maternity skinny jeans?

MaybeBabyTime · March 2012

Gap's were looking pretty good to me (online). But the reviews say they aren't truly skinny....and skinny is what I am going for. I am short (5'3") so length is an issue too. I really wish the Gap ones didn't get bad reviews because they carry short.

Where did you get your skinnys?

Old Navy and Motherhood

I got mine at Topshop. I think you have it now in the US, right?

I didn't like Old Navy's, but I wear my Gap skinnies almost every day! They are a little bit loose around the ankles, but no where close to being a straight leg. For me, they work great with heels and flats.

I had the same issue with the Old Navy, Motherhood, and Pea in the Pod skinnies - they were more straight leg at the ankle, way too much leftover material not hugging close to the leg. I tried the ON Maternity Jeggings but omg the fit was so heinous, they were a colossal fail.

The J Brand maternity skinnies are amazing. They're pricey, but they're true to size, true to fit, they move with you.. love love love. I bought a pair from shop bop and then found two pairs of colored denim on Ebay for 1/2 price.

The gap skinny jeans looked like mom jeans on me and that was after going down 2 sizes!

I decided to try on some designer skinny jeans at pea in the pod and ended up with ag stilt jeans. A lot if designer skinnys aren't that long, so I got away with not needing to hem mine.

I got the Old Navy under belly jeggings and the fit like a skinny jean. They are a bit long for me- I am also 5'3"- but they work. Also, I got the smallest size they carry. I am normally a 2, but ended up with a 1.

I have gap maternity skinny jeans and they fit great (and I'm 5'2"). I got the full panel and they are extremely comfortable.

I also have some of the long and lean gap maternity jeans in the demi-panel. They fit/look great, but the demi-panel can be a lot of pressure on the belly.

Silver jeans from Pea in the Pod. They are jeggings, but actually a little thicker so it provides great support everywhere and are super comfortable. They easily tuck into boots. They run big, I got an x-small (I was a size 4, 122 lbs pre-preg) and may be a little long for you. I'm 5'5 and they fit pretty well length wise. They are a little pricey but totally worth it.

I just bought two pair of skinny cords from Gap and LOVE them. I don't know why I would ever say they weren't actual skinny pants - they fit me like skinny jeans do. I would definitely recommend them to try out, especially since they have short for you.

I have 3 pairs of these ones. https://www.motherhood.com/Product.asp?Product_Id=973160447&MasterCategory_Id=MC28

I got some AG Jeans skinnies from Pea in the Pod. They were expensive but totally worth it.

I looked around and tried pairs at Gap and Destination Maternity (Motherhood/Pea in the Pod combined) and nothing worked. The Gap didn't have ankle in the style I wanted, and the regular length in that style were really weird--the fade pattern was really unattractive and they bunched so badly at my knees. I found a perfect pair wash/length-wise at Destination Maternity, but they were sewn incorrectly! The butt pockets were totally uneven and they didn't have a pair that were sewn correctly, and for $80+, I wasn't going try finding another pair at another store only to have the same quality issues.

I ended up ordering two pairs from Old Navy -- one pair of skinnys with a full panel and a pair of red jeggings (under belly woven waist) and both were perfect, other than the length. They are being altered for length now--I'm 5'4'' and needed to take about 3-4 inches off both pairs.

I got mine at Old Navy. I've been pretty happy with them.

I have these as well, I am 5'1" and have to roll them up about an inch but other than that love the fit!

I got amazing ones at H&M. I got a pair in black and a dark blue pair. Thy fit like my pre pregnancy jeans and are very stylish. If you want o spend the extra money Detination Maternity has nice designer ones like sevens, and Joes.
