Strange you should be asking that question.I have several skinnies in my wardrobe, although only three pairs are black. The rest are navy blue.I bought mine from Q & A and a store in Churchill Square, in Brighton. Can't think of the flippin' name of it. But they're terrific for buying 'drainpipe'-type jeans in.I don't travel down every other week, mind. I buy about four pairs at a time and they last for yonks.Good luck. And don't forget ya panties first!!! ;o))Love, Russtti G [090407]
