Open W I D E !!!

I was surfing through my favorite site net-a-porter and I must say that 70s style jeans are back in a big (and wide) way just like I knew it would back in October 2006 and April 2007!

If you are on the look-out for wide legged jeans, Citizens of Humanity (Faye Wide Leg Jeans)...

Seven for all Mankind (Ivy Pant in Yosemite)...

and 18th Amendment (Colbert High Waisted Flared Jeans)...
...(why do these cult labels have such out-of-this-world names?) have some pretty nice ones.

I actually saw wide legged 7s for kids (if you're petite, the bigger kids sizes would fit just fine!) at Filene's Basement in Boston for $89.99 a pair. The Paper Denim & Cloth ones were only $49.99 at TJ Maxx! So there are some great bargain buys out there if you keep your eyes open!

But why should you look further when trusty Topshop still has the K jean? I suggest you check this one out!!!



I swear these wide legged jeans helped turn the original Charlie's Angels into fashion icons (in my book that is)!

i like the 18th amendment jeans that you featured :) they're heart-racing and i'm sure very very expensive. my sister loves citizen of humanity, but they're uber expensive even in the US i heard. - - - too bad the only close thing you'll find in manila are rip offs of the real thing in greenhills :(

Hi Cons! That would go well with cropped jackets, fitted sweaters and blouses! Nice to pair it with wedges too! Work those wide legged jeans girls!

Hi. I just returned from the States and so am not so up-to-speed with the shopping haunts in Manila anymore. Where can one find Citizens for Humanity? Word has it there is a boutique in Manila already. Thanks!

Hi! Try Mix in Greenbelt, got mine there! =) As far as I know, the only jeans label I know with a freestanding store/boutique in Manila are Seven for All Mankind and Diesel!
