When Skinny Jeans Don't Work

I am going to start this very first post of this blog by critiquing my own outfit. Before I even went out, I knew that I did not like something about it, but instead of spending a bit of time to correct it, I ran out the door as I was already running a bit late. The result - I felt self-conscious throughout the day and especially after posting a couple of these photos on social media. 

What would I change if I were to wear this again? The pants. My prior love for skinny jeans is now backfiring at me. Don't get me wrong, I still love my skinny jeans and will not give them up as I think that work pretty well for my figure; but skinny jeans with this jacket and these boots were just not a good idea. In my opinion, the issue with this look is that the top portion of my body looks fuller than the bottom part, which creates a bit of a disproportionate look. In retrospect, black straight jeans or pants would have been a much better option in this case.
