I will consider what you said about the tone of the colors/level of distressing being what is incompatible with the jacket. But I agree with you that distressing on skinny jeans seems to help them work with the more "punk" aspects of steampunk. Hmmmm, and maybe THAT is really the issue--that the top half of me is more "citizen" while the bottom half is more "inventor/mechanic." I'll definitely think about that more.

I like the style of jacket with them, I think the proportions are fine, I think it is the styles that are throwing you off. The jeans are distressed and very "worn in" looking while the jacket is very polished and dignified in appearance. I bet if you did a skinny jean in a darker wash with less distressing it might work with that jacket. Of course that might take some of the steampunky goodness out of it.
