Ok,

I'm 5ft and 136lbs, I am a UK size 10/12 which I think is US 8.....my widest part of thigh is 23"

Would skinny jeans be wrong??

    i don't think so, as long as you are comfortable and they fit right, who cares! Rock it girl! I've always worn skinny jeans, and my biggest size was 11. I'm 5'2'' and I was 160lbs.

    Just make sure to get the right size so there isn't any muffin top action.

    The ability to pull off skinny jeans is more about proportion than weight. My friend who is overweight also has very long legs proportionate to her body and skinny jeans look great on her. Whereas I am not overweight at all but my legs are stocky so my proportions make skinny jeans look awful.

    I'm pear shaped and would say they are not for me, even though I am more torso-short than leg-short. I also don't think they look good on skinny boys or girls that look like skinny boys. But if you like them, who cares.

    I think it's all about proportion and the kind of top you wear. I have larger thighs so I always wear a longish, flowing top with my skinny jeans. It downplays my thighs and makes everything look more proportionate.

    I'm 5'5" and 158 lbs. I wear a size 12. When I wear my skinny jeans, I get compliments all the time about how thin I look. I am pretty curvy, I have hips, shoulders and a small waist. Maybe it's because I don't normally wear form fitting clothes, I don't know.

    Based on what you say, you will totally rock skinny jeans!

    It will be a try before you buy, also check out different colors and styles there are so many different sorts (high waist, low waist, different leg lengths, cigarette cut (slightly looser shorter cut) plus different colors will have different effects (darker solid colors are more slimming) so try on a bunch, and don't give up right away, skinny jeans are not for every one, but hopefully you'll find a style that fits, and def got the right size, like another poster mentioned, muffin top on skinny jeans is a big NONO

    NO!
