I’m making a groundbreaking move to Brooklyn, NY next week and the most important thing I was told to have ready was a pair of skinny jeans. It was suggested as a necessary by some friends, while some suggested against it.

I decided to give it a try. I went to the Levi’s Outlet store at a nearby mall and asked the woman working about 511 jeans, the “Skinny” fit. She walked me over towards the meager Men’s rack while telling me that they didn’t have much in the Men’s section, but she was an avid converter of dudes to girl’s skinny jeans.

I let her walk me to the girl’s section where we looked at some different finishes and she chose me a size 5 and a 7. I picked up a pair of 514s (slim straight) in the men section and headed to the fitting room. Starting with the men’s, I tried on and succeeded to find a well-fitting pair. Then I tried the 5, thinking that I’m smaller than that (I think I am). When it got stuck on my calf, I moved to the bigger ones and they also stuck on my calf and I now have body image issues because I’m a cow.
