using these black black jeans instead of black pants as a wardrobe staple gave me an “ah ha” moment. These will be more likely to be flattering on my body. I will try both skinny and straight leg styles.

Paulajewelry I think you could wear this style. My Mom is FAB at 60 (and wears a womens 18) and loves her skinny jeans. She wears then with tunic tops and flats.

I’ve just fetched my altered black skinnies. Wow, this takes me back to the 80’s. I never thought I’d be doing this again. They are delicious.

Tanya, both a fitted and voluminous blouse or knitted top would work under the biker jacket. Longer is good if the jacket is cropped.

I see a whole range of possibilities Nafisa. Other than a black top, the world is your oyster with black skinnies. I like the idea of white, cream, yellow, red and cobalt tops best. Tartan too. Oh my. SO ’80’s.

They look great! I’d grab one when it comes to the main stream stores like AT or ATL where most of my jeans came from.

These look amazing. I wouldn’t wear them myself but I love the idea.

I’m a women’s size 18 and over 50. Can I get away with this look or is it too young?
