“Instead of pairing your skinny jeans with a plain T-shirt, rethink your denim and wear it layered beneath your favourite full skirt or dress.” — Erin Sumwalt, StyleWatch
"I love styling skinny jeans with a good pair of moto boots and a Wes moto jacket. I would probably avoid wearing skinny jeans with a super-tight tank. I like having a looser top or jacket on instead." — Rebecca Minkoff
"Although it's a go-to for many women, I'm not a fan of skinny jeans with high heels. I find that going for flats, whether it's ballet flats or cute loafers, comes off as more sophisticated." — Melissa Rubini, InStyle
