Spotted: Jennifer Lopez looking casually cute in LA. While glamour is her forte, Lopez pulls off simple quite effortlessly. Notice how her slit jeans graze the top of her suede Yves Saint Laurent platform pumps, instantly elongating her legs. This trend is fairly new, so you can buy the expensive versions shown below or be savvy and listen up.
For Jennifer's look, grab a longer pair of skinny jeans out of your closet, and with a pair of scissors, cut a four-inch incision up the outer seam of leg. For a more polished hem, make a trip to your tailor. Simple, huh?

yeah I don't consider JLo a trend setter or fashionable at all.
1i have to say that this trend makes even the most gorgeous women look like they've got saddlebags. no thanks!
2EWW, She does not look good...
3I've been sporting my split J brands for a year and a half now!
4Maybe it's just the length of the top, but "leg-lengthening" was not even the in the top five of terms I thought of to describe that look...
5don't know why... but i just hate the word 'slit'
i know it's silly.
6this is NOT NEW!
we did it in MIDDLE SCHOOL in the mid 90s!
7wow...those are not going her any justice at all....yikes. She must have pissed her stylist off that day.
8IMO she looks nice - simple and casual. I guess that's what most of us non-celebrities wear out right? jeans, simple top and heels. If that is wrong...a lot of us are doing wrong. But the difference is of course she has got on gorgeous (and expensive) shoes and bag.
9do they really elongate your legs - I've seen slit jeans before, and I've even worn them, but I don't see how they have any effect other than being aextra decoration - I think it can look cute, but I don't see it as extraordinary...
10I was wondering if anyone knew the brand of shoes her friend is wearing?
And I saw black J Brands and thought they looked amazing, I don't know if it's the colour that doesn't make it look that appealing. And I agree how does a slit make your legs look longer?
11**black pair of J Brands like those and thought they looked amazing. Wow, missed a lot of words there, lol, sorry.
12I like them but I don't see how they make your legs look longer.
13I've never been a fan of skinny jeans. (I flatly refuse to wear pants that arent super wide or flares.) But I might take the scissors to some of my old jeans to see how it looks!
14Sooo 80s...but I like them.
15yeah, my friends and I were doing this in 8th grade...cutting up the seams of our tapered jeans at the hem...when I think back on it, I realize how ridiculous we must have all looked...and how annoyed our parents must have been that we were cutting up our jeans...what a mess junior high was
16i'm so thrilled that this look is back in style because i used to do this ALL the time when i had jeans back like 5-6 years ago. but i didn't do it with skinny skinny jeans - i did it with straight leg jeans to fit over boots...
17i like her bag and sunglasses!
