So it’s been “move in day” (move in days?) for the past two days and instead of blogging about all the nervous/excited/scared frosh who eagerly wait to go to their first frat party, go(ditch) their first class, have their floor dinner, etc. etc., I’m going to blog about skinny jeans. Because I can. Also because I’m shallow.
“Have you ever wondered what we’re all going to do when skinny jeans aren’t cool anymore? How will we distinguish ourselves from the masses of men who shop in River Island and think anything with a huge all over print and a women on the front makes them trendy?
It scares me. Even Topman, the place to shop for the up and coming Indies before they discover Urban Outfitters, has widened it’s range of bootcut jeans. Aren’t you going to miss being given those funny looks by macho builders, shouting things from their white vans, the feeling of a tiny bit of individuality, before you go to some festival and realise you all look the same and end up thinking you are cooler than everyone else because your jeans are Cheap Monday? We’ve all done it, and if not then your jeans simply aren’t tight enough.
So do you know who we owe this to? Yes that’s right, a band who have influenced modern Indie music and given us the skinny jeans and recently, a reason to read women’s magazines in order to find out what’s going on with Agyness.”

There’s something about having a piece of raw denim strapped tightly to your legs that’s mildly addicting and slightly even more fashionable.
That being said, will you be my corona and lime? I’ll be your…you know…main squeeze. With skinny jeans. Or something.
His debut album is out, and it probably sucks. Whatever.
