Yellow Skinny Jeans

I've had yellow skinny jeans for a little over 6 months and have only worn them a few times. Granted in the summer I wore mostly shorts and they were also too big for awhile.  The outfits to the left are actual outfits I've worn with my skinny jeans.  Well the white tank top outfit is actually just  me trying on new clothes I bought at the store that day.  What outfit is your favorite? Mine is the bottom right with the orange and yellow but with the white cardigan so it's not so orange/yellow.

The trouble I have with my skinny jeans isn't so much what top to wear with them but what shoes. (I mean I still have a little trouble with what shirt to wear but not as bad as when I first got them.)

I tried doing a google image search for some ideas but most of them are impractical. I want to wear shoes with my skinny jeans that I can handle walking to and from Target in. The dressy pumps shown below might not be comfortable enough for that.

Below I tried a few different shirts, some different accessories, and different shoes.  What do you think? Would you wear bright yellow jeans in the fall?  I feel like I should be wearing more fall colors like browns and mustard but the only colorful jeans I have are bright yellow so that's what I'm working with.  
I miss being able to go out on my front porch and leave the camera there while I took some pictures.  Each time I came back in the apartment today I felt odd leaving my camera out in the hallway so I brought it back in half the time.  I was uneasy most of the time. Good thing I took a few pictures with each outfit because I was not smiling in half the pictures.

  1. I like those! Cute! The outfits in the bottom right of each are the ones I like best.

    I think that they definitely work for fall. Super bright and cheerful! I wouldn't be able to wear them, but I think they look great.

  2. Thanks
    The bottom photo has 5 with the same outfit but different accessories at my neck. I actually like that necklace one of the least because it doesn't stay put.

    They are super bright which is why I am more afraid to wear them in the fall. People wear fall colors not bright colors in the fall.

  3. Top set, like the top row first on the left.
    Bottom set, like the top row second on the left even though really like the pink heels.

    1. top row on the left was my second favorite.

      also i could do the pink heels with the pink shirt to get the best of both worlds i guess.

  4. I just bought bright yellow corduroy pants. They're fine for fall.

    1. I need better shoes to wear with them. The only time I leave the house involves lots of walking. I need better shoes. Any suggestions?

      I think I need some boots that are flats or something.

  5. Top row, top left is my favorite. Not a fan of the black strappy shoes with them. I would wear nude shoes if you had them, but I do like the pink. Def good for fall, especially in Cali

    1. Black strappy sandals are the only sandals I had for awhile but the bad part is they are the most comfortable of any of the shoes pictured above so I wear them when I need to walk to the store or something. I need new shoes bad. But my next purchase I want some cognac boots which I don't think would even go with these yellow pants but I just want them. (If only I had money but also only if I could find some I like. I think I'm picky or something.) I have nude shoes. http://scrapandrun.blogspot.com/2012/10/1027.html and for some reason I never though fo wearing them with yellow.

  6. I don't like straps of any kind with the skinny jeans. Stick to the basic pumps you used above (maybe get a kitten heel if they are too high?) or ballet flats....ballet flats would look lovely!
    I like the idea of the boot, but black/yellow looks like you are trying to be a Steeler....go with a brown...not a red-brown, but a light brown.

    I wear bright color all year round :-)

    My favorites are the white tops with the big accessory (scarf or necklace) and the pump.

    1. The pumps in the top set are no more. They bit the dust after a trip to the mall and GIant Eagle. After that trip they hurt my feet so bad with a single step. They were comfortable before that.

      I have a kitten heel black shoes but they have a little bow so they feel dressier than the pants to me. Looking for a pic of them I realized I have 2 pairs of kitten heels. http://scrapandrun.blogspot.com/2012/05/515.html and http://scrapandrun.blogspot.com/2012/03/36.html

      I don't have ballet flats. Usually they are too bad for my arches and plantar fasciitis.

      Around here you can wear black and yellow and other colors and nobody thinks of the Steelers. But I never did it in PA. Also I wouldn't do it around here for awhile because I thought I was a Steeler fan. The yellow is so bright that my brown doesn't look good next to them. I held up my brown boots but I didn't take any pictures wearing them. I think a mustard yellow would go great with brown but I do not have that. I do have lighter brown boots on my wish list but I never find any I like/that fit me.

      White top was my default option but I was trying to branch out because I thought I couldn't wear white every time. I do have more scarves that could work but I got annoyed trying to take pictures. I didn't like leaving my camera out in the hallway while I ran inside to switch things up and bringing it back inside made it take too long.

      Thanks for your opinions.
