article: Look at the clothes in your closet the stuff you have from one store is probably not the exact same size as the stuff you have from another. This is normal, if frustrating - clothing sizes usually vary from store to store and brand to brand. Getting the right size jeans is the most important step to making sure your skinnies are comfortable! Take three pairs of jeans into the fitting room with you your usual size, one size smaller than your usual size, and one size larger. This gives you some options right there in the dressing room without having to change back into your clothes and exchange your jeans for another size if they don't fit. Remember that depending on the cut of the jean, you might wear a different size in two different styles from the same brand. Because the actual measurements that correspond to sizes vary from store to store and brand to brand, you'll have to take your own measurements and then check out that brand or store's fit guide, which can usually be found online. To measure your waist, use a piece of string around the narrowest part of your waist, but don't pull too tight! Measure the string against a ruler to determine your measurement. Measure the fullest part of your hips with your feet about 6 inches apart for your hip measurement. Aside from knowing what numbers you should be looking for on the tags of your skinnies, you also need to know if you should be looking for petite, regular, tall, or curvy jeans. These different fits correspond to the measurements of your hips and waist. Petite jeans generally have slightly smaller waist and hip measurements than regular jeans in the same size. Tall jeans tend to have the same waist and hip measurements as regular jeans in the same size, but will have much, much longer inseams. Curvy jeans normally have the same inseam as regular jeans, but slightly larger waist and hip measurements. How often have you tried on a pair of jeans that you loved, but they were either too short or pooled around your shoes? The perfect pair of skinny jeans should come to just below your ankle, without spilling onto the floor. If you're under 5'4" tall, you'll generally want to look for a "short" length jean. If you're between 5'4" and 5'5", you'll generally want a "regular" length jean. If you're taller than 5'6", try a "long" length jean. Whatever the length of your skinny jeans, skinnies should hit you at the same place. Perfect-length skinnies should work with flats, heels, and sneakers, and you should also be able to tuck them into boots without bunching up the material. A good general rule to follow is to find mid-rise skinny jeans, which shouldn't hit you too high or too low at the waist. Focus on finding this type of fit rather than a specific size. If you're looking for curvy skinny jeans, try something with a slightly higher waist. If you're looking for petite skinny jeans, try something that's got a slightly lower waist. This will take some experimenting too, because some people look better in a dark wash and some look better in a lighter wash. Dark washes tend to have a slimming effect, hiding the imperfections we might not want easily visible. Dark wash jeans are also the easiest to take from day to night, so you might want to go with a dark wash if you need a pair of skinnies for an event right after work. Light washes are great for summer skinnies because they pair well with the lighter and brighter colors we tend to wear then. But some light washes can make your legs look bigger and some are see-through! Skinny jeans also come in a lot of different colors and patterns, rather than just denim washes. Small patterns like polka dots or a leopard print won't add any heft to your leg, and vertical stripes will actually slim them. Stay away from overly large prints and horizontal stripes! When buying comfortable skinnies, stretch is going to be the most important factor. You want skinnies with enough stretch that allows you to breathe but also clings to you in the right places. This will vary from body to body and person to person, so you'll have to experiment to find the perfect stretch. But if you pick up a pair of skinnies and they feel super stiff, they probably won't work for you!

Write an article based on this "Voice an unpopular opinion. Use your own vocabulary. Share your true feelings."
article: If you don't agree with what everyone else is saying, speak up. Maybe you don't like the way everyone is making fun of someone, or maybe you have a political opinion different from a friend's. It's ok if you happen to agree with everyone else, but if not, don't be afraid to speak up. Just make sure you do so respectfully. For example, if everyone loves eating at a certain restaurant, but you don't like the food, simply say, "It's not my favorite." How do you naturally speak when you're talking to yourself? That's how you should talk to everyone else. Don't dumb yourself down around some people and try to sound smarter around others. Use words you're comfortable with rather than slang terms you don't like or long words you don't understand. If you like using slang or impressive vocabulary words, that's ok too. Just be sure you're speaking that way for yourself though, not to sound like someone else. If you lie about how you feel, you aren't letting people know who you really are. Focus less on what someone's reaction will be, and think about how this will help someone understand you better. For example, if someone asks you to go dancing, and that's something you don't enjoy doing, tell them that. Then offer to do something else with them so they don't take it personally.

What kind of person are you attracted to? What kinds of traits does he have to have? To attract the kind of person you like, you have to have those traits too. Also look at traits that are complementary - if you're very domestic, you may be happier with a man who doesn't putter in your kitchen but never gripes about mowing the lawn or cleaning the gutters. You don't have to be exactly like your dream man, but if you want someone who is funny and confident, it would help to share these qualities too. He can bring out your best qualities, but he can't force you to take on a new personality. Find a hobby or two that makes you stand out. Whether you like to play sports, paint, play a musical instrument, or go clubbing at night, surrounding yourself with people of your same interests will increase your chances of meeting the man of your dreams while having fun at the same time. Don't think you have any hobbies? Try something creative, you may have unexpected talents and discover it's fun. Go out and volunteer in your community. The more things that interest you, the more likely you'll be to connect with a man you meet. If you have five interests that matter to you, you'll be more likely to find a guy who connects with at least one of them. The more interests you have, the less likely you'll be to obsess over finding the right guy, which will in turn make you much more desirable. Though the guy will get to know you as time goes on, you should start off on the right foot. Make an effort to look nice while staying in your comfort zone when you know you'll have a chance to meet men. Even if you're having a bad day or didn't really feel like going out, you should always be ready with a smile and a joke, because you never know when you'll find the man of your dreams. If you dress to express a subculture like Goth or medieval recreation or something, you'll stand a better chance of finding someone within that subculture but it may put off mainstream guys. Artists are often attracted to women with paint in their hair, mainstream guys might not be. A codependent relationship brings out the worst in both partners and shatters lives. If you grew up in a codependent environment, seek counseling and learn to overcome codependent habits before getting serious about any romantic relationship. You're better off taking your time than enduring the emotional and possibly physical abuse of codependence. That's what it leads to - abuse. If you're willing to give up everything you love about yourself for the man you're with, then you have a big, big problem. Don't try to be someone you're not, or you may get typecast in a narrow role that doesn't include all that you are. If you're normally casual and dress to the nines whenever you meet him, he may reasonably expect you to dress like that all the time and be disappointed once you're together. If you pretend you don't like books and hook up with him, you may wind up spending the rest of your life having an argument every time you want to order from Amazon. If you try to be someone else just to hook him, he'll eventually find out, and he'll feel like you were trying to trick him. This is a key point to staying with the man of your dreams. If you love him instantly, great, but don't blurt it out unless you're sure you've had the most magical chemistry from the start. If you can see him as your husband, the father of your kids, perfect, but don't mention it on your third -- or your tenth -- date. Let things run their course before you both feel serious enough about each other to talk about the future. If the man is really the man of your dreams, then obviously, you'll want to tell him. But if you reveal this too early, you may look like you're a little desperate. In the beginning, keep things light. Go on dates once or twice a week at most, but don't call him every day or try to see him as much as possible in the beginning, or you may scare him away.
