Skinny love won't last the year WILL we ever see the end of skinny jeans? My recent break-up diet of ice-cream and Tim Tams means I need something a little roomier. I am happy to be the bearer of good news in these difficult times: the reign of the skinny jean is coming to an end. After so many years of being strangled around the nether regions, it's time for everyone to take a deep breath - a feat you'll actually be able to achieve in these babies. Just don't be put off by the name: boyfriend jeans are the new byword for relaxed cool. They should look like you've literally picked them up off a gentleman friend's floor and thrown them on with a devil-may-care attitude. Even better if they look worn in, slightly slouchy and distressed - just like some ex-boyfriends, come to think of it. Sass & bide's The Time Limit jeans have that appeal, while J.Brand's Aidan style is slimmer-fitting but looks worn in. Roll up the cuffs and pop on some animal-print stilettos to show that ex what's what.
