There has to be space for compromise between too tight and dumpy (like the tank tops that are all over the bid day photos). The guideline for me - if your jeans bunch at the knee, they're too tight. And if you crease at the crotch, also a big no. I'm old, so take that for what it's worth, but flattering should always be your guide.

Was going to comment on this, but you beat me to it, DubaiSis! You're right on target. I love the colored jean/pant trend, but there is just something about tight skinny jeans...they make girls look a bit like penguins or something! Let's do away with skinny jeans!
Personally I'm a fan of the J. Crew Minnie pant. It comes in many different colors (availability depends on the season) and offers a similar look to a colored skinny jean, but somehow it's a miracle pant that looks great on different body types and
doesn't bunch. Their skimmer pant is similar for a more professional look, again with lots of colors.
