Maternity skinny jeans?

Sprite2012 · August 2012

I think I was a bit optimistic when I bought these. Now I'm wondering if I'll look ridiculous because I can't think of a single pregnant girl I've ever seen wearing them. Is it okay to wear skinny maternity jeans? Or does it look ridiculous?

For that price..I would definitely wear them!!! Pair them with a empire waist/dressy type of shirt and you should be good!

On a side note....I could never justify buying maternity pants for that price especially since you only wear them for a little while!

If you can afford them, get them and I'll be jealous

I'm refusing to by maternity jeans because the ones I've seen aren't "skinny."

I got something similar to that from Burlington coat factory- and so far everyone says they look good on me, so i've been going with it! lol

I feel good in them but I never wore them prior to pregnancy either!

I'm kind of a designer jean junkie :-/ I know they're pricey, but I thought they were cute. I just wonder if skinny jeans and a big belly clash too much!

I have a pair of maternity skinny kahki pants that i wear to work all the time...super comfy!!

I think skinny jeans def go with pregnancy! I didn't want to spend a lot, so found a cheapo pair at Burlington Coat Factory, but if you've got the cash go for the designer ones.

Pregnant or not, I think it best to balance them with a bigger, loose fitting top. And when I wear regular jeans/pants I try to wear more snug tops. I think having that sort of balance is most flattering. All baggy is not flattering, and all tight is just weird when preggo (except for yoga!).

I wish I could be!! Jealous! Skinny jeans don't fit me "right" so I'm not one to wear them but if they are comfy, I would do it!

I just bought some skinnies a couple weeks ago, and now I wear them prob 3 or 4 times a week. AND you can wear them with boots soon! I would get them for sure.

I completely agree! I'll have to play with what tops I can wear with these jeans. I just wanted to make sure I wouldn't look like a whale on toothpicks if I wore these in public!

Yep! I'm a skinny jean wearer pre-pregnancy, so I have some super cute boots that I don't want to miss out on wearing!

Me, wearing skinny jeans, pregnant. I don't wear anything else. The ones I have are Pea In A Pod and I have some Heidi Klum brand twill skinnies coming in the mail Friday. I think, if anything, they accentuate the bump and kind of make it look bigger.. which, I don't have a problem with because duh, I'm pregnant, why wouldn't I have a baby bump? Anyway, hope that helps. Yes

You look adorable! And I looked at the Heidi Klum brand twill skinnies too. You'll have to let me know what you think of them (I've never worn any of her stuff).

Thanks ladies! I will wear my new skinny jeans with confidence :-)

I don't normally wear skinny jeans even before being pregnant. But I came across some on clearance at Old Navy awhile back so I grabbed them. I feel like I look like a whale in them now, but everyone says that I still look cute in them. So I say get them if you want...

I love maternity skinny jeans. I have two pairs from H&M.. I say go for it!

arybak13 · August 2012

I say rock it. Personally, I look ehh in skinny jeans unless I'm wearing heels w/ them --- these feet haven't seen heels in months. If you have the figure to wear skinny jeans and flats, by all means, go for it!!!

LuckyMissus · August 2012

Go for it!! I have a pair and they're my favorite. I wouldn't wear them pre-preg bc I always thought my thighs looked too chunky, but now I think the belly kind of balances them out, bonus!

NicOB · August 2012

The way I see it is that skinny jeans aren't all that different than leggings, just more structured. I have one pair now and a black pair on the way. I have boots that only look good with skinny jeans, no way I was going to give them up!

I have 2 pairs of Gap skinny maternity jeans that I wear on casual Fridays or on the weekends. I pair them with heels a cute top and a blazer/vest/sweater or belt. I love them.

DHelenL9 · August 2012

Cute jeans. I just picked up a pair at H&M a few weeks ago, but haven't worn yet. My plan was to wear with boots (and yes, a long shirt to distract from the width of my hips and bootie)

I think Old Navy and Gap have some skinny maternity jeans. I got a pair from Old Navy only because they were on sale for $15 and they looked great. I out grew the band but I loved wearing them.

GHBEA · August 2012

I LOVED mine.

Those are super cute! I'm WAY to cheap for that. I'm too cheap for even cheap maternity clothes. I'm still trying to make pre pregnancy jeans work with a belly band, I'll have to try and dig some out soon. I DID just buy a bin of maternity clothes from a girl on craigs list. $20. Score

llevine · August 2012

I've been wearing maternity skinny jeans. I love them. If you can wear them and look good, why not!!! I bought Citizens of Humanity maternity jeans from Piperlime in the beginning of my pregnancy and I love them. I decided I'd spend the crazy $$$ on one style of jeans and get the other ones from gap.
