Denim has reached unbelievable heights in the last ten years. Currently it is one of the most versatile fabrics in the fashion world. Denim goes with everything. You can dress it down with a simple white tee, or go as far as to dress it up with a Chanel jacket. There are no limits. Designers have gone wild creating different cuts, colors, and textures. There is an excellent range of styles available to women. Now, everyone can find a pair that fits well. We’ve pulled some of our favorite styles to show you. First there is the boot cut, which is probably the most universally flattering style. It’s a well proportioned cut that works on most body types. Next, the straight leg. This style has a straight line from the hip down. It’s a narrow cut, and may prove to be too slender for some women. Then there is the wide leg. This jean fits lean through the thigh, and flares below the knee. It’s cut makes the leg appear longer and slimmer. Another style is the skinny jean. The fit is tight to the leg. It’s probably one of the more difficult styles to wear; it’s very unforgiving. Another style that has recently resurfaced is the high-waisted jean. It sits high on the waist, and accentuates a woman’s body beautifully. As you can see, there are plenty of styles to choose from. There are also a lot of washes and colors to choose from. First, every girl should have a pair of dark denim. They are easier to dress up, and look clean, classic, and smart. There is also the slightly worn wash. This works really well for everyday and casual events. Lighter denim washes have appeared for Spring. We’re leery of the very light wash denim; it’s not nearly as forgiving as the dark denim. If you want to grab on to the trend, you may need to go up a size. The sizing is the same for white denim, you may want to go up a size. We love white denim for summer, it’s crisp and clean. Hopefully this helps you in your search for the perfect pair of jeans. Remember, you should buy what you feel most comfortable and confident in. That will shine through, and you will radiate.

balancing act

Dressing the trends properly these days is all about balance and proportion. Skinny jeans, wide leg pants, high waisted pencil skirts, and flowing tops, how do we pull it all together? For starters, balancing it out is a good place to start. If you wear skinny jeans, pair it with a flowy less constructed top. Balance the tight with the loose, and you will achieve a more sophisticate style. Wide leg pants can be worn with a fitted top or belted tunic. A high waisted pencil skirt calls for a blousy top tucked in, which will give you an elegant hourglass silhouette. Don’t be afraid to play with some of fashion’s latest trends, even if you think you can’t wear them. It may take a little closet time, but once you figure out the balance and proportion that works for you - you’ll feel (and look) updated and fresh.
