fashion confusion

Last week I was reveling in the fact that I am among the first generation of women to wear blue jeans and this week I hear on the news, in a fashion piece, that jeans are out and skinny yoga pants are in.  Don't they understand that jeans hold you in and make you look skinny while skinny soft yoga pants will stretch in all the wrong places.  I think, for women of my age, it's going to be a very slow conversion.
