from the fall eddie bauer catalog, people. i am quite sure those would qualify as "pegged" pants back in the day. circa carey crouse, 1990ish, without the heels.

i called it. and yes, you who scoff the jegging...i also call that YOU will be rolling them up above the ankle, perhaps even folding the cuff over and pegging them.

again.

oh dear...oh dear, oh dear, oh dear...not made for my shape at all... I will laugh out loud the first time I see a real live person wearing their jeans like this...and yes, I did it in the 80's, too :)

i am so happy! love the pegging!

i will do a little bit looser shape however, than in the past, for the very reasons rani has mentioned ;)

i will say that i was a die-hard pegger. it's a look that works very well for tall girls who usually can't find pants long enough. i can see myself going back...possibly bringing out the hair crimper and the bandanas, maybe even the little tiny braid on the side...

i draw the line at the cobra bangs.

I always loved that braid. Will you please let your hair be red again, too? I was missing that just this morning while I made spaghetti sauce. Don't ask me why.

I hate the jegging, but could probably handle pegging again. As long as it doesn't require heels. I am ridiculous in heels.

I am not sure about pegging again...but I can fully support the jeggings! They are the best...in fact I am wearing them today.

Octopi.

I think it's a positive sign that you've moved on from sharks.

Um, Trevor would like to know if we plan on sleeping on the beach.

I think I may have just bought a pair of jeggings (or am I getting them confused with skinny jeans).
Really no red?? *sigh* or the braid and bandanas, no one can wear a bandana like Carey

the morning show had a story (CBS) about how sharks are more afraid of humans than humans are afraid of them...just so you know:)

I laughed so hard when I first read this post. I loved loved pegging, even though I didn't know it had a name. I remember being really sad that the fad went away. Now I'm not sure. I like rolling my pants, does that count?
